Nice collection of facts and anecdotes about strong, independent women throughout history. The book divides each chapter into "squads" dedicated to a certain field or occupation: athlete squads, political and activist squads, warrior squads, scientist squads, and artist squads. I give kudos to the author for actively acknowledging women of various nationalities and ethnicities, from the haeyneo of South Korea to the women scientists of Antarctica. The topics were interesting and well-researched, though I felt like the writing suffered from too much slang/informal language, which made it read more like a blog than a book. Full disclosure: I received an advance reading copy of Girl Squads from the publisher, and my rating is based on an uncorrected proof. This book is currently available in bookstores. A good introduction to some amazing women and their contributions to women's equality, specifically for a younger audience. Although the writing is witty at times, sometimes it's just a little annoying. However, that being said, the mini bios included in this collection are stories that should be shared. A good start for anyone wanting to read more detailed biographies of these women. The women portrayed are from different cultures, locations, and eras, so kudos for that. I was especially moved by the Afghan music one. Net Galley Feedback Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
A modern girl is nothing without her squad of besties, but Maggs takes readers on a tour of some of history's most famous female BFFs. You'll meet lady pirates, socialites, Olympic skiers and medical students who showed just how essential female friendship has been throughout history-- and throughout the world. -- adapted from jacket Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
