Women's stories are often written as if they spent their entire time on Earth casting woeful but beautiful glances towards the horizon and sighing into the bitter wind at the thought of any conflict. Well, that's not how it f**king happened. When you hear about a woman who was 100% pure and good, you're probably missing the best chapters in her life's 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, She Caused a Riot is an empowering, no-holds-barred look into the epic adventures and dangerous exploits of 100 inspiring women who were too brave, too brilliant, too unconventional, too political, too poor, not ladylike enough, and not white enough to be recognized by their shitty contemporaries. From third-century Syrian queen Zenobia to twentieth-century Nigerian women's rights activist Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, these are women who gave absolutely zero f**ks, and will inspire a courageous new movement of women to do the same.… (mais)

2019

4.0 / 5.0

This is a well-researched collection that features some bad-ass women I have never heard of, or forgotten about. I wish it featured less commentary and more history, and maybe more pictures. I'm so glad I found this. The women are amazing, and lived inspiring lives, esp for the time they lived.

I loved this book! Loved, loved, loved it. If you're a feminist worn down by the heartbreaking struggle of the last two years, this book will pick up your spirits--at least while you're reading and/or listening to it. I got a free audiobook copy from the Early Reviewer program. Rachael Beresford does a fantastic job of bringing Hannah Jewell's words to life. Note, there's a lot of swearing and smacking around of the menz. If that gets your panties in a knot, you probably want to try something else. For me, though, (a 56 year-old chick) it's awesome. ( )

This is similar to numerous other recently published tomes bringing to light the exploits of kick-ass women throughout history who've been largely ignored or minimized up until now. I didn't love this one as much as I've enjoyed others - I received a copy of the audio version from the publisher in a LibraryThing giveaway and I found the narrator completely unsuited to the book, to the point of distraction. Additionally, I think a book like this is best if dipped into and out of, but I went through it all in one listen (not all at one time, of course, but it was the only thing I was listening to at the time). Not my favorite, but still appreciated.

Thanks to the publisher for a copy of the audiobook, provided to me via the LibraryThing's Early Reviewers program. ( )
