Welcome to Litsy!

My love for Ruth is loud & clear (these Magic Sequin RBG pillows were gifted to me this Xmas) so of course this is a big ol “Pick” of a read.

Thanks for sharing @WriterAtHeart !! @TheReadingMermaid , I‘m sending this out to you next week at my earliest opportunity! Apologies for the wait! But this catches me up on all but Tamara‘s picks for the non-fiction round. #WomenReading #LMPBC @Julie548

This was an excellent way to start my reading year. This is a short and streamlined look at Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg‘s life and career. It didn‘t take itself too seriously but treated the subject matter with respect. I only craved more depth. RBG is an amazing woman.

What a gorgeous copy of this @WriterAtHeart !! Cant wait to jump in to this today!

@TheReadingMermaid I sent @Julie548 ‘s pick to you this AM - you should receive around 11/21! 🤗

#WomenReading #LMPBC

Really, really enjoyed this. An excellent overview of Justice Ginsburg‘s life up until about 2015. I can‘t wait until the 800 page biography that should come out on her at some point after death (don‘t want that at this point)

Oh God! I need a Ruth Bater Ginsburg pop! 😍😍 https://www.funko.com/blog/article/coming-soon-pop-icons-ruth-bader-ginsburg

Wow thank you @Jas16 this is super thoughtful! I love it so hard! Littens are the best people :)

Something I‘ve been working on (with a committee) for months finally happened yesterday: Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg spoke at Meredith College, the women‘s college where I work. She was just as amazing and inspiring as you‘d imagine. I‘m so honored to have been part of this historic event for the college which was a bucket list experience for myself.You can watch the event here: https://youtu.be/P5Amfcu2vAA

If you're looking for a good Cliff Notes version of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, start here. The key aspects of how hard she worked to get where she is today, the quiet perseverance that opened the doors for so many of us, and the absolute bond she had with her partner in life are covered with grace and a touch of humor. I especially enjoyed the powerful excerpts from some of RGB's cases and/or statements of descension.

My new earrings came in today! #rbg #dissent

The notorious RBG! 😍

#NatBookFest #RBG

I enjoyed learning about the amazing, inspiring, and notorious Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This book covers her personal and professional life and introduces younger readers to the world RBG lived in and worked (and continues to work) to change. This is a very short read, but it is packed with facts, information, and humor. Though quite informational, the writing is friendly and pulls the reader in, making them feel like they know RBG.

RBG at the National Book Festival this year! I'm so excited. ❤️❤️❤️

The 19th annual Library of Congress National Book Festival will be held Saturday, Aug. 31, 2019, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The event is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 8:30 a.m.

Audio book on the way home today
Not my favorite. It was a but too political for me, but it did give me more of an idea of what women have gone through.

In this nonfiction account of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's life, Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhnik provide an overview of Ginsburg's life, family, and work, as well as her place in Supreme Court and United States history. I was fascinated to learn about her education and her early career, particularly the cases dealing with gender equality. ⬇️

I had a chance to get through a few audiobooks - a kind of trifecta of the female voice in power. First up was finishing this delightful biography of Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Her "notoriety" had exploded over the past several years but she's been a firebrand for equality for forever. I loved learning more about who she is and how she's impacted the world. The story of her relationship with her partner Marty it's a sweet touch throughout as well.

A package just came addressed to me. I asked Chris about it and he just smiled and told me to open it. It was this mug. A little surprise from my wonderful, feminist husband. 💖

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I‘m ashamed and embarrassed to admit I didn‘t quite realize the level of badassery that is pioneering feminist Ruth Bader Ginsberg. This book, written by the creator of the brilliantly titled Notorious RBG Tumblr, is an excellent overview of RBG‘s life and accomplishments. I can‘t wait to read more about her life!

Thoughts on this book. Want to read it

She fought so many laws and paved the way for women. And making new law so that women could begin to have some rights in the USA. #hero

I cannot even tell you how happy this book makes me. I have always been a fan of RBG, but this just makes me appreciate her even more. Everything she has done and how she has done it is simply amazing. I am proud this is a women I can look up to.

⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️½ • When the subject matter is Ruth Bader Ginsburg, can a book even be bad?! She is a true legend and inspiration. This book isn‘t perfect, but RBG sure is. I display this book proudly next to my RBG action figure.

I meant to lost this yesterday so hopefully its still there. Ive been wanting to read this forever!

“I think that men and women, shoulder to shoulder, will work together to make this a better world. Just as I don‘t think that men are the superior sex, neither do I think women are. [I]t is great that we are beginning to use the talents of all of the people, in all walks of life, and that we no longer have the closed doors that we once had.”

“For a while, her favorites were books about Greek and Norse mythology, and then she graduated to Nancy Drew. ‘This was a girl who was an adventurer, who could think for herself, who was the dominant person in her relationship with her young boyfriend,‘ RBG remembered happily.”
