The Geek Feminist Revolution by Kameron Hurley
5.0
An extremely powerful collection of essays!
I cannot recommend highly enough this collection of essays on feminism and other social justice causes in geek culture, explored from the author's perspective as a feminist sci-fi author. Some of these essays were very timely for me - I started reading this during a weeklong hospitalization, and found my experiences mirrored by Hurley's own hospitalization with some very similar problems. But as a feminist author myself, and someone who tries to remain conscious of social justice work, this collection was especially powerful for me. Definitely worth reading!
