Books of 2023: The Trial by @laura_bates__ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25/5 **** I'm never surprised when Bates writes something compelling, and this YA novel is no different. This is once again a MUST read. Bates has brought young readers another powerful and insightful tale of how sexism and harassment are rampant in our society. You think this is your everyday survival story, and it is not. It's a different type of survival story, a tale that most girls and women unfortunately live with every day. The tense atmosphere and thrilling nature were just done brilliantly. The island used an allegory for society to be insightful and necessity. Readers definitely need to give this one a chance. This may have been the first book I finished in the new year, but I'm still counting it as once of the best I read in 2022. #books #books2022 #bookstagram #laurabates #ukyabooks #feminism #yabooks #bestbooksof2022 #cupofteabooksof2023 #youngadultbooks #survivalstories #fightagainstmisogyny #femaleempowerment https://www.instagram.com/p/CnI0TT-rdX7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#thetrial #laurabates @simonkidsuk #yalit OUT SEPTEMBER 16 2021 . After a plane crash sees a group of teens wash up on a desert island their first thought is survival. But a terrible secret from the party the night before follows them and someone is looking for justice. Now survival depends on facing the truth and who was hurt that night and who let it happen? Thought provoking drama exploring themes of consent sexism and complicity. . . The Burning was brilliant and thought provoking and this looks like another enthralling read. Can't wait to start 😍🥰 https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ9ObCxLgED/?utm_medium=tumblr

EverydaySexism is a twitter account created by Laura Bates to bring light to issues surrounding women and feminism with original tweets and by retweeting news stories and other feminist account posts with their opinions added. The account is geared more towards sexism and assault towards women; this is what the account sheds light to. Bates’ goal is the share these stories/experiences to show just how bad the issue of sexism in hopes of joining forces to end it. I highly encourage following this account as it’s consistent with its goal of educating people of others’ experiences. 

My childrens #bookreview in #southwaleseveningpost #theburning #laurabates @simonteen the story of 15 year old Anna who moves to a Scottish village where nothing can trace her back to her old life or to 'the incident' until the Whispers start up again. To distract herself she loses herself in a history project about a young girl accused of witchcraft 100 years before. Her story is terrifyingly similar to Anna s own. The parallels between persecution of mediaeval witches and the social burning of modern day Anna becomes unnervingly apparent. The reader will be left in no doubt it is time to extinguish society sexist attitudes this exploiting revengeporn and the repression of female sexuality. Thought provoking and empowering. #feminism #empoweringwomen #bookblogger #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #coverkidsbooks #instabook #ireadya #teenlit #kidslit #teenbooks #teenread #newbook #yalit #bookblogger #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #coverkidsbooks #instabook #ireadya #teenlit #kidslit https://www.instagram.com/p/BuyvKEIHYee/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vmhq6cbb0y6y
