MallenNC I‘m not quite caught up but I did find the audiobook and I‘ve made a lot of progress. I‘m not really enjoying it! Everything is pretty bleak with the main character but I‘m hoping I understand what the author was going for when I get to the end. 2d

vlwelser @MallenNC it is pretty bleak. I'm hoping to find out what the author is up to in this last section. 2d

MallenNC @vlwelser I think it feels especially bleak bc I‘m reading it among a bunch of holiday stories! 2d

vlwelser @MallenNC I don't really read holiday stories but it's not doing well against the fairy tales I've been hooked on lately 2d

MallenNC @vlwelser I don‘t typically but I decided to load up on them this year — some of them are mysteries so that balanced things a little 2d

Hello #SheSaid!

How is the book going? I‘m way behind and still packing, but hoping to be on the other side soon and able to unwind with this book. So I hope it‘s a good one!

Bookwormjillk I still haven‘t started this one…but I will eventually! In the meantime I did receive last month‘s book from you and will read it soon. Thank you so much! 1w

vlwelser I'm reading this alone it seems 😂 serves me right for lurking while you all read the last one. The book is good even if it's a bit slow. 1w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Bookwormjillk you are welcome, I‘m glad it arrived safely. Just let me know when you are ready to pass it on. No rush, holidays and all. 1w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser I started it last night! So go me! U-Haul and big furniture goes tomorrow so hopefully I can be settled in enough to read this one before the end of the month 😂 1w

vlwelser You're fine. I'm trying to stay on schedule because I have to travel for the holiday. Is there a January book yet? I like to plan and I didn't see a book list. 1w

Deblovestoread I‘m refining my commitments for the new year and would like to be removed from the tag list. Thank you 🩵 1w

Singout I don‘t think I‘m going to get very far with this one because I really want to do my #nonfiction2024 ones and I‘m helping my elderly parents move! (to a seniors‘ residential home😢). So I feel a bit of your pain. 1w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Deblovestoread no problem. I completely understand that 2d

Woman on the Edge of Time | Marge Piercy

"Why should I? You're crazy as a loon!"
Luciente beamed, capturing her hand in his dry, warm grip. "Ever see a loon, Connie? It's the sound they make that's crazy. They're plain but graceful birds that glide with only the head full out of the water. Like turtles, they swim low.
Maybe I can show you loons when they migrate through....Don't fear me.

Hello #SheSaid!

Sorry for the very late post today. I am in the process of moving and just completely lost track of time today. But, better late than never I guess…

Everyone get the book and get a chance to start it yet, or everyone running behind like me. 🫠

DGRachel I got the print version from my library and I‘m going to grab it on audio as well. Best of luck with your move! 2w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @MallenNC & @DGRachel thank you both. It‘s a process that‘s for sure! 😂 2w

Karisa Good luck with your move! I‘m just starting the book. Had to grab the audio version since the other has a two week more wait. 2w

charl08 Hope the move goes well. My copy hasn't arrived yet, fingers crossed it comes soon! 2w

AllDebooks Good luck with the move. I'm about to start audio version 🎧 2w

Bookwormjillk Good luck with your move. I‘m hoping to start this week. 2w

vlwelser Good luck with the move! I hate moving. I did read the first section and it was slow at first but I'm definitely getting into it. I love that she uses the logic that if you're crazy you think you don't belong in an institution. That circular logic that allows them to keep you. Looking forward to the next section. 2w

Came across Duck River Books in Columbia, TN. Found one book I had been looking for (Meditations) and one that was a total surprise: this CP Gilman collection.

Living a Feminist Life | Sara Ahmed

Feminism can be experienced as giving life, or as taking one‘s own life back, a life that you might have experienced as what you have given to others, or even what has been taken by other people‘s expectations.
