In Praise of Difficult Women: Life Lessons From 29 Heroines Who Dared to Break the Rules
Women's stories are often written as if they spent their entire time on earth casting woeful but beautiful glances toward the horizon and swooning at the thought of any conflict.
Well, that's not how it f**king happened. When you hear about a woman who was 100 percent pure and good, you're probably missing the best chapters of her story. Maybe she slept around. Maybe she stole. Maybe she crashed planes. Maybe she got shot, or maybe she shot a bad guy (who probably had it coming). Maybe she caused a scandal. Maybe she caused a riot...
From badass writer Hannah Jewell, a Washington Post video host, She Caused a Riot is an empowering, no-holds-barred look into the epic adventures and dangerous exploits of 100 inspiring women who absolutely crushed it. They were too brave, too brilliant, too unconventional, too political, too poor, and not white enough to be recognized by their shitty contemporaries. Fearless and gift-worthy, this riot book is a bold tribute to the powerful women who came before us in the spirit of Bad Girls Throughout History, In Praise of Difficult Women, Bygone Badass Broads, and Being Boss.
