Brazen: Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World by Pénélope Bagieu

5.0

I love reading true stories that I’ve never heard before and I would never know about if I hadn’t randomly picked up this graphic novel. Some of my favorites included the Catholic Finnish lady who designed her gravestone to eternally touch her Protestant husband. The lady who took her passion for miniatures and became a pioneer in forensic science. The Greek woman who advocated for midwifery and female doctors during ancient times. So many wonderful, inspiring women! I love reading how they turned their passions into careers and changed the world. Beyond inspiring :)
