Great books for Women’s History Month

March marks the start of women’s history month at Zonegem. We are celebrating with our favourite classic woman’s audiobooks that recognize great women’s feats and adventures. Here are our top-rated picks from Zonegem:

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

This story tells Meg, Beth, Jo, and Amy March, raised in New England and live in poverty. This book explores their domestic adventures as they try to make an income and their friendships and love affairs as they become Little Women.

She Came To Slay by Erica Armstrong Dunbar

Harriott Tubman is well known as one of the most famous conductors of the railroad. But she is also known for her selflessness and bravery and is an inspiration to generations in the struggle for civil rights. She helped to liberate hundreds of slaves, and she was the first woman to lead an armed expedition. This book explores Harriott’s many accomplishments and is both engaging and informative.

The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd

There’s a good reason why this book is a multi-award-winning novel; it is a fantastic story about a young girl’s journey of healing and the power of love. Lily Owens’s life has been shaped by the fuzzy memory of her mother being killed. When her ‘stand-in mom offends three of the biggest racists in town, Lily decides it’s time for them both to escape. This is a novel about female power, a story that women should share and pass on.
