#myhero and a model of true leadership as well as an accomplished author. This woman is exactly who I want to learn from. I look forward to becoming more civically engaged after graduation. The work is just beginning. #thankyouGeorgia #BLM #Democracyforall

arubabookwoman I didn‘t realize she wrote so many books! We definitely owe her our deepest gratitude for her efforts in registering voters, and for the results of the Georgia election! 4y
bookishdawg “Lead from the Outside” is so good 👍🏻 4y
sprainedbrain Thank goodness for Georgia! 🇺🇸 4y
SconsinBookyBadger I was aware of her book Our Time is Now. Stacking the other three and checking to see if they‘re available on Libby. Or buying them if they‘re not. (edited) 4y

I needed some online retail therapy today and since I'm already waiting for way too many books to come in, I decided that I was going to redo my upstairs bathroom. Sneak peek on the theme! 🥶

Future me may end up having regrets but present is freaking excited for everything to come in 🤗🤗

ShyBookOwl 100 pages in to my first reading of The Shining. King's writing style is hit or miss for me but this one is hitting so far! 5y
CindyMyLifeIsLit Hmmm . . . I would probably flee the house without hesitation at the slightest sound coming from behind that!! Might also choose another bathroom for middle-of-the-night visit. 😂😂😂 (edited) 5y
mollyrotondo Hahahaha I love this! 5y

ShelleyBooksie Love the curtain! 5y
TheLudicReader Sending you some extra love 😘 5y
JoScho Can‘t wait for more pics! 5y
FantasyChick @ShyBookOwl I feel the same. A lot of SK's works are hit or miss. The Shining is one I really loved. Still have to get to Dr. Sleep though! @CindyMyLifeIsLit You're going to hate the rest of the stuff I bought 😂😂 Honestly, though, I have a feeling I'm going to set it up and then start avoiding it because it's too creepy 😂 5y
FantasyChick @mollyrotondo @ShelleyBooksie @JoScho Call me crazy but I've always loved this pattern. It's just so tacky and retro 😂 It'll be a few weeks before everything comes in but I can't wait to set it up. And there will be pictures!! 5y
FantasyChick @TheLudicReader Thank you! 🥰🥰 It has been a tough couple days over here but we'll get through it. Stay safe over there!! 5y
CindyMyLifeIsLit @FantasyChick Don‘t get me wrong! I am one of SK‘s most devoted Constant Readers! I ❤️ ALL things King! That doesn‘t mean I wouldn‘t be a tad reluctant to go sit next it in the middle of the night, while everyone else is sleeping 😁. I‘d actually love to see the rest of the ensemble, so be sure to post! 5y
BookishTrish Oh I love this #myhero 5y
My.heart.is.lit This right here is amazing 5y
FantasyChick @BookishTrish @My.heart.is.lit I'm kind of in love with it! Now if it ever gets here.... 5y

The Roosevelt family kept 8000 books at Sagamore Hill and Teddy Roosevelt read 1 to 3 books a day! A DAY! He was a speed reader and had a photographic memory! 😍 #MyHero

readingjedi At 2 to 3 books a day it would still take him 147 years to clear my TBR list! 😉😂😭 5y
IamIamIam @readingjedi 😂😂 Knowing that, I bet he'd see you, raise you and still cash in!!! LOL... BULLY!!! 😁 5y

Discussing what gift cards/bonuses I got at work, I mentioned a $50 Amazon card from a (soon to be former) colleague. My husband got very pale. It seems he had tossed the Christmas card from this person. (He‘s one of the main reasons I‘m happy to be leaving this job.) But my hero went out to the street, in the dark, and rescued my gift card. (I may not like the attorney, but I‘ll spend his money. 😆) #myhero

BookNAround Good save on hubby‘s part! 6y
Lcsmcat @BookNAround Yep! Especially since tomorrow is trash day. 6y

#myhero is my dad, Jim. I was 22 when I found out he was not my biological father. From him, I have never felt loved as anything less than his son. I would later find out the sperm donor lived 2 blocks away our whole lives and people would ask if I wanted to meet him. I always say I know who my father is. Jim, when he found out I was in the low reading group in 1st grade, wouldn't let me go outside before we did word flash cards. He's my dad.

TrishB That's lovely 💜 parenting is the actions not the biology. 7y

#90sInJuly #MyHero Two of my heroes: Marion Nestle and Michael Pollan are food activists who educate and fight to ensure we have healthy food to eat and communicate it in an interesting and entertaining way. Here they are with a couple of my favorites of their many books.💚🍴🥑🥒💚

EchoLogical Has Michael Pollan ever been on OWN's Super Soul Sunday? I think I saw him in an interview with Oprah discussing his book. 7y
DebinHawaii @EchoLogical I didn't see it but it probably was him. I know Oprah had him on her show before. 👍 7y
EchoLogical @DebinHawaii I remember wanting to read the book mentioned but I never got around to it. 7y

Jabberwocky Love love love Polan. Did you ever see his series about the elements in cooking on Netflix? So amazing 7y
night_shift In Defense of Food is great! 7y
Cinfhen Not trying to suck up but you are my #FoodHero 💜I told @KarenUK last night, I'm hiring you to cater my daughter's wedding~ just need to find a groom 🙄 7y
[DELETED] 57804897 I love Marion Nestle! So under recognized! 7y
DebinHawaii @EchoLogical I don't know which book he was promoting but I have enjoyed all of them.👍 @Jaberwocky I did! I was just thinking of watching it again when I was making the collage! 😀👍 @UnidragonFrag It is! 👍📚 @Ostaff1 I think so too--she is amazing but doesn't get the recognition of others.💚 7y
DebinHawaii @Cinfhen @KarenUK Hah! I thought my ears were burning yesterday. That's really sweet--tell your daughter to get busy & find someone. 😆 And I'm still jealous that two of my favorites got to hang out. 💜💜💜 7y
Cinfhen I'm trying to convince my hubby we need a Hawaiian vacation but he's not buying it ☹️one day I'm gonna be sharing an avo toast with you & Max 😻😻😻 7y
DebinHawaii @Cinfhen Everyone needs a Hawaiian vacation! 😆👍🌴🌺🍍Max & I look forward to having avo toast with you. 😽❤️ 7y

Playing catch up on #90sinJuly:
Heartless because I can't help think of poor Catherine and the possible #heartshapedbox where her heart lives, Still Alice for both #myownworstenemy and #beautifulstranger
Lastly, #myhero and #shero Shonda Rhimes and her book, Year of Yes! Her incredible writing and the inclusion of multifaceted characters represented by POC in all of her shows have changed my life and I love her for it!
@Cinfhen @Robothugs

EchoLogical I'm going to have to give Still Alice it's own post at some point and explain why those hashtags apply. I ran out of characters. Lol 7y
Cinfhen Love all 3 choices😍I read Still Alice, excellent book & fabulous choice ✅✅✅ 7y
EchoLogical @Cinfhen I felt really clever for using that one. Lol. Have you seen the movie? 7y
Cinfhen No, I haven't seen movie. I should though, right??? 7y
EchoLogical @Cinfhen I haven't either! I was about to ask you if it did the book justice. Lol 7y
