Brazen is amazing - a full meal and dessert - and I must confess to drawing out my reading of it, wanting it to last. Think of Brazen as sort of Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls for the slightly older set, mostly because Bagieu includes the instances of rape, abortion, child abuse, war, murder and many other hardships and horrors that shaped and drove so many of the 33 women featured in this book to overcome the odds, the hardships, the discrimination and the segregation they did to achieve success and leave their indelible, positive, meaningful marks on this world. Welcome to the shelves yet another amazing collection of mini-biographies: Brazen: Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World by Pénélope Bagieu. Happy Women's History Month! If you are a bibliophile, it's a great time to be a girl. ![]()
