What Counts as Feminist Literature?
Anything that covers the patriarchy, capitalism, racism, ableism, and so on. The patriarchy hurts everyone. Capitalism hurts everyone. Racism hurts everyone. I could go on, but I think you get the picture. The books listed here sometimes focus on global issues, but these global issues negatively impact 50% of the population–women. I think those books deserve just as much attention as the ones that are solely devoted to feminism.
While I’m an absolute fiend for romance novels, you probably won’t see many here. This site is devoted to de-centering men. Maybe some lesbian romance novels depending on the plot and character development. I’m open to suggestions if you have any.
Do I Make a Profit?
I do. When you purchase a book through my Bookshop.org affiliate link, I get a small percentage of the sale, and so does the local bookstore of your choice. To be fair though, with the cost of running this site and the very small profits that I make in return, it’s likely all going back to my own local indie bookstore where I purchase all my feminist literature.
How Can We Connect?
I’m slowly weening myself off all social media, and Goodreads is owned by the evil empire: Amazon. Outside of this website you can find me on StoryGraph, BlueSky, or you can email me.
Happy reading! 📚✨
