Women Don’t Owe You Pretty – Florence Given
Recommended by Zoë
“This book opened my eyes to things that seemed normal for such a long time. It made me realise that women have to endure so much more than men in our male dominated society.”
Weapons Of Math Destruction – Cathy O’Neil
Recommended by Morgane
“While we are aware of the inequality and injustices in our society, we are often oblivious to the ways Big Data maintains and contributes to this inequality. A great book about the impact of Big Data on our modern society and democracy for those who are new to the subject. Recommended for those who loved 21 Lessons For The 21st Century and Factfulness.”
Ishmael – Daniel Quinn
Recommended by Tosca
“This is a must read for everyone. They should add this book to every curriculum, especially in Western civilisations. This book shaped my perception of humanity and invites us all to rethink our way of living, in the least judgemental way. I truly believe that there would be peace on earth if everyone would read this.”

Food Farmacy – Lina Nertby Aurell and Mia Clase
“This book has given me such a good insight into how our bodies work. It has thought me how to boost my immunity, skin and overall health. Now that I know more about the effects and power of certain foods over our body, I’ve been more motivated to eat healthy rather than seeing it as a punishment.”
What Remains – Carole Radziwill
Recommended by Alexo
“This book tells the life story of Carole, about the ways she suffered throughout her life, lost her husband and her best friend in a short a period of time. I have always been interested in JFK Junior and Carolyn Bessette and this book gives interesting insights about their lives.”
Normal People – Sally Rooney
Recommended by Tosca

10 Climate Actions That Work – Pieter Boussemaere
Recommended by Marianne
“It’s a nice informative book that has opened my eyes and helped me to understand the real problems and solutions to climate change. It has lowered the pressure I put on myself to make a change, because I’ve realised that the real solutions are out of my hands as an individual. It’s actually a pretty hopeful book showing us that the solutions are out there.”
