Book recommendations please

[northender]

My 20yo dd has asked for a book about feminism for Christmas so I'm looking for recommendations please. My feminist views have been informed/shaped through life experience and the FWR pages on here but I haven't read any books.

I really enjoyed 'Difficult Women' A History of Feminism in 11 fights'

Invisible Women has to be a classic

Thanks Nordic she's got that but says she wants something more theoretical but not too heavy...

I second this!

Hello @northender,

I can HIGHLY recommend this fabulous book!

The Women Pop Culture Wants You To Hate
UNLIKEABLE FEMALE CHARACTERS
Anna Bogutskaya

I really could not put it down!

I had to buy it for all my girlfriends who have teenage daughters as it is just so, so good!

Enjoy!

My favourite feminist book is The Second Sex.

Others:

The Female Eunuch
Everyday Sexism
Hood Feminism
We Should All be Feminists
Invisible Woman
The Penguin Book of Feminist Writing
Women, Race and Class* *

Thanks I will have a look at those

I went for this in the end but will keep a note of the other recommendations, thanks all x
