Feminism

As I posted yesterday at UBC, I'm undertaking an experiment in Feminism. For one year (or possibly just for the remainder of 2009), I'll be reading only books by female authors. I'm toying with the idea of limiting all my reading material, but I will have a serious news-intake issue. My favorite website is 538 written by three dudes. All regular news outlets on the web are dominated by male authors.

Anyway, to hype myself up for this experiment I'm going to make a little reading list. I want to put in at least 25 books (my yearly reading goal of which I'm about 4 books behind already this year). Then I need a "post-poned" list of books to read when the experiment ends. I have several already purchased books that will be waiting.

2009 - Girl Year
cunt - Inga Muscio
Spin Sisters - Myrna Blyth
Spook - Mary Roach
Opening Up - Tristan Taormino
Open - Jenny Block
Look at Me - Jennifer Egan

2010
Omerta - Mario Puzo
The Sicilian - Mario Puzo
A Long Way Down - Nick Hornby
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - Jane Austen and Seth

Okay, I'll add as I find all the other unread books in my apartment. Open to suggestions, and especially lends.
