Donne che corrono coi lupi | 
Earlier this year I listened to the author‘s 2 hour abridged presentation of this book but I had to own an unabridged copy. I am only 16 pages in but feel confident in saying every woman should own, read and gift this book. I‘m soaking up every word. It‘s just what I needed on the tail end of a year and a half depression. I know I will be gifting this to both my daughters.
What good is a voice without an ear to receive it?
#ItTakesAllKinds
Today‘s #SomeoneRunning prompt made me think of this book which I read while taking a women‘s studies course back in the 90s. I keep meaning to reread it. My thoughts about it were probably triggered by recently finishing Once There Were Wolves.🐺🏃🏻♀️🐺🩶
pickCouple of short stories that obliged me to think about life

Adore this book that champions the female psyche and feminine power.
Also Wuthering Heights had a huge impact on me as a teenager. We need to talk about Kevin is an influential, disturbing novel that explores the nature/nurture debate with devestating consequences.
A strange, very enlightening book. It's funny to some some stories super revealing and some others a complete bore. It is interesting to see which stories resonate with you, and why.
bailedLeggo tantissime recensioni positive ma proprio non ce la faccio a finirlo 😔 help !
Can‘t wait to read these books! I‘ve been reading very good reviews about them both and I‘m so excited.

My list for #bookspin - my reading has been dismal lately. Only one or two books a month. Let‘s try to turn things around.
Happy International Women's Day 💖

@Chrissyreadit look what just arrived today!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! To see it in person, I understand what you were saying about it being a longer book. It‘s not that thick per say, but the book itself is big!!! I think this is going to take us a while to get through. @TheBookHippie
#readmyroom #22booksin22
In 2022, I‘m going to challenge myself to read books I own. @AkashaVampie created the #readmyroom challenge which I‘m combining with my #22booksin22 challenge. The free spaces must be books I own as well, but I wanted to give myself room for mood reading. Please feel free to join along. Tag me in your lists and reading your owned books. If you want to be tagged in my updates, let me know.

1. My was 52 and so far I‘ve read 60.
2. I‘d like to read the tagged book by the end of the year. (And maybe a few others)
It's been ages since I indulged in a luxurious bath, but tonight's the night. Bath ✔️ Candle ✔️ Wine ✔️ Book ✔️
pickOh my God! This book is filled with symbolism and philosophical adventures.
I read this one slowly.
Took my time with it because each fairytale, folk, and story, sent me into a state of reflection and contemplation.
I truly believe as a woman or a human,
I have elevated from this book.
I couldn‘t get to sleep last night until 4am, so tonight I‘m having some chamomile honey vanilla tea to try and help tonight. I‘m pairing it with a good book to relax. #tea
My talented friend Lia did this artwork of The Skelton Women from the book. I love that story. If you go to the link you can also see a funny cartoon as well about The Ugly Duckling. https://www.bookinterrupted.com/post/women-who-run-with-the-wolves-artwork.
Found these 3 in a little free library recently!
My friend has been talking about Women Who Run with the Wolves! So excited I have an opportunity to read it also.
Any thoughts on the other 2 books?
pickI loved this book! It‘s just what I needed at that moment in my life. I was a stay at home mom and my youngest was just about the start school. This book helped ignite my creativity and lead me to start the podcast Book Interrupted. Now I‘m doing what I love, discussing books and connecting with others around the world. Thank you Women Who Run with the Wolves! www.bookinterrupted.com
An Irredeemable Monster and the Power of Dirt by @Meredith.K In this segment of “down the rabbit hole”. A great article about nature and our human interaction with it.

1. Yes I have a wool blanket that is probably 35 years. It has a unicorn on it.
2. Yes I‘d like to read the tagged book before the end of the year.
so-soA bit too much for me. But I did enjoy the mythology and encouragement to women to find their wild side. If the Jungian portions were a bit scaled back it would have really hit home.
Rather than chairs and tables, I preferred the ground, trees, and caves, for in those places I felt I could lean against the cheek of God.
The modern woman is a blur of activity. She is pressured to be all things to all people. The old knowing is long overdue.
“They know instinctively when things must die and when things must live; they know how to walk away, they know how to stay.”
bailedUnfortunately having to bail on this one. It‘s not that it isn‘t good, it is, it‘s just too technical and I honestly just need an easier read.

I wound up listening to a heavily abridged audiobook version of this book, and while I managed to find a couple of gems, like this one, I think I may have come to it too late in my reading life.
Left me feeling: uncertain, unsettled and a tad disappointed

I felt really drawn to read this one the other night. I‘ve only read the intro so far but it‘s speaking to me! It‘s deep and thought provoking but it must be what I need at the minute.
Hello beautiful Littens. It‘s been a while as I have been so busy studying. But right now with all that is going on in the world I can barely focus on anything for more then a few minutes. I have bad anxiety, we all do here, I‘m high risk and most of my family is. How are you guys all holding up? Picture of Adele for cuteness!
Happy #FirstDayofSpring to all the amazing Littens who continue to #KeepLitsyPositive.
Three weeks in and over run. Managed a bit of reading this week but I think the next two days are going to be not much but watching, writing and getting assignments done.
Not much reading going on down here at the moment, head deep in study for the first time in over a decade. Fingers crossed I can get what I need and head to uni!
It‘s 5 am. I have been up for over an hour with this disgusting what and humidity. Today is going to be a long day.
Still plodding through and enjoying this one. My reading time is about to get shorter as I start study this year. I‘m not half way through this yet! I fear I will still be reading it at Easter.
All this required for reading. The noise cancelling headphones to block some back ground noise, the note book for notes (this is the kind of book one must make notes about) and my favourite pen a penpal sent me! Not shown...a massive ice water to keep cool with! In I go!
My resident reading helper.
First coffee of many today. My youngest has literally not been asleep all night 😩
No reading yesterday.... We. We're out expiring our beautiful state and seeing scenes like this one at wool bay.
(If anyone knows who to credit for the picture let me know)
Still going with this book. It‘s slow reading because there is so much to take in, and because my children won‘t give me 10 mins solid reading time in one go! I am enjoying it though.
Another really hot and sticky day in adelaide today. The rain the clouds brought this morning has done little to help.
