What Would Boudicca Do?: Everyday Problems Solved by History's Most Remarkable Women by Elizabeth Foley

3.0

A fun little read, which serves as a good introduction to some cool women throughout history and gives you a potted summation of them. I would say it's a little light on the advice side of things, most chapters just explore the person in relation to a topic (e.g. body positivity, female friendship, dealing with bullying) but most of the problem solving itself is slightly cliched, surface-level sound bites of positivity. Whilst history lovers might be disappointed by the lack of depth, it does serve as a nice jumping off point for further research. Would definitely make a good gift for a teenage or young adult reader though!
