Womens Studies

[close] Welcome to Sisters in Books, a friendly Prague-based community for all bookworms who love reading and discussing books! This group aims to build friendship, support, and empowerment for women (non-cis + non-binary friends welcome) who wish to share their love for good literature. Join our circle as we explore acclaimed literature and share our thoughts and insights with one another through monthly book discussions and meetups. In this group, we read various genres - fiction and nonfiction, fantasy, contemporary, or historical - with a focus on popular reads (BookTube & Goodreads favorites), especially books that promote women's and queer voices and stories. This group runs on mutual respect and encouragement, and we support women’s rights, queer, trans, and POC rights. Thank you for being a part of the community. PS: We are all about friendship and building a community, not about networking, business, or sales. #nospam

[close] We will be choosing books, both fiction and non-fiction, that highlight issues women have faced throughout history and/or still continue to struggle with today in hopes of starting a conversation to share our own experiences in a safe environment.
