Thought I'd write this up, cos it's actually something I'm feeling kinda proud of at the moment - have been doing really well about reading stuff I think is actually interesting and worthwhile rather than just crap. So, since new year I have read:

Swastika Night - Katharine Burdekin
Herland - Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Music, Gender, Education - Lucy Green
Whipping Girl - Julia Serano (Yes, I hadn't read this before, so sue me)
Persepolis: Marjane Satrapi
The Woman who Played Go - Shan Sa
The Good Women of China - Xinran (I absolutely loved this one!)
The Long Song - Andrea Levy
Killing Rage - bell hooks (Ohhh I was so glad to have read this one!)

This actually puts me almost on track for 52 Books POC. I am still half way through Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks, and my next novel is going to be Tiger Hills by Sarita Mandanna. I feel like I'm finally starting to purge my brain of the Eng Lit Degree Canon Fog. Feels good.
