#FebruaryWrapUp. 3 bingos and #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin read. It was unusual month as I normally read equally between print, digital and audio but half of my February books were in print. 16 books 5958 pages a very good month 😊
I only read one non fiction book in February but it was a winner off my #AuldLangSpine list and is the best of the year so far.
This book was 11 years in the making and I think it would have been incredibly hard to write an unbiased account of all the players in Roe v Wade. I think Prager did that. It is long. I listened on audio, got lost a couple of times and cringed a bit at some of the descriptions. It is complete account of the woman behind Roe, her family and children as well as the religious leaders and politicians of the time. Another great pick from my #ALS list
Mr K had a work trip to Miami… I sent him off with a list of titles. Bless him - the shop didn‘t have any in my list so he choose three himself. Love Mr K ♥️
I have really upped my nonfiction game this year so am super stoked about my #AuldLangSpine list from @Amiable In January I will be reading at least one of these NF and one F book but intend, as always, to read as many off the list as I can throughout the year. I have already read and loved 10, 12, and 13 so I have a great bunch of books to explore. Well done, Amy! Thanks Alisha for a great match!
This book is excellent and I cannot get over how sad the life of Norma McCorvey (“Jane Roe“) was -- she was used by pro-choice feminists and she was used by Operation Rescue and I'm not sure she knew herself how she felt about abortion rights by the end.
Very well-researched account of Roe v Wade, the landmark court case that affirmed a woman‘s right to autonomy over her own body. It tells the story of abortion in America before and after it was legalized through the lives of several people associated with the case, including Norma McCorvey (aka “Jane Roe”) and the daughters she gave up for adoption. It‘s a challenging, complicated, emotional read.
#Nonfiction2022
Prompt: I‘m Body Positive
Goals are to complete my #ChunksterChallenge2022 book, enjoy my reads for #NYWD22 and get a coverall on my bingo board for #Nonfiction2022.
My word for 2022 is “calm.” I‘m working to still my brain when it‘s darting all over the place, slow down and embrace the moment.
I am enjoying this tagged book— it‘s interesting and informative.
Thanks for the tag, @MoonWitch94 !
