Celebrating Women's History: A Women's History Month Resource Book | Mary Ellen Snodgrass

March is #NationalWomensHistoryMonth. Are any of you planning to read any particular books to celebrate?? I tend to read books written by #femaleauthors anyway, but I think I‘ll throw in a #feminist book for good measure 🤗📚Any book recommendations??? 🙋🏻‍♀️

Bourriquet76 My reading habits are similar. I‘m about due for a reread of Handmaid‘s Tale. 7y

Jess7 I haven‘t read that one yet and have been wanting to for some time. Maybe we can read it together and discuss! @Bourriquet76 7y

rwmg When I reckoned it up I found that just taking books as they come my M/F ratio was about 2:1 but then last year when I made a conscious effort to give women writers priority the M/F ratio was about 1:2, so this year I'm making women writers a priority every other month. 7y

MissAimz_55 I noticed that I tend to read more women authors. I am reading Nasty Women right now (book of essays about living in a world with trump as the president). I also am going to read Pussy! A Reclamation. I have Difficult Women by Roxanne Gay and Rad American Women A-Z on my Libby shelf. 7y

MissAimz_55 I just added How to be a Woman by Caitlin Moran, What She Ate by Laura Shapiro, and Almost Famous Women by Megan Mayhew Bergman to my TBR list but i don't know if I'll get to them this month. 7y
