Read More Women is Electric Lit’s biweekly series, presented in collaboration with MCD Books, in which prominent writers-of any gender-list their favorite or most formative books by women and nonbinary authors.

Sourdough is nominally about making bread, but it’s also a magical-realist romp about technology, startup culture, and dealing with forces beyond your control.
