This one was good- but so so heavy!
I‘m listening to this one - and although I‘m enjoying it and believe the info id important it just feels like a lot. The world feels scary and ugly and listening to about how women have been marginalized for years just — I don‘t know if I can consume all this at this time — not sure if I am gonna DNF yet —

Just got back from a local street pride rally- mostly positive honks & waves from cars- a few denigrating shouts. Stopped in to pick up a hold at the library & they had a bug display of books, pins, flags for Pride month. #pride #indivisible
This is not a pleasant story; rising star criminal defence barrister Tessa is assaulted and has to decide whether to take her turn on the other side of the bar table, as victim and witness. I was completely hooked; if I have any criticism it‘s that the odd element felt overdone or heavy handed; a little formulaic in novel format perhaps. I am a sucker for the apparent glamour of the barrister/courtroom life and this was excellent on that.
I‘m so excited to start this study in June. It‘s my #2025nfbookchallenge. I always start the year strong with whatever challenge I set for myself. Then comes March… I‘ve been struggling to finish my nonfiction choices, but I‘m pretty sure that won‘t be the case here. I loved the documentary which brought out some excellent discussions. #readmorebooks #nonfiction #spirituallife
