Hello #SheSaid.

What are you reading or catching up on this week?

Also

Up Next:

* I know it‘s a new release & will have long waiting lists, so put in your library holds now or add it to your holiday wish list.

Bookwormjillk I‘m going to start Unshrinking soon. I only bought it in July. I really needed this catch up month 😂 5d

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Bookwormjillk me too! Seriously. That one I did read on time and it was very good, I hope you enjoy it. But I have fallen behind on a bunch myself, so I understand 5d
Amor4Libros Thanks for the heads-up on January‘s pick. Just put a hold at the library 😊 5d
KathyWheeler I just bought Nobody‘s Girl, so I‘m all prepared for January. I‘m going to finish Hags. 4d
ncsufoxes I‘m still finishing Eve (far behind). Enjoying it, just hard finding quiet time to read. Started the first few pages of Hags but haven‘t had a chance to get back to it, need to finish by the end of the year. I recently bought Nobody‘s Girl, so I‘m ready for January. 4d
vlwelser I'm listening to Jacinda Ardern's memoir. I've seen her speak in person. The audiobook is lovely. I did not do this with #SheSaid in mind, but it fits the assignment. 4d
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser it‘s always nice when that just falls that way. I love a good book coincidence 2d

Pickpick

#Read2025 #MonthlyNonFiction

Finished last weekend for #SheSaid & my third #Roll100 October pick #38 Any nonfiction. A sobering (because I‘m well into the hag camp age-wise) read about the demonization of 40+ aged women. The author hits some points well but lost me in others especially when her points were more chaotic. It was interesting & provocative which is why it gets a pick, but I‘m not sure I learned that much new from reading it.🤷🏻‍♀️

julieclair Great, helpful review. Makes me feel I‘d like to read a summary or outline of this book, or hear a lecture on it, but not read the whole book. 5d

#BookReport

I finished Hags #SheSaid, and Mary and the Rabbit Dream

I read the Maria Stepanova one and Pumpkinheads (not pictured since I picked it up from the library yesterday and then several of these were already returned)

I continued my yearlong reads and have started listening to Year of Wonder again

I continued A Thousand Feasts

I continued All the Sinners Bleed on audio

I‘m reading Mother Mary Comes to Me

TheKidUpstairs I LOVED Mary and the Rabbit Dream! 6d

Pickpick

An interesting look on middle-aged women and how they are treated. The author focuses on women born between 1965 and 1980, but we will all become middle-aged sometime. The focus is not the 3s: fertility, femininity and fuckability, and how women are viewed according to these parameters and middle-aged women don‘t come out favorably

I‘m glad #SheSaid put this on my radar

repost for @Riveted_Reader_Melissa

#SheSaid

I started putting the voting together but myself & a few others were running behind on our reading AND that we had very few fiction nominations for December.

So for November: catch-up on any of your #SheSaid books, or dive into something and tell us about it. I‘m hoping to catch up &
reread Wild by Cheryl Strayed.

And nominate a few fiction choices for December on the original post.

#SheSaid

I started putting the voting together but noticed that both myself & a few others were running behind on our reading lately AND that we had very few fiction nominations for December.

So for November: catch-up on any of your #SheSaid books that you want/need, or dive into something and tell us about it. I‘m hoping to catch up &
reread Wild by Cheryl Strayed.

And nominate a few fiction choices for December in the comments below.

Karisa I‘ve just started Nobody‘s Girl, the memoir released last week by one of Epstein‘s victims. Sad but important read. It feels like it‘s release was kind of buried last week with all the chaos lately. Also, the author committed suicide in the spring so maybe that‘s why it doesn‘t have as much attention… 2w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Also it is Non-fiction November, so if anyone saw any good challenges for that this month, let us know. 2w
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Karisa That is on my to read list. I nominated it to be in the vote. I thought about just making it November‘s pick, but I know many will struggle to get it at the library right after it‘s release date. But I think it is going to be an essential read for everyone in the current world . 2w
Riveted_Reader_Melissa Maybe just junk the fiction for December and make that December‘s 🤷‍♀️ 2w
MallenNC I like the idea of having a free for all in November! I‘ll tag a few fiction books that I‘ve had on my TBR for a while. 2w
MallenNC And American Daughters by Piper Huguley 2w
Suet624 Trespasses is so darn good I‘d read it a second time. 2w
Bookwormjillk Great idea!!!! 2w
KathyWheeler I like the idea of a catchup month. I‘m really behind. 2w
Bookwormjillk Trespasses sounds really good! But I‘m up for whatever. 2w
Singout Is there a list for early 2026? I missed it! 1d
Riveted_Reader_Melissa Just January is announced. That vote will be up soon, but it has a lot more books in it so is taking me longer to get together. 1d
