The Grace Year by Kim Liggett

The Grace Year is a feminist read for sure. It reminds me of The Handsmaids Tale as it is set in a fictional society that oppresses women and a young girls fight against the society. In the Grace Year, Tierney lives in a society that believes women have powers that let them control and seduce men. Because of this, girls are sent away for a year after their sixteenth birthday so the magic can expel into the wild and they can hold no power over women. The book displays the many way men subtly keep women down in our own society. I would definitely recommend.
