#FebruaryFeels Day 6: This was one of my #FaveNonfiction reads from last year. I appreciated the strategic and determined efforts to also include women coming from outside the US, UK, and Canada regions. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-kFi

Pretty cool!

Seems appropriate for Women‘s History Month.

A shout out for Women‘s History Month from 3 of my Women‘s studies shelves.

#happyxmas Someone was super happy about her Dead Feminists book. They got quite a few books (and mommy did too) plus a big bean bag to read on.

My #FeedaReader package is on its way to @LapReader The card is from Dead Feminist author/artist Chandler O'Leary. Hope everything arrives safely!

This exhibit opened at the art gallery this week and wow! Beautiful prints. Amazing topics. Just wow.
I bought the book and it‘s like a Good Night Rebel Girls for bigger folks.
They brought a mini press and let my kids make a print of the Le Guin quote. Be jealous.

“The most vital right is the right to love and be loved.” #EmmaGoldman #DeadFeminists

Very diverse collection of women mentioned in this series. The broadsides are so detailed and you can tell O‘Leary and Spring tried to make them as personal as possible. The biographies were great intros to the different women. Each of the topics presented are relevant to what‘s happening now. Enioyed this.

Thanks Netgalley for this book in exchange for an honest review.

Just got this book from Netgalley earlier this week and eager to get started. The story of each woman and the broadsides created to highlight different issues is really interesting.

I already did #FeministFriday, but at @strandbookstore yesterday I found this amazing display and had to share it with my Litsy Loves!
#awesomeautumnbooks

Love this cover!

#amazingcover

I have 100% enjoyed this book and I recommend it to everyone! I grabbed it from the library to look thru when I had moments here and there, and it has been perfect for that.

I want to show you some of what the inside looks like. Here are some page spreads from the Harriet Tubman section 💪🏻

This book is about heroic women and their contributions to our world AND how two artists choose to honor these women with their craft. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

This book is AMAZING. The pictures on the inside are fantastic.

There are sections featuring great women like: Harriet Tubman, Marie Curie, Virginia Woolf, Elizabeth Cady Stanton. And more. I'm enjoying it so much.

I carried this to my kids' fencing practice tonight and literally didn't look up from these pages at all. Not once. Oopsy! 🤺🤺🤺😳

My books came in today! I'm starting with "Dead Feminists: historic heroines in living color" so excited!

This one is from my #tbr, but I thought it fit the #historicalheroines prompt. It looks amazing. #feistyfeb

The #feminist portion of today's #bookhaul.
Recently I have been getting back in touch with my strident feminist side [no surprise, eh? And not seen at this level since college!].
These are all #blameitonLitsy titles.
Thanks, team!

Local bookstore display. Love this! #readlocal

One of favorite lesser known (to an American audience) women in this collection so far.

This book is beautiful! I'm enjoying a quiet Christmas at home with just the beagle, the boyfriend, and our books this year. Happy holidays to you and yours! 🎁

Oh How My sweet babes know me❤️❤️❤️🎄🎄🎄

How to solve all your three-days-before-Christmas problems: 1. Go to your local bookstore. 2. Buy a copy of this for every person you know.

This is the most beautiful book.

This book is so fabulous! With so many wonderful drawings, graphics and photos it will keep you engaged from start to finish! And lots of relevant and important facts, too. #bookwithpictures #seasonsreadings2016

My long anticipated hold arrived at the library today and it is more beautiful than I imagined.

This has to be one of the coolest books I've seen in awhile. The list they have put together is great and doesn't include the usual suspects! Very worth a read.

Holy cats and baby kittens! Publisher's breakfast my first week of work. Hee. Better than Christmas. Have you seen this ridiculously amazing book? It is beautiful. And rad times a million. Dazzang, my Littens. I am giddy! #thebookstall #getindie

Third Place Books LFP just announced! Any Seattle area Littens going? It's a school night but 😍😍😍

Here's the thing. I am in love with this book. It should be THE present you give every person you know this holiday season. In fact, give it to people on Thanksgiving so no one beats you to the punch. The art is incredible, the women chosen for the book are surprising, interesting, perfect—seriously, this is the most beautiful book.

At the book launch party. There was a contest for best costume, cake, and a printing press so you could make your own Votes for Women postcard. I've collected their broadsides for a few years, but am so looking forward to having them all (so far) collected in one place with more detailed information about each amazing woman. The authors/artists are wonderful people and #kingsbooks is a great independent bookstore. #getindie

Today's a banner day for news of interesting new books coming my way via Twitter!

We went to the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association show and came back with some riches! Pictured: a book of artful feminist inspiration; a fierce collection of environmental writing by millennials; and Eowyn Ivey's beautiful second novel. Feeling lucky. #weekendreading

I'm so excited for this book to be released in October. The authors/artists are local and I have many reproductions of the posters that make up the book. Thea Foss inspired the character "Tugboat Annie" and founded the Foss Tugboat company in Tacoma.
