Our June 2018 Book of the Month is Eggshell Skull by Bri Lee! This episode, we review Bri Lee's incredible memoir and discuss the impact it had on us as readers and why we believe it is such an important, timely book. [Content warning: mentions of sexual assault.]

Eggshell Skull is the story of Bri's journey through the Australian legal system; first as the daughter of a policeman, then as a law student, and finally as a judge's associate in both metropolitan and regional Queensland--where justice can look very different, especially for women. The injustice Bri witnessed, mourned and raged over every day finally forced her to confront her own personal history, one she'd vowed never to tell. And this is how, after years of struggle, she found herself on the other side of the courtroom, telling her story.
