The Mental Load and The Emotional Load are extremely enlightening, and I would recommend them to anyone. They are collections of social issues that are challenging or don't get enough attention. They range from unpaid labor to racism to pregnancy and delivery, rape culture, police violence, parental leave, etc. They mostly focus on situations from female perspectives, but I felt like a lot of the scenarios could be applied to situations and relationships beyond the specific ones mentioned.
