#two4tuesday

1. I have 3 possible options: (a) Diagonally Parked in a Parallel Universe; (b) Well That Didn‘t Go As Planned; or (c) Traveling Purposefully in a Vague Direction

2. I‘m not sure how I‘d define a life “well-lived” but Madeline Albright has certainly had an interesting life.

TheSpineView Love you 1st choice of titles. Thanks for playing 8mo
AmyG Can I use title 1 and 2? 😳 8mo

Okay y'all, what book (fiction) should I read if I'm obsessed with the show Madam Secretary? Smart, awesome woman fights to make the world a better place through foreign policy as Secretary as State. 🔥🔥🔥

wanderinglynn So not a fiction book, but I‘d recommend any of Madeleine Albright‘s books. (edited) 6y
Caterina @wanderinglynn Oohh good to know, thanks!! I tagged her book because it showed up, but I've never heard of her. 🙊 (Showing my age 😂) 6y
wanderinglynn @Caterina She was Secretary of State under Clinton. Amazing woman. Fascinating biography. 6y

The stack I‘m hoping to have signed tomorrow at the National Book Festival. 🖋😀

Aimeesue I don‘t get my books signed at the NBF; I‘m always too busy running around from speaker to speaker. Hoping to see Justice Sonia Sotomayor! Good Luck! 6y
wanderinglynn @Aimeesue ooh, it would be awesome to see her! 6y

1. Accidentally Engaged is the most recent one I couldn‘t finish. I have a total of 19 DNFs in GR. Life‘s too short & there are too many wonderful books out there to try to push through a book I‘m not enjoying.
2. Dark chocolate covered pretzels, Pirate‘s Booty, Hawaiian Maui onion chips, & gummy bears
3. The tagged book. Madeleine Albright has a fascinating life. I‘d love to got to lunch with her. What an amazing woman!

monkeygirlsmama You‘re so right about there being too many good books to waste your time on those that don‘t inspire you to keep reading. 7y

#readingcompanion Caspian was very sad to be trapped in the bookcase. He didn't appreciate me laughing at him and taking pictures.

silentrequiem @Kimzey He had only himself to blame for wanting to jump into the bookcase and then climb down the back. 8y

#booktober is Memorable memoirs today, and this is one of my favorites. Madeleine Albright is one of my feminist heroes, and this book was fascinating. @RealLifeReading

RealLifeReading It made me think of that episode in Gilmore Girls! 8y
ValerieAndBooks Haven't read this yet but loved poring over her Read My Pins book. 8y
Crystallinegirl @ValerieAndBooks I got to see her pins displayed at the Smithsonian - it was really, really cool. I have not yet actually read the book though! 8y
