Girl, Woman, Other (2019) by Bernadine Evaristo follows the stories of black British women - old women, young women, women who identify as genderless, daughters, grandmas, mothers, teachers, friends, successful, unsuccessful, loved, unloved, gay, straight, lonely, activists, woke, commercially woke, tired. Also this book barely has any periods, which means you can’t really put it down. It flows. It’s funny. It’s sharp. It’s a 2019 Booker Prize Winner baby.
