When Sally mentioned in our team Slack that she was considering reading the six books on the short list for the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction, Renee chimed in that she’d already read two of them. Like the true feminist nerds they are, they teamed up to read three each. In this podcast episode, Sally and Renee rank the six books and make a prediction for which one will win the prize later this week.     Books/Resources Mentioned: Thunderclap: A Memoir of Art and Life and Sudden Death by Laura Cumming Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI by Madhumita Murgia All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley’s Sack, a Black Family Keepsake by Tiya Miles A Flat Place: Moving Through Empty Landscapes, Naming Complex Trauma by Noreen Masud Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World by Naomi Klein How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair   Special thanks to Melville House for providing a complementary copy of A Flat Place.   Support this episode’s hosts and guests:  Follow Renee: Instagram // The StoryGraph Follow Sally: Instagram // The StoryGraph   Today’s episode is sponsored by Thank You, More Please by Lily Womble from Legacy Lit and Undue Burden: Life and Death Decisions in Post-Roe America by Shefali Luthra from Doubleday.
