How do you pick 25 Women in Music? Well luckily for us Rebel Girls does another great job. There are some you would expect and some I had never heard of.

Well researched and easy to read like all other Rebel Girls.

Some of these ladies I was familiar with, and some I knew their work without knowing their name, and some were new to me - a lovely mix! I liked the mix of music genres covered by these 25 talented women, as there truly is something for everyone here. Bonus points for including a transgender woman! And an extra star for the shout out to The Linda Lindas in the 'more' section at the end!

Thank you to NetGalley and Rebel Girls for providing me with a copy of this book. I absolutely loved reading about so many of our musical role models including women like Selena, Joan Jett, Lizzo and so many more. I can’t wait to get a physical copy of this book to show both my children!

I enjoyed this book so much! As a music lover myself and a teacher, this would be a joy to share with students and children. I really enjoyed reading the biographies and the fact that they are kid friendly and choose facts that matter to children. I also like the wide range of musicians and the fact that music business professionals are also included!

The Rebel Girls brand is growing and the latest book in Rebel Girls Rock is a delightful addition. From Dolly Parton to Queen Latifah, it highlights women of different ages, nationalities and creeds who have made it in the world of music. It sends a lovely message to its readers and even has a section at the back about how to highlight yourself as a Rebel Girl with activities and fun things to try. Thanks to Netgalley and the authors and publishers for a temporary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks NetGalley for the preview!

Another great addition to the Rebel Girls collection! It was so wonderful to learn about some new women in an educational but interesting way. Dolly Parton was absolutely my favorite!

Another great collection of stories about extraordinary women- this time, those in the field of music. As always, I enjoyed learning about these women, some I was familiar with and some that I was not. I look forward to reading more Rebel Girls books in the future. Fans of the other Rebel Girls books, as well as readers that enjoy brief biographies, will enjoy this one.

‘Rebel Girls Rock’ is a NonFiction illustrated book that beautifully highlights numerous influential women in the music industry. The book also creates a space for the reader to write their own story, and gives detailed tips on how to make your own music.

I really enjoyed reading this. I learnt about so many new artists, musicians, DJs, and producers that I hadn’t heard of before, many of which I will be binge-listening to their music and researching further.

Personally I prefer the Rebel Girl books that focus on the story of one particular woman, however this is a great collection of stories of women who made it in the music industry. The diversity in the choices was great and some I had never heard of before. As always illustrated and a beautiful layout.

The thing I love about the Rebel Girls series is how many new people I discover - alongside older artists I might not know as much about. The series is very US-based so for example, this book has Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, Le Tigre). Each artist has a page devoted to them - one with information and facts, the other with a picture.

I think it's a great way to open the minds of younger readers, possibly even early teens too. My daughter hates me showing her my music, but actually quite likes it if she's in the right mood. If she had this book alongside what she's listening to it could make a difference.

I found it easy to follow as a book - I'm recovering from a brain injury so have to choose my books correctly. The text was fine and I learnt facts about artists that I didn't know about them.

If your taste in music is on the quirky side, this could be the book for you to introduce your young ones to the people who created it. I love Rebel Girls books and yet again this one doesn't disappoint.

Love this whole series and reading it with my daughter (we read one page every night before bed). I can’t wait to see what they come up with next.

Another fantastic addition to the Rebel Girls series! Like the previous books I've read, this one is incredibly powerful and inspiring. I still hold the same opinion - it's a wonderful approach to connect with people of different genders, ages, upbringings, and opportunities worldwide, and inspire them to pursue their dreams.

It's a quick and easy read, perfect for flipping through whenever you have 5 minutes to spare. It would be better to read it in short bursts rather than cover to cover, as the stories can blend together otherwise. Taking time to reflect after each unique story allows for deeper contemplation. It would also make for a great coffee table book, adding a touch of inspiration to any living space.

These Rebel books never disappoint! With the Education laws cutting down the hours for artistic development (at least in my country), it's good to have books such as this one to keep students engaged and to see how it's important to keep trying, chasing what they like and enjoy doing. Perseverance is a trait that needs nurturing. I loved that this book has both current and more historical musicians! Can't wait to read it with my students.

Every time a new Rebel Girlsbook comes out, I am really excited.
So when I was sent this eARC, I immediately started reading it.

This collection features 25 stories of extraordinary women in music. It includes performers from many different countries, eras and genres.
I really enjoyed reading it and as always all the stories were very inspiring.
I got to learn about women in music that I didn't know before. Of course the illustrations that accompany each story are perfect.

I will never not adore this series! I absolutely LOVE that Rebel Girls highlights incredible women too inspire young readers. They do a fantastic job with choosing a variety of women of different backgrounds and ethnicities. They don't just focus on white American women, which I believe is important for girls all over the world to see themselves reflected in these inspirational women.

I have been enjoying this series. The books are quick and easy to read, perfect for the YA and middle-grade levels. This book si Rebel Girls in music, which makes my music lover's heart so happy. Can't wait to see what other books come from this series.

Great round-up of women musicians! I'd heard of at least half of them. And an extra 25 at the end! A lot of fun!

Rebel girls rock!! Yes they do. My daughter (6) and I love reading about inspirational woman and this was no exception. From the stories we read, my daughter wanted to listen to some of the music of the inspirational musicians.

I love reading about Rock icons especially women who rock!
This book was bought and in my personal library to share with everyone that comes and visits.
A Must read for anyone who loves MUSIC!

Thank you to netgalley, the author and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange fot an honest review.

This is no different from the other Rebel Girl books in the way it is colorful, inspiring, and empowering, and even though I’m not exactly its target reader, I felt the message of the stories in this book deep in my heart and I wouldn’t hesitate to gift a copy of this to any young readers I know. I liked that it tried its best to showcase women of different ages, ethnicities, nationalities, and advocacy, and that the stories were written in simple language yet with great effect. All the accompanying art is gorgeous, and I thought each one represented the featured individuals well. I was so happy when I found Blackpink, Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift featured in the book!
