This week, we’re looking at my top three fascinating women.
The month of March is Women’s History Month. I thought, in honor of that, it would be a great time to share a list of women who fascinate me. These are the figures I will always read about. If movies are made of their lives, I will watch them. Any fictional retellings of their lives end up on my reading list. I will devour any article, think piece, or bit of new information that comes to light. I just want to learn everything about them. Historical figures stand out for their accomplishments, impact on history, or how they refused to be caged by the conventional standards of their age. I’m drawn to stories of women who were defiant in the face of what they were expected to do or be. As a staunch feminist, I read these stories as sources of empowerment. The struggle for equal rights is not over. Things are better but we can learn about perseverance in the face of adversity from those who came before us. For each of the remarkable women on this list, I’m sharing a few titles of recommended reading. (*Note: Bookshop.org affiliate links.)
