I'm still thinking about what I might be reading that would fit here, but I wanted to say I'm impressed with you for taking the time to list all this for everyone, especially when focusing is hard for most people right now.
Hags: the Demonization of Middle Aged Women by Victoria Smith. A deep dive into incels and the hatred of women. Left me shaken, frankly. Excellent read.
I just finished Doppelganger and feel like I might have to reread it to make sense of it all. Or, at least, go back to the beginning to see how it connects to the middle and end. But I suspect that at the end of this year, I will consider it one of the more important books I read.

Yes!
Thank you! It’s been incredibly hard to focus for me as well.

What a title! Thanks for the recommendation!

It’s certainly a fascinating and complex read. It was nothing like I expected.
This is such a great list! Currently reading Doppelgänger which was heartbreakingly written before this past election. 😑
I feel like Monsters by Claire Dederer could also go on this list. Also Emergent Strategy and Pleasure Activism by adrienne maree brown.
Oh I love Claire Dederer! I’ll check it out.
Ooooh, it’s such a good one. Hope you enjoy it!
