May 2019 Reads for the Rest of Us

Here’s your May 2019 Reads for the Rest of Us.

Since I’ve begun a regular column over at Ms. Magazine, I’ve been posting the Reads for the Rest of Us that I am most excited about there. Reads for the Rest of Us here used to be everything I found being published by women that I could find. Over at Ms., I’ve shortened the list due to time and space limits. Well, you’ve told me that while you love the Ms. lists, you also miss my more comprehensive lists, so I have decided to reinstate them here!

They’ll be a bit different from those I used to post as I won’t be able to take as much time to describe them fully; I’ll need to leave that to my Ms. column. Instead, I’ll just compile a quick and dirty list of covers with links for you to browse! So here’s May’s list!

Let me know what you think in the comments below. What are you reading this month?

Congrats on the Ms. Column – I was one of the first subscribers to their publication in the 70s – yeah – I’m a dinosaur!

A few of these are already on my TBR already, though I have no idea when I am getting to them. Thanks for sharing.
