![]() ![]() ✨ Representation: She Kills Me features women from all over the world of many races, places of origin, cultures, religions, abilities, and more. ![]() ![]() I'm so glad I read this and I know this is a book I'll be recommending highly! I've never seen something like this implemented in a nonfiction collection before, and I found it very thoughtful!Īll in all, if you enjoy nonfiction about gruesome deaths (both deserved and not) and fascinating women of the past, I highly recommend checking out She Kills Me. I also appreciated that, whenever a story's focus would include particularly triggering topics, there was a brief little content warning at the top of that story's first page to let readers know what they're in for (or to decide to skip that story altogether). The author offers a little input here and there, whether it's a quick joke or a personal remark on the treatment of a woman, and while I know some nonfiction readers prefer little to no side-chatter, I really enjoyed those little tidbits and thought it made this an immensely fast, light read. ![]() I learned a lot of information (I hadn't heard of almost any of these women before reading this book!) and it's packaged in an incredibly binge-able format. Not quite what I expected, to be fair: for some reason, I thought the entire book's focus would be on serial killers, while it actually focused quite heavily on historical warriors and heroines, including some really badass ladies who fought Nazis, such as Virginia Hall. ![]()
