Female Rage Books for Fall

By Spencer Margaret 

Ah, fall. The leaves are changing, the morning air has a crisp bite to it, and so do those apples you happily paid $35 for at the orchard with your friends/partner. Your sweaters are fully in rotation, boots are ready for walking, and pine-scented candles have been lit.

Right around now, you’re probably also digging around to find your Halloween decorations. Ghosts and pumpkins, skeletons, and my favorite of all—witches. This is the time of year that we’re able to lean into our fascination with witches in a way the public (*cough*, patriarchy) deems seasonal and appropriate. It’s the perfect time to cozy up with an atmospheric, spooky read, or my favorite new genre: female rage books.

Downtown Kansas City is getting something you may not have realized was missing: a sports bar dedicated to women’s sports. Rachel Glenn and Monica Brady, partners in business and in life, are the masterminds behind The Dub. We spoke with them about the exciting new spot heading our way. Get excited Kansas City!

Get Comfy, It’s Cozy Game Season

By The Catcall Team

We’ve got nothing against intense video games with lots of action and noise, but sometimes the moment calls for something a little more relaxing. Cozy games are typically low stress, and the right one can feel like a warm hug. They’re a great way to unwind or set the tone for the day. 

What makes one person feel toasty and snug might not be the same for another. Popular games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley are classics for a reason, but if you’re looking to switch your cozy gaming up with something fresh, then you’ve come to the right place! At Catcall, we love a cozy game. So we rounded up our team and shared some of our favorites. Give ‘em a play and let us know what you think.
