Books to help a middle aged person understand societal/generational changes over the last couple of decades.

Context: I’m a gen X female with no children. Most of my friends are same – though I interact, work with and coach those from the generations after mine. I’ve recently noticed situations where I am out of touch with how younger people interpret/experience the world, because my personal experience of teenage priorities or values are from growing up in the 80’s and 90’s – pre movements like ‘me-too’, Black Lives Matter, any kind of body image acceptance – all which has had / is having a massive impact on how people view themselves or the world around them.

Looking for suggestions of books – could be bios or fiction, don’t mind – to help me keep up with the times. A bit of comedy or lightheartedness is a bonus.

I’ve started listening to the audiobook “All I ever wanted was to be hot” by Lucinda ‘Froomes’ Price and this has helped a lot – hoping there might be some other helpful treasures out there.

I’m Australian btw – but suggestions from around the globe could be helpful too!
