I just started this, but I can already tell it‘s something I‘ll be thinking about for a while.

Maybe the battles of life are best fought without armor and without weapons.
Reading in a hammock- maybe the best way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
Lucy Knisley is a delight. I wish we were friends, but every time I finish one of her graphic novels, I feel like we are already.
Saturday combo of reading for book club and watching the Olympics.
I'm a member of two book clubs, which is pushing me to read more. This month I get a special treat, reading one of my favorite books. It's my favorite sort of story, one where everything has a certain way that it "should be", and a young woman looks at the expectations and chooses her own path. She decides that fencing and magic are exactly what a Princess does, because she is a princess. And who else is going to save the kingdom?
One of the most enjoyable books I've read lately. The first person narrative was well done, with a very organic style of jumping from memory to memory to tell a story of love and creation and politics and humanity. Distinctly NOT a young adult novel, even though that's how it was initially described by a friend.
