The #metoo movement has sparked many interesting conversations online, in the media and among friends and colleagues about consent, equality and using the power you do have to raise up others. With International Women’s Day falling in March, this is an excellent time to highlight books that will keep this discussion going.

Novels based on incredible women who rocked science, engineering, politics, human rights, the Arts, and more. Probably all while making sure dinner was on the table.
