Curently Reading...

Post by RedRosa »

I just started reading Radical Intimacy by Sophie K Rosa: "Including critiques of the 'wellness' industry that ignores rising poverty rates, the mental health crisis and racist and misogynist state violence; transcending love and sex under capitalism to move towards feminist, decolonial and queer thinking; asking whether we should abolish the family; interrogating the framing of ageing and death and much more, Radical Intimacy is the compassionate antidote to a callous society."

So far, so good.

What is everyone else reading these days?

Currently reading 'Nice girls don't get the corner office'.

Lots of humour and pretty much down to earth about how women could and should progress in that big world out there.

The house under the bridge by Iain Rob Wright.
And all that there is, is the absolute ugliness of being human. And you’ve got to love it. Or else you’re f**ked.

Oh, that looks scary. I can't read horror genre like this. It would give me me bad dreams.

Revolting Women by Lucy Ryan. Focusing on why 50+ women in top positions are leaving industry. Not yet the age bracket I fall into but a very interesting read.

I'm currently reading The Bone Shard by Andrea Stewart. It's high fantasy and it has a sapphic character in it :)

Stalin, The Whole Sky is Full of Stars, Flight to Freedom, My Everest Story, Phineas Gage, and a literary break down of the Bill of Rights and how it applies to student rights 🙂 I teach literature/reading so I read all day, every day with students!
