Hi, I'm looking for nonfiction books on pop culture like e.g. Girl on Girl by Sophie Gilbert. Thank you! by Smooth-Vanilla-4832 Related: Literaturre from Ireland/U.K. Non-fantasy/scifi fiction novel with a main character who is crafting, building, tinkering a lot e.g. a kid during summer vacation building treehouses, gadgets in his freetime. I’m looking for something that a teenage boy who is into videogames would love to read. Recommendation needed – something like The Ploughmen Suggest me a book which entirely changed your perspective on life Books where unsettling/new/unexpected customs and tribal groups emerge

ray-manta on October 12, 2025 12:04 pm Status and Culture by W. David Marx was a great intro into trend cycles and why things become popular
realginger13 on October 12, 2025 12:25 pm When I read your title I was going to suggest Girl on Girl! Less about celebrity pop culture, but adjacent – Men Who Hate Women by Laura Bates.
