Reading list, summer 2019–2020 (themes: sexual assault, feminism, personal growth)

I rediscovered my love of reading last year. Starting with Little Women (for the third time), then quickly diving into the topics that have been on my mind.

I use Amazon’s “wish list” to save books that I want to buy, and then use that as my list and purchase them from my local bookstore (Greenlight 🌹). My top three favorites: She Said, Bad Behavior, and The Body Keeps Score.

• She Said, Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey

• Transit, Rachel Cusk
• Know My Name, Chanel Miller
• The Moment of Lift, Melinda Gates
• The White Book, Han Kang
• Silence: In The Age of Noise, Erling Kagge
• Asymmetry, Lisa Halliday
• The Five People You Meet in Heaven, Mitch Albom
• The Body Keeps Score, Bessel Van Der Kolk, M.D.
