Caitlin Moran is a British broadcaster, critic and columnist – and the author of this hilarious memoir. In How to be a Woman, as well as being extremely funny, she also deals with some pressing women’s issues – the importance of wearing underwear brilliantly, why Lady Gaga is a great role model, how to deal with Brazilian waxes… But in all seriousness, Moran’s repetition of the simple yet seemingly-difficult-to-grasp idea that feminism is something practical and accessible to all women is refreshing and much needed. So, put your best foot forward (whether it be bare, heeled or somewhere in between), grab a copy of her book and read it.
