Jennifer Mathieu

When an unlikely teenager stands up to sexism in her high school she unwittingly starts a feminist revolution that shakes her whole town. It's time to fight like a girl! Perfect for fans of Holly Bourne. Vivian Carter is fed up. Fed up with her high school teachers who think the football team can do no wrong. Fed up with sexist dress codes, hallway harassment and gross comments from guys during class. But most of all, Viv Carter is fed up with always following the rules. Viv's mum was a tough-as-nails, punk rock Riot Grrrl in the '90s, and now Viv takes a page from her mother's past and creates Moxie, a feminist zine that she distributes anonymously to her classmates. She's just blowing off steam, but other girls respond and spread the Moxie message. As Viv forges friendships with other young women across the divides of cliques and popularity rankings, she realises that what she has started is nothing short of a girl revolution. TIME TO FIGHT LIKE A GIRL A page-turning read with a feminist message, for anyone who has ever had to deal with #everydaysexism

Evie Barnes is a bad girl. And everyone knows that bad girls make the best friends... A story of murder, secrets and tragedy from the author of MOXIE - as seen on Netflix. 1964. Houston, Texas. Evie Barnes is a 'bad' girl. So are all her friends. They're the sort who wear bold makeup, laugh too loud and run around with boys. Most of all, they protect their own against the world. So when Evie is saved from being assaulted by a good girl from the right side of the tracks, every rule she's always lived by is called into question. Now she must rethink everything she knew about loyalty and learn that when girls stick together it doesn't matter whether they're 'good' or 'bad'. In this riveting story of murder, secrets, and tragedy, Jennifer Mathieu reimagines S. E. Hinton's The Outsiders from a female perspective. Bad Girls Never Say Die has all the drama and heartache of that teen classic, but with a feminist take just right for our times.

Vivian už toho má po krk. Už ji nebaví poslouchat sexistické narážky spolužáků, protěžování školního fotbalového týmu, ani nespravedlnosti třídního učitele a vedení školy. A hlavně má plné zuby toho, jak ji všichni pořád mají za poslušnou a hodnou holku. Když zjistí, že její máma byla členkou punkového hnutí Riot Grrrl, rozhodne se pro vlastní vzpouru. Začne anonymně vydávat časopis Ranařky a pořádat protestní akce, ke kterým se přidává stále více dívek. Vivian najednou zjistí, že v malém městečku rozpoutala revoluci. A taky si dokázala najít novou cestu k sobě samé i ke svojí mámě, ve které znovu probudí sebevědomou a energickou ženu. Román nejen pro mladé čtenářky a čtenáře je výzvou pro všechny, kdo si nechtějí nechat všechno líbit.
