Men Who Hate Women: From Incels to Pickup Artists: The Truth about Extreme Misogyny and How it Affects Us All | Laura Bates

Top book of May was Men Who Hate Women. It was not an easy read but one that is necessary. As a mom of a young man, teenage son, & a young daughter this book filled me with a next level anxiety about what is out there on social media. #12Booksof2025

ChaoticMissAdventures You have some of my favorite books listed, I have not read Madness, so I am requesting it from my library now! 9h

TheEllieMo This is such an important book. 9h

IriDas Did the author give any solutions? I mostly just tried to talk to my sons. I was always surprised that what I thought the would know, they most definitely did not. 6h

Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men | Caroline Criado Perez

Favorite book of March is Invisible Women. One of those books that is informative but also infuriating that women are still an afterthought in society. #12booksof2025

This book is terrifying and infuriating and I hated how important it was to read. Passing it off to a coworker tomorrow and will need to warn her about how hard this one is one is on your mental state.

ChaoticMissAdventures Such an important read. She has a new one out I really need to get to. 2d

Jas16 @ChaoticMissAdventures Going to look that up and add it to my TBR. 2d

AmyG Just put it on hold. 2d

TrishB I couldn‘t finish this. Made me angry and sick 😕 1d

Jas16 @Amor4Libros @AmyG It is a harrowing read but i think worth it. 1d

Jas16 @TrishB I can completely understand that. It is so difficult to read and try to process without feeling ill. 1d

BookishMarginalia Can‘t handle it right now 😵‍💫 1d

ncsufoxes Great book but definitely makes you want to scream. As a mom it was eye opening as to what boys are being exposed to & what horrors girls may be subjected to 1d

Jas16 @BookishMarginalia I can definitely understand that. 19h

Jas16 @ncsufoxes I am not a parent but the passages about the conversations she had with high school students really struck me. So scary the power that social media has and the lack of responsibility and concern given by platforms like YouTube. 19h

Women who Run with the Wolves: Contacting the Power of the Wild Woman | Clarissa Pinkola Est's

Although I took a big break on this book. I want to say, this quote really spoke to me, and I snapped a picture of the book. I was cleaning out my “book club pictures,“ where I have random things in it, and saw this and felt I should share.

Mirazzles I‘ve recently come across this one… how are you liking it thus far? 2d

Bookwomble @Mirazzles Well, I've overcommitted myself on Christmas books! so I've only read the first story, but that was good and I'm looking forward to getting properly into it once I've completed at least one other book! 10h

Story of Art Without Men | Katy Hessel

As mentioned in the intro, the usual book used in Art History classes is The Story of Art. In the original publication, not a single women was included. In the reprint, one woman was added. So the author started to look for the missing artists. It started on instagram (I think) and eventually this book was created.

I now have a list of items for future museum scavenger hunts.
