The Tiger's Wife: A Novel | T�a Obreht�

#fiercefeb #imeverywoman here‘s a collection from my tbr . An eclectic mix of women writers, hours of great reading, I hope! 🐉

398.2 I read Still Alice. The only problem it got me thinking that “oh no, I forget things like that all the time. Should I be worried?!” 😳 ( I am 29) lol It‘s a good book. 7y

Bklover @398.2 I‘m 58, and reading Still Alice put me in a complete panic. I still get jittery just thinking about it!😳 7y

batsy Sweet selection! I Capture the Castle is just wonderful :) 7y

Dragon Thanks @398.2 the movie was good so I‘m betting the book is even better. I think reading is probably good for the brain. 😀🐉 7y

Dragon Thanks @Bklover I can see I‘m going to have to do puzzles and improve my memory before I read Still Alice 😀👍 7y

Dragon Thanks @batsy good to hear , it was a total #blameitonLitsy purchase, I‘m not even sure I know what it‘s about. Oh no, I better go read the blurb and start on my memory exercises 😀🐉 7y

Cinfhen Nice assortment of book titles...I'm always wondering if I should buy/read/add

I Capture the Castle

Dragon Thanks @Cinfhen I‘m just reading a blurb on the I Capture the Castle cover by Erica Jong “ A delicious, compulsively readable novel about young love and it‘s vicissitudes.What fun!” Sounds good. 7y

Lindy @Dragon @Cinfhen @batsy I‘m in a YA book club that‘s been meeting for more than two decades. When we did a poll of which book out of all our discussions was best beloved, the one with the most votes was I Capture the Castle. I really like it too, but my favourite from that book group is

Skellig

Dragon Thanks @Lindy I‘ve been looking at my copy but the type seems so small. Obviously I‘ve been reading too many ebooks or I need new glasses 😂 I‘m going to watch for Skellig and the booksales this year. Thanks for the recommendation 😀🐉 7y

readinginthedark Still Alice was so good! 😭❤️ There are a few others here on my TBR, as well! 7y

Dragon Thanks @readinginthedark Still Alice gets a lot of Litten love 😀👍🐉 7y

readinginthedark Good! I think it‘s the best representation of Early Onset Alzheimer‘s that I‘ve seen in a book. It doesn‘t get a lot of attention, and Genova really did her homework. The love is deserved! 👍🏻 7y

Every Body Yoga: Let Go of Fear. Get on the Mat. Love Your Body. | Jessamyn Stanley

#fiercefeb #imeverywoman My current read from this amazing and inspiring woman..... I‘m reading this for #booked18 #bodypositivememoirornovel ... I tore a disc in my back a few years ago and exercising became very challenging... I have been afraid to go back to yoga, but this wonderful book has inspired me to be kind to myself, embrace my limitations and start a home practice without judgement.... day 4 and feeling good!

Cinfhen, batsy

Reecaspieces Yoga is a mainstay for me...I hurt my shoulder a few weeks ago and I am missing it terribly. Enjoy your practice. There are quiet a few good ones on you tube. Ali kaminova, heart alchemy, Leslie fightmaster. Just to name a few. 7y

batsy ❤️ 7y

Cinfhen That's awesome and these photos are inspiring!!! 😇🙏🏻love this❣️ 7y

KarenUK @Reecaspieces Thank you! I'll definitely go check these out! 7y

GlassAsDiamonds I really ought to follow your lead and haul my a** back to yoga....!! 😊😊😊 7y

Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books | Azar Nafisi

#imeverywoman #fiercefeb great respect for teacher Azar Nafisi, bold and fierce, she secretly met with 7 of her most committed female students to read banned western literature, every Thursday. All the while Islamic morality squads carried out arbitrary raids across Tehran. Truly inspiring ❤️

Cinfhen, batsy

batsy Great pick! This was a good read. 7y

DeborahSmall @batsy it was great 7y

Dragon I found this book so interesting and terrifying. How quickly this author ‘s country changed from women holding jobs at universities to women being forced out of everything. 7y

We're Going to Need More Wine: Stories That Are Funny, Complicated, and True | Gabrielle Union

#FierceFeb #ImEveryWoman Although I have very little in common with Gabrielle Union in most areas, she is honest & laid back with a healthy dose of sarcasm that makes her relatable to a wide variety of audiences & makes her seem like the kind of 'every woman' you could easily hang out with over a glass of wine (or cup of tea). I'm only about four chapters in but I'm enjoying her memoir so far--especially with her reading it. 📚👍

Cinfhen, batsy

batsy Sounds good, I've seen a lot of love for this on Litsy :) 7y

Cinfhen Waiting for my #OverDrive copy! She does seem very likeable ❤️ 7y

UrsulaMonarch What a lovely blurb!! 7y

DebinHawaii @batsy It's a definite #blameitonlitsy pick! 👍 @Cinfhen I was happy when my Overdrive copy was available--hope yours is soon! 🤗 @UrsulaMonarch Thank you! 😀 7y

Around the World in Seventy-Two Days and Other Writings (Revised) | Nellie Bly

"... not a wince of fear or trepidation, and no youngster just let loose from school could have been more merry and light-hearted."
#FierceFeb #imEveryWoman puts on a brave front and does not shy away from challenges

Unfamiliar with sea voyages did not stop Nellie Bly from travelling around the world in a bid to beat Fogg's fictional record.
