My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Full Disclosure: I received an Advanced Reader's Copy of Women Writing Dangerously: An Illustrated History of Banned, Censored & Silenced Books by Women Writers, from 19th-Century Scandals to Contemporary Clashes by Nava Atlas from Clarkson Potter via NetGalley. This book will be published around February 16, 2027.

Women Writing Dangerously: An Illustrated History of Banned, Censored & Silenced Books by Women Writers, from 19th-Century Scandals to Contemporary Clashes by Nava Atlas is a beautiful book that can be read straight through or in short segments as you have time. I loved the illustrations. This is the type of book you want to leave out for other people to peruse. I have read many of the books featured and yet still learned quite a bit about the women who wrote them. The recounting of what these women risked to tell the stories they had in them is intense.
