Female Rage Book Recommendations

1. The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins (fantasy horror)

5 stars

Such a creative and fun read! This is the book I recommend to people who want to get into reading or have been struggling to finish a book. A rich man adopts all these kids and teaches each one an important skill from war to speaking with animals to language to healing using ancient texts. Creative. Discipline. Madness. Female rage blows out when everything comes crashing down.

2. The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler (nonfiction)

5 stars

This book changed the way I thought about being female and my relationship with the intimate parts of myself. I’ve bought it for so many people. It’s empowering. It’ll make you cry. It’ll make you rejoice. It’ll making me you unbelievably angry, ready to tear down the patriarchy. It’ll give you hope and confidence. Ensler interviewed women about, well, about their vaginas. A topic we’ve been taught to be silent about. The monologues she received has been performed across major cities.

Such a fun book! Well, if you like extreme splatterpunk, gruesome, horrifying descriptive details. A book full of mayhem and female rage. A young highschool girl goes on a rampage to satisfy her urges and hunger. This book is very extreme. She’s mad. She’s starving. She wants what she wants.

4. All’s Well by Mona Awad (dark literature)

5 stars

As with every Mona Awad book I’ve read there’s a long portion at the beginning where I’m like, “Am I even enjoying this?” Then suddenly I’m swept away on this dark current in a torrential downpour of misery and suffering. From the perspective of someone suffering with an invisible chronic illness through the lens of theatre. The rage and painful frustration from suffering of an infliction that no one else can see on the outside.

A sapphic, bloody, unhinged, raging, revenge story. Alongside the intense splatter punk is a beautiful coming of age story. Set several decades ago when being queer was dangerous is where the story begins. Susan’s been in a coma for an entire year and the anger has festered until she finds she has abilities. All hell breaks loose.

9. The Change by Kirsten Miller (thriller)

Three very different women come together when they realize something terrible is happening in their town. They’re all outcasts in one way or another, but mostly they have all endured men’s prejudices against them. Must take the power into their own hands. Magical. Women Empowerment. Revenge. Female rage. Although I found the book very slow at times to the point where I would put it down for days, I find myself thinking about it a year later.
