If you are new around here, I usually write about all things women literature related, with a free essay every Sunday.  As a thank you to my paying subscribers, I also do these monthly roundups of great books and recommended reads.

Well, November has been quite a month…

For someone who celebrates the narratives of women and their right to a voice, I know this month has been disappointing for many of my American friends. 

What I do in my little corner of the world is simply bring you the narratives of women in all their facets of life and I believe we need the wise words of strong women now more than ever.

In times such as these, it can be helpful to turn to books of hope, books of activism- or even just books that bring comfort and joy. Whatever reading is bringing you strength and comfort this autumn, here are few recommended reads that I’ve been tuning into.
