Warrior Women Book List: 28 Must-Read Books About Extraordinary Women

Women are amazing! We love to read about, talk about and converse with other women. We find other women fascinating. Whether political trailblazers or adventurers, musicians or comedians,  television personalities or writers, mothers or daughters, women offer so many incredible stories.

This week we reviewed the excellent novel, Rodham by Curtis Sittenfeld. While it is fiction (mixed with real events) it is an excellent reimagining of Hillary Clinton’s life. It inspired us to put together a guide to some of the best books by and about women that fascinate, absorb and inspire us on how to live our lives, no matter what is thrown at us.

What are the books about women that have inspired you. Let us know in the comments.
