This book was insanely good. Collective action makes me want to cry, in the best way. How wonderfully Newitz captures the beauty and pain of life as a woman or nonbinary person. I finished this in two days and simply had to keep reading until I got to the end. I’ll be buying Newitz’s other book, Autonomous, immediately. I can’t recall the last time an author so enraptured me with such complex and deep topics. 

Read this if you’re interested in intersectional history—anarchism, suffrage, reproductive rights, slavery, music and dance. There is SO MUCH going on in this book, and it is all painfully excellent. 

LOTS of trigger warnings. I tagged as many as I could think of.
