My Radical Homemakers Reading List
It's Monday! Time for our weekly installment of Radical Homemaking. Interested in learning more about what that means, check out THIS post and THIS post.
Last year I shared some of my favorite Radical Homemaking books with you here on the blog. This year, I thought I'd expand this list! When I get ahold of an idea, my first step is usually to hit the books. After a year and a half of reading and perusing books on the subject, here are some of my favorite titles. These books contain a wealth of information, stories and tips. These authors are passionate, transparent, informed and some of them are also fabulously self-effacing and funny. Here they are in no particular order:
