Welcome to Litsy!

The title is pretty self explanatory in what its about.

I feel that I finally had some arguments if I ever where to get into a discussion with a pro-lifer. And that actually feels great.

For me gaslighting was a term that suddenly turned about and was everywhere. Now I feel that I finally understand what it is and how it‘s used

I‘m so glad #SheSaid made me aware of this book so I read it

I read about half of this before deciding to ditch—more of a focus on potential romantic tension than actually telling the story.

It's interesting that the Melanie Rehak book (which is great!) has almost the same title and is the same color as the original, 1975 edition of this Bobbie Ann Mason book. Mason's book covers lots of sleuths, not just Nancy, and has Mason's personal commentary. I love Bobbie Ann Mason and her thoughts on the Bobbseys, Cherry Ames, Trixie Belden, and others were entertaining. I think I'd like to try a Judy Bolton, but probably not a Vicki Barr.

Probably the most useful book I'll read this year. Yeah, I'm old. But it's great information to really believe that you're not going insane. #16-2025

None of the books that I read wholly within March were noteworthy, so the tagged book is one of the favorites I finished in March. I need to get a copy so I have a reference of artists that I want to treasure hunt in museums.

I did also greatly enjoy Emily Wilson's translation of The Odyssey.

Well, March whizzed by!
🌸 Did you read this month's #buddyread
🌸 Did you like the author's style?
🌸 Were there any particular women that stood out for you?
🌸 Did it give you more of an insight into VW?

Started this morning!

First impression: A Southern "society woman" seemingly content on the outside is perhaps dying inside. The world around her seems all proper, straight, satisfying & cold, but something iconoclastic & real is burning inside of Mrs. Edna Pontellier.

Finished today for #SheSaid March & it‘s one of those books you can‘t really like because it‘s so damn frustrating especially in our current world but it also an important read. I missed Manne‘s previous book Down Girl but I understand that this book builds & expands on it & focuses on male entitlement & how patriarchy “punishes women for not giving men the moral goods to which they are, by the terms of our social contract entitled.”⬇️

Hello #SheSaid. Posting a bit later today. I hope you are all finishing up with the book and if not learning a lot, at least feeling less alone and “gas lighted” when you are in certain situations and being told it‘s normal, not a problem, etc.
