Hello, my fellow #GirlBosses! I am here to recommend you guys with 5 Books for #GirlBosses. Shall we begin?

I. #GirlBoss by Sophia Amoruso

The book #GirlBoss was written by and about Sophia Amoruso’s success story. Sophia Amoruso’s story is centered around her having a deep-rooted passion for retail which led her to sell vintage clothing online. As her online shop gained more exposure from hard work and consistency she, in due time, received all that she put in. 

For those who don’t know she is basically the woman who created the term #GirlBoss that we use quite frequently today! How awesome is that? 

II. The Bomb Life: My Brand. My Terms by Claire Sulmers

The book The Bomb Life is literally the BOMB! She literally exemplifies what a #GirlBoss is! Like how Drake’s famous saying went, “Started from the bottom, now we here.” And in those exact words she started from the bottom and became this huge Fashion industry blogger with her site FashionBombDaily.com. Moreover, she was listed as one of the top 5 influential style bloggers in the world. So if you aspire to break into the fashion industry you should archive this book in your personal library. 

III. The Secret by Rhonda Bynes

If you want to attract all that you aspire to have the trick is to believe. This book is definitely a must-have for those #GirlBosses who yearn to have that dream house, that ideal boyfriend, career, and the list goes on but as it’s said it is all in the power of thought. 

“A person is what he or she thinks about all day long,” by Ralph W. Emerson.

IV. 48 Law of Power by Robert Greene

The title of the book is very straightforward. The book focuses on how to acquire power in different ways from how to observe, how to use your enemies for the better good, how to gain control without stirring any problem and the list goes on. Surprisingly a lot of celebrities and successful business people have mastered the laws in this book. So for all of my #GirlBosses that love the idea of obtaining power this book is for you.

V. Around The Way Girl by Taraji P. Henson

This is yet another success story with having to start from the bottom. For those who don’t know, Taraji P. Henson is an actress in the film industry. In this book, she tells you all about her trials and tribulation in becoming this huge success in the acting industry. So for the #GirlBosses who seek to become a breakthrough actor in the film industry, this book is a great read!
