What Would Boudicca Do?: Everyday Problems Solved by History's Most Remarkable Women by Elizabeth Foley
2.0
What I liked about this book was how it tried to bring attention to lesser known women in history. I found reading about women of diverse ethnicity and age very interesting. I hadn't heard about most of them. As a visual person I also really love the cover and the illustration of each women.
However 50 women in 300 pages might have been a bit too ambitious. Most chapters seemed like a very skimmed over look at someones live. Even though I found the concept of solving modern every day problems through the lens of important women of history intriguing , the chapters wastes a lot of words with cringy "relatable" humour.
