10 Must-Read Collections From Palestinian Poets
The ongoing war on Palestine is one of the greatest tragedies and human rights abuses of our lifetimes, a genocide that began decades ago and continues today. The catastrophic nature of what is happening cannot be overstated. It is absolutely vital that we do not look away from what’s happening, that we speak out where we can, and that we culturally and financially support Palestinians wherever…
It's a bit late, but be sure to check out our annual Pride Month playlist selections! There are some excellent LGBTQ+ artists featured, and I hope everyone hears a new song they love!

10 New(ish) Poetry Collections to Read for National Poetry Month
April is National Poetry Month, which makes it the perfect occasion to enjoy some poetry. Most collections are fairly quick reads, which makes it something that’s excellent to fit into an otherwise full reading schedule. I haven’t made many poetry-specific posts in quite awhile, so I thought that here we can focus on poetry collections that were released in the 2020s. Let’s explore some of the…
choosing to allocate spoons to hanging out and having a good time at the cost of perfectly completing all your work is not a failing it is in fact an act of survival. “too sick to work = too sick to play” is in fact ableist bullshit that you don’t have to buy into. and the fact that leisure time is treated like a privilege is a fucking travesty
An Update From The Feminist Bibliothecary
Hello friends! Readers may have noticed that the last couple of years have featured substantially less new content than was previously being released here. In the coming weeks and months, I very much expect this to change. I wanted to share an update on why I haven’t been as active, social media places you can find me at, and what kind of posts to expect in the near future and ongoing. The last…
The Feminist Bibliothecary's 30 Favourite Music Videos & Singles of 2024
Here is a list of my favourite music videos and singles of 2024 (so far, I’m sure there will be more great stuff over the coming weeks)! I usually share a list that’s specifically oriented towards best music videos, but this year there were a number of singles I loved that had much more minimalistic videos, and I wanted to share all of it. There are some great songs here, and some beautifully…

7 Ways to Fight Book Censorship Today
"Many people believe that libraries are "obsolete", but the only obsolete library is an underfunded one." #BannedBooksWeek
In 2024, Banned Books Week is from September 22-28, and it’s more important than ever that we take the time to fight for our freedom to read. In the past several years, book bans and challenges have been on a dramatic rise, with censorship targeting school and public libraries in an attempt to remove books primarily by LGBTQ+ and POC authors with content about their own lives. Many different…
10 Short Books to Read During Women In Translation Month
It's Women In Translation Month! Check out these quick but meaty novels for the occasion!
August is Women in Translation Month! According to the Women In Translation organisation, women make up only 30% of the authors whose works are translated into English. One of the ways we can fight against this gender bias is by reading works by women in translation to support the writers that are being translated and to encourage publishers to publish more translations authored by women. Women…
Book Review: Where The Wild Ladies Are by Aoko Matsuda, translated by Polly Barton
I recently read and absolutely loved Where the Wild Ladies Are by Aoko Matsuda and I just had to share some of my thoughts.
“In this “delightfully uncanny” collection of feminist retellings of traditional Japanese folktales (The New York Times Book Review), humans live side by side with spirits who provide a variety of useful services—from truth-telling to babysitting, from protecting castles to fighting crime.” Originally published in Japanese in 2016, Where the Wild Ladies Are by Aoko Matsuda received an English…

10 Songs to Add to Your Pride Month Playlist: 2024 Edition
As I do every year, I've created a new list of songs to add to your Pride Month playlist! It keeps getting harder and harder to choose just ten because there are so many incredible options. At the bottom are links to the previous lists/Spotify playlist.
Every year I create a new list of songs to add to your Pride Month playlist, and this year will not be an exception. There’s so much wonderful queer music out there, and I think Pride Month is a beautiful opportunity to explore LGBTQ+ artistry and enjoy some of the wonderful things to listen to. So, without further ado, here are this year’s selections! Jasmin Savoy – Orange Wine Jasmin Savoy…
