The Feminist Movement- Nick Treanor

Just finished this one up this morning! An easy 200 page or so read. It is basically a collection of essays and writings from feminists throughout the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd waves. I thought the collection was really well done. It even motivated me to buff up on my "to-read" shelf on Goodreads, which I hope will influence my recommendations a bit. I like that some of the works were issues that are still under controversy, many of these things we're still dealing with today. And it was funny to see names like Hillary Clinton pop up since we're still seeing her in our daily news coverage as well. There's even a section on androgyny and veganism. Anyway, I would recommend this to anyone. It gives a well-developed overview and insight into what women have been struggling with for hundreds of years.
