The Little Book of Lost Words by Joe Gillard is hilarious and interesting and full of words you should use... and some I already do.

Text Me When You Get Home by Kayleen Schaefer
I have lots of things to say about Text Me When You Get Home by Kayleen Schaefer because it's great and full of tidbits women need to hear to affirm the wonders of female friendship.
Queen Meryl by Erin Carlson
Erin Carlson is wonderful at bringing fascinating women to life. Queen Meryl is a fascinating read about a complex and interesting woman who has captured people's attentions on stage and the silver screen for five decades.
Motherland by Elissa Altman
I absolutely loved Motherland by @ElissaAltman from Ballantine Books. It is absolutely fabulous and touching and there were so many amazing quotes.
Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez
"Men go without saying, and women don't get said at all.” This quote cuts me to the core. Invisible Women, at its core, is about discrimination because the data gap perpetuates gender discrimination and inequity around the world.
Thank You For My Service by Mat Best
Thank You For My Service by Mat Best is one of the better military memoirs I've read. He's a badass, I guess... I think he would've been cooler as a Marine, though. I'm not biased. As military adjacent, I like reading up on military nonfiction/memoirs, but as a critic, I'm wary because I've read some racist bullshit masquerading as a war memoir. I was surprised be this one and kept giggling by Best's turn of phrase.
