#currentlyreading Woman Talking by Miriam Toews
This is a great book so far but it is making me angry. When it comes to being raped and attacked you do not ever do nothing even when people don't believe you, ridicules you, shames you being quiet is never an option even if you stand to loose everything.
Just my thoughts so far #feminists #metoo #femalefighters #librarybook #wearestrong

1. Like every essay collection, I liked some more than others. Still, it‘s essential reading for #feminists and people who‘ve been #trolled.
2. Turning back time temporarily / time travel

4. Work, gym, laundry, reading, Mindhunter—pretty exciting, right?

This gorgeous picture book is a wonderful introduction to the life and work of Gloria Steinem.
I‘m determined to read more feminist nonfiction this summer. Hopefully, I will get to this one soon. Glad to see lesser known historical figures being brought to attention. ❤️
I‘ve just been told my partner in crime, my other half, my best best friend from high school, Jacquie, has been diagnosed with asbestosis(a horrible lung cancer) and has only a few weeks left. We lost touch after she moved to Queensland with her children, but not a day goes by that I don‘t think about her. The things we got up to as teenagers! This will be my only post tonight, I hope all you wonderful littens put her in your thoughts & prayers💔
Matilda Joslyn Gage, mother-in-law of Oz creator L. Frank Baum, was a #SisterSuffragette. I wonder if that‘s why his books have so many strong female characters? #MusicalNewYear
pickA Duke Changes Everything was such an enjoyable and comforting historical romance! I was just swept away by this book. It felt like the perfect read for a cold winter day! I‘m looking forward to reading more by this author. Recommended!
