I enjoyed this book even more the second time through. I liked having the physical book to better take everything in. I also enjoyed following along with the audiobook which really helped me figure out the pronunciation of the Irish words. I enjoyed reading this for St. Patrick‘s Day. Maybe I‘ll make it a yearly tradition.

Rereading/listening to this beaut for my Irish March celebrations. This is another choice that also dovetails nicely with Women‘s History Month.

I loved this one so much, I just knew I had to have it in physical copy. I am so excited to have this properly in my library, now.

I enjoyed this book and got a lot out of it. It dovetailed nicely with other things I‘ve been reading and learning about recently. I will definitely be reading the sister book, “The Heroines of Avalon.” Worth the read. Good overview without being too overwhelming. If I have a complaint it‘s that Judaeo-Christian traditions were very obviously allowed to come into the equation in one place that wouldn‘t have existed in pre-Christian society.

Having to remember this in a whole new way right now. I should be sleeping so much more than I am to help my stupid broken ankle heal.

This seemed so poetic. I‘m not sure if it‘s from the original mythology, or if it‘s the work of Sullivan, but I like the imagery.

This is true, too. We need to love and respect ourselves, others, the world we live in, and the planet we live on.

This reminds me of when Percy tried really hard not to ask Annabeth how she was born, but was REALLY curious. lol

We need some more fairytales about this chick! More goddesses, less sexism.

A mystical island where women are in charge and men come round for the fun stuff. Hm. How do I get to this island?!

In retaliation for the anti-female BS in “The Purity Myth,” I‘m reading this about some goddesses.
