I am getting my teen Dd some books for Christmas. I have been thinking about the books I loved at that age, and the ones I felt had a message and were about women.

I am thinking about Angela Carter, Erica Jong and Fay Weldon (showing my age here), who are the equivalent writers of today, you would recommend for a teenager?

Non-fiction, but my teenage dd liked Delusions of Gender by Cordelia Fine.

Also I know people have mixed views of her, but Caitlin Moran is fun and I think worth reading.

The power

I love Caitlin Moran but do understand she’s not everyone’s cuppa chai

Tamara Pierce (strong female lead),
Sarah J Mass - maybe Divergent, The Hunger games, vN by Madeline Ashby.
