Part memoir and nature writing this also includes some Celtic mythology and fairy folklore. It should come with a warning “might make you run away to Ireland, Scotland or Wales.”

#WeDoNotCare that we have 1000+ reading choices at home. It is important to support our local library and support authors who are fighting the good fight plus a couple Booker nominees.

Hope you had a good flight and are having the best time! @dabbe

AmyG True. We don‘t care at all. If I had a $1 for every time my husband said….you need another book??? (edited) 2mo
BarbaraJean @AmyG My first thought in answer to your hypothetical: “You could buy a lot more books...“ 😂 😂 2mo

IriDas The library has really helped me in my need for new books. I read, but I also find comfort in the presence of books. Libraries have saved me a lot of money which at present keeps me out of debt. 😊 📚 l 2mo

Oof. This hurts my heart. What a light they left in the world. I first read the tagged book of poems because of Alyisha‘s #ALSpine list and it made me laugh, cry, and feel both seen and exposed. Read their books and watch their videos. It‘s good stuff and a bit heartbreaking that there won‘t be more.

Ruthiella ❤️❤️❤️ 2mo
JamieArc @yourfavouritemixtape I think you read this one from my ALSpine list, right? 2mo

monalyisha I don‘t even know what to say, honestly. I was hoping something profound would come to me but it hasn‘t. I‘m glad we all got to share their words around our community. If you get Andrea‘s newsletter, their wife is continuing it — and stoking the flickering fire of their legacy! 2mo

🌀 this book opened doors that I‘m still learning how to walk-through. & for that, I know I‘ll be returning to it‘s pages later on in life. I feel it reaching toward me, but there are pieces I know I‘ll understand more deeply with time and experience. #nonfiction #audiobook #feminism #naturalitsy #reading #bibliophile #uncommon

📚Reading Reflections At78%📚
As powerful as Blackie's words are- I have a problem with such stark contrast between lyrical storytelling & the raw, messy edges of everyday life...
However, I admire that she shares voices of other women, offering #ecofeminism & real-life examples of how we can shape our own journey & bring that wisdom back into your immediate world.

Herland: Easyread Comfort Edition | Charlotte Perkins Gilman
post image
Mehso-so

Charlotte Perkins Gilman's 1915 book Herland is a thought-provoking work of utopian fiction and a time capsule of early twentieth-century feminism. On the eve of the First World War, sociology student Vandyck Jennings goes on an expedition with two of his friends to search for a society rumored to consist only of women. On the way to what they will name "Herland," Van and his friends ponder the type of women they hope or expect to see when they...

MaggieCarr ...get there... but they find no fantasies when they arrive. Herland is an all-female, community-driven utopia. Van and his friends are skeptical of a society that doesn't even need men to procreate, but women and girls who live there have all been raised in a world entirely removed from the patriarchy of the wider world. To them, Herland is a paradise; there are no wars, no conflicts, and no oppressive concepts of gender. These young men... 6mo
MaggieCarr ... however, are not easily brought into the fold. During their time in Herland, Van and his friends must decide whether they will remain entrenched in their own views of women and society, or if they will open their minds to a way of living, they could scarcely have ever imagined. 6mo

Herland keeps showing up on feminist book lists I'm trying to read through. Noticed it's book #2 in a trilogy. But book #1 is rarely mentioned. Do I need to read the first to understand what is happening in Herland?

ChaoticMissAdventures I keep seeing it too and never realized it was a series! 6mo
MaggieCarr @ChaoticMissAdventures maybe someone can help us! 6mo
Lauranahe I didn‘t realize that either! 6mo
Bookwomble You can read it standalone. Its feminist credentials are era specific, so expect some 😬 moments along with the ❤️ 6mo

AmyG I am woke if the opposite means not feeding hungry children, hatred for immigrants, the LGBTQ community, people of color, taking away medicaid from people who need it, not funding charities overseas, not funding education ETC ETC ETC 6mo
Soscha Reading builds empathy, being able to see yourself as an other in different lives, different worlds, different cultures. If you‘ve ever wondered why you‘re not likely to find a MAGA mindset among book readers. It is more than intelligence (though something to be said there too) it‘s EMPATHY. 6mo

ncsufoxes @Soscha a friend of mine reposted one of Heather Cox Richardson‘s daily post. My MIL wrote “that‘s too long to read.” (If you guessed it she‘s a maga). I of course had to post something snarky in response to her saying these daily postings give me hope & that knowledge is power. She is a person that doesn‘t read, she watches a certain channel all day. I told my husband the other day I‘m so happy that he is nothing like his parents. He said I got 6mo
ncsufoxes An education, I keep learning. My husband has his PhD, I have a MS, our house is full of books. My mil is stuck in her old thinking & she doesn‘t want to move beyond. I partially feel bad for her as an empath but I also think you need to unlearn that sh@t. My mom is the same age & she‘s worked hard to learn more about things she didn‘t know about. But then again I grew up in a house full of books. My mom‘s parents were immigrants but she said they 6mo
ncsufoxes always had books. Books & education is key, which is why they want to continue to destroy both. 6mo
ncsufoxes @AmyG I feel the same way. Call me woke, call me a bleeding heart liberal, call me empathetic…I‘m not offended, all it means is I care about other people. I don‘t understand how people can be rejoicing over people starving, homeless, losing healthcare. It‘s beyond comprehension. It hurts knowing that there are people that just don‘t care. 6mo
MittenGirlPeach @AmyG this all day! 🧡🧡🧡 6mo
MittenGirlPeach Perfectly put! 6mo
AmyG @ncsufoxes I truly believe fear is a driving factor in what makes many older people Maga. The world is changing and they don‘t understand. Fox perpetuates the fear….add hatred of certain groups of people. Some would rather see the people they hate “lose”….than themselves “win”. The. Add some other reasons. I swear….we are in a Stephen King novel. 😩 (edited) 6mo
AmyG Thanks @MittenGirlPeach 👊🏻 6mo
ncsufoxes @AmyG totally. My mom was telling me about one of her maga friends talking about trans athletes (my mom is anti maga). I kid you not a few days later my mil repeats the same line word for word to my husband (my mil is maga & loves faux news). My husband told her, “our kids have all gone to school with trans kids & they‘re just fine.” She didn‘t know how to respond. Fear, miseducation, repeating lies & stereotypes to the under educated are all what 6mo
ncsufoxes continue this mess. My mil lives in a fancy neighborhood but watches anyone who comes in her house (out the door or on the ring camera) because she‘s been convinced by the news that people are coming to rob her daily. She is afraid to unlearn anything from her past. My oldest went toe to toe with her over the summer about her “views,” she shut down & told him he was just wrong. She doesn‘t want to engage in any conversation. She twists her ideas 6mo
ncsufoxes to fit whatever narrative she wants it to fit into. She literally doesn‘t understand how this administration is affecting anyone on our house. She just sticks her head in the sand. I really think a lot of this is going to end when there is boots to the ground, going door to door to talk to people. Education is key & Civics class (edited) 6mo
Susanita I went to lunch today with my husband and another couple. When they started in on all their conservative BS I just sat and read Litsy. I know there‘s no point in arguing. 6mo
Chrissyreadit same. 6mo
Chrissyreadit @AmyG I agree it is fear based for many but the unwillingness to learn and have accurate information presented is making it harder and harder for me to be engaged with them. 6mo
AmyG @Chrissyreadit @Susanita I agree. How can you engage with people who don‘t share the same facts, the same values? Like talking to a wall. (edited) 6mo
