I just read the short story and I’m honestly kind of blown away. After that, I ended up looking into the author too, and her life is wild. I’m mainly wondering if anyone has recommendations for other books—fiction or nonfiction—that hit similar themes. And yeah, I’d really recommend this one to anyone who hasn’t read it yet. It gets into things like women’s freedom being limited, the power stuff in relationships that comes from gender roles and how society shapes people, mental health, and more. Also, I’m new here, so hi—I’m excited to be part of this group!
