Recs if you like Animal Wife...

A tribute to a type of cover, originally deemed Girls with Fucked Up Faces, that never fails to grab my attention. Not all of these are books I’ve enjoyed or endorse or even read, it’s just all about the covers.

Small press or indie published books that fit the category of weird girl literature

Theres been a definite trend of ironically using retro graphic art on the covers of books recently. This list covers the midcentury atomic age of 1940-1960. Recommendations always welcome!

Women pushing the boundaries of what’s acceptable in pursuit of their urges and desires. They’re behaving badly, unconventionally, and selfishly. Some are violent, some are horny, some are traumatized, some are angry—but all of them are finally acting for themselves.

An expansive list born out of combination of feminine rage, weird girl lit, “good for her”, women vs the void, monstrous feminine, and everything in between. Books written by women, trans, and nonbinary authors only.

Collections and anthologies!
