Feminism: A Beginner's Guide | Sally J. Scholz

[#BookTag] In honor of celebrating International Women‘s Day just a few days ago I decided to do The Feminist Book Tag! What is your favorite book that has feminist themes? I‘d love more suggestions. 📚🤗💪🏻

http://heathersreadinghideaway.blogspot.com/2018/03/the-feminist-book-tag.html

Jess7 I want to read this one:

Jess7 This looks good

All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation

Jess7 I really want to read this one

Nasty Women: Feminism, Resistance, and Revolution in Trump's America

Jess7 This one is ok

Bad Feminist

Jess7 I want to read this one

Jess7 I also want to read this one

Jess7 And this one

Sex Object: A Memoir

Jess7 This one looks good

Difficult Women

Jess7 This looks good too

In Praise of Difficult Women: Life Lessons from 29 Heroines Who Dared to Break the Rules

Jess7 I just bought this one - seems to have have a feminist theme from the description

You Play the Girl: On Playboy Bunnies, Stepford Wives, Train Wrecks, & Other Mixed Messages

Jess7 This one is about a girl‘s equal rights to education in Pakistan

I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban

Jess7 This looks good

Moving Beyond Words: Essays on Age, Rage, Sex, Power, Money, Muscles: Breaking the Boundaries of Gender

Jess7 This one is primarily about race but does discuss feminism- it‘s a must read regardless

So You Want to Talk About Race

Jess7 I‘m guessing by the title this will touch on feminism:

The Woman Who Smashed Codes: A True Story of Love, Spies, and the Unlikely Heroine Who Outwitted America's Enemies

Jess7 Same for this one:

Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women

Jess7 I also think this will too

Settle for More

Jess7

Wonder Women: 25 Innovators, Inventors, and Trailblazers Who Changed History

Jess7 I‘m reading this one as an ARC - it‘s not available yet but it‘s good - it‘s a book of poetry - “Women of Resistance - poems for a new feminism” 7y

Jess7 This will likely be about body shaming and confidence but she is a strong woman so I would expect it to touch on feminism -

A New Model: What Confidence, Beauty, and Power Really Look Like

Jess7 This one is ok -

Not That Kind of Girl

Jess7

Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Jess7 This work of fiction definitely had strong undertones of feminist themes as the main character was based on the real life Margaret Fishback - who was the highest paid female marketing person of her time

Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk

Jess7 Haven‘t read this yet

The Female of the Species

Jess7

Bad Girls Throughout History

Jess7

The Feminine Mystique

HeathersReadingHideaway @Jess7 I‘ve read a few of these! I‘ll have to look up the rest!! I wasn‘t a fan of the bell jar or Jane Eyre! I loved the handmaid‘s tale show but haven‘t read the book yet! And I loved I Am Malala and Bad Feminist. I thought Sex Object was okay. The rest are new to me I believe. (edited) 7y

Jess7 If you haven‘t read the ones by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie - put those at the top of your list! 💙💙 #Feminist #Feminism #FeminismBooktag #FeministBooks #FeministBookList (edited) 7y
