Why read it?
1 author picked Girls of Paper and Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved how this book portrayed women supporting each other instead of succumbing to hatred and jealousy. The book handled so many delicate topics beautifully. I wish I had the space to share them all.

From Robyn's list on women who challenge the patriarchy.
