    1. “Men Who Hate Women” – Laura Bates

      It’s an examination of the manosphere and the way interconnected communities of incels, pickup artists and men going their own way lead to extremist radicalisation and the alt-right. It critiques the way extreme misogyny is not taken seriously as a terrorist motive by governments and wider society.

    2. Red Rising because there are so many recommendations on here. I’m about 150 pages in and can’t stop with the eye rolls. I’m not sure why it gets so many recommendations lol.

      Bluebeard, by Kurt Vonnegut. One of his later books, but revisits a character from Cat’s Cradle.

      Dancing in the Shadow of Monsters: the Collapse of the Congo and the Great War in Africa by Jason Stearns. About half way through, very good so far, lots of insight into the deadliest war since WW2 that no one knows about

    5. The Poisoned Serpent by Joan Wolf. It’s part 2 of a set of novels set in the 1100’s.

    6. Daring Greatly – Brene Brown. Wanted something on emotions we feel, and it’s not 1,000 pages

      ​

      Musicophilia – Oliver Sacks. I teach music and wanted to educate myself further on what music does to us as humans.

      Just finished Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn today and I know it was popular awhile ago and late to the train but it was very good I totally get the hype around it!

      Also working my way through 25 books/short stories of the Percy Jackson series to get to the new one that came out recently
