I wanted to share this amazing & inspiring book I have read back in 2020.

It tells a story of Edna and her life in Somaliland as well as her brief visits abroad. She is truly a woman of many firsts with extraordinary achievements in her home region having overcome many challenges.

Such a great read for #InternationalWomensDay !

Some great #bookmail! A Woman of Firsts is for #newyearwhodis. It was one of @kaysworld1 ‘s best of 2020, and I was so excited to get it all the way from Blackwell‘s in Oxford. Check out the cool bookmark!

Calling Dr. Laura is a #graphicmemoir. I had it in my Amazon cart for awhile, and when they got down to under 5 copies, I had to pull the trigger. 👍🏻

LeahBergen I love Blackwell‘s bookmarks! 4y
TrishB I have the bookmark too 😁👍🏻 4y

Megabooks @LeahBergen @TrishB this is my first order from Blackwell‘s and I must admit I love the bookmark as well! 👍🏻👍🏻 4y
Megabooks @Sparklemn me too! That chicken! 4y
kaysworld1 Brilliant i listened to her read it on audio. I hope you like it xx 4y
Megabooks @kaysworld1 the book isn‘t available at all in the US (including the audiobook) hence ordering from Blackwell‘s. There were a few used copies online, but Blackwell‘s was actually less expensive. It‘s so exciting reading books I never would‘ve come across! I hope you‘re not having trouble finding my books. 4y
kaysworld1 @Megabooks I am actually having a hard time finding them my local library doesn't have them and neither does audio if I buy them it will only be tagged book. 4y
Megabooks @kaysworld1 I think that‘s part of the problem of being in different countries, especially since I read so many new releases this year. I don‘t know what format you read in other than audio, but if there‘s anything I can do to help you get a copy of books you are interested in, let me know. 4y
kaysworld1 @Megabooks Thank you very much your so kind 😊 4y
