Saturday soccer and new books. ⚽
I am so intrigued by the description of this book!! I can't wait to learn more about Lilith.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Excited to be starting this one - Nikki Marmery‘s first book was fantastic.
It‘s not often that a book matches my book pillow so well. 🍅
(I know that‘s a tomato, but we‘re just gonna pretend it‘s a pomegranate, mmmkay?)
If you've ever questioned your faith in a God, read this. If you've ever felt alone and misunderstood as a woman, read this. If you've ever felt your voice is not being heard, read this. I don't think I've ever been more enlightened than while reading this! It truly has changed my life!
1/3 of the way through this one. I have to say the humor is spot on, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
so-so“Lilith“ by Nikki Marmery offers a feminist reimagining of ancient creation myths, focusing on the character of Lilith, who is traditionally portrayed as Adam's first wife. The book takes readers on a journey from her expulsion from Eden through millennia of history as she seeks to restore balance and equality in the world.
pickIt's a time for feminist retellings! This time we've got the first wife of Adam, Lilith. From being the first woman to goddess and demoness, Lilith is cast out of Paradise for her strong will and refusal to conform to patriarchal control. Told from her viewpoint, she travels throughout history as an immortal bearing witness to the Biblical changes and they way women are treated in this historical fiction meets gender study of a female icon.
