1. “Bad Feminist” by Roxane Gay

   Anmerkungen:

   • This is an insightful collection of essays that deal with what feminist is today and how this has changed throughout time from a woman of color’s perspective. I think that this would be a really interesting choice because the author has an really great perspective about our culture today.

• . This is a book about a woman who loves math and happens to have Asperger’s. She is a 30 year old woman who hires a man to learn how to deal with human touch and eventually love. It is a very unorthodox love story but it is definitely a different perspective and a different love story than most people would think to read about.

Anmerkungen:

• This book is about two enemies that start a correspondence. Through this correspondance, they create an unlikely relationship that leads to love. Yet since they are enemies, they need to keep this a secret. It is a very interesting book about love during the time of war and realizing that there are no barriers for people to fall in love, even as enemies. I think this is a good book for Rhiannon because she loves new ideas and she wants to see something new and different.
