There is no one way to be a woman. To be a feminist means simply to believe in the equality between the sexes, and this is something that I cannot help but believe and teach my children. Each of these books were written by incredible, intelligent, strong, unique, funny, amazing independent women. Some of these books are funny, some are moving, some are sad, but they are all declarations of the female spirit. Today we smash the patriarchy, celebrate in our uniqueness, and stand together as feminists.
