First book I have started reading in months!

I'm taking Wednesday off work as a mental health day because I need a rest I am mentally and physically exhausted, so a bit of self care today and tomorrow: new tattoo, book shopping then a walk, dinner with a friend and catch up.
It was bliss. 😊

We the Mapless by Ian McBryde (litsy doesn't have it so can't tag it)

I love this book.
Very informative and researched well, there are some part's that got me agreeing and some that made me angry learning about the brutally of woman.

Pandora's Jar by Natalie Haynes

So far all I have learnt is every story has r**e in it and every woman trusted a man and he betrayed, violated and humiliated her one way or another!

(Not hating on anyone but from the Greeks and Roman time's till now nothing has changed)

celebration of 70 women, girls, gender nonbinary people who have changed and are still changing the world, Civil Rights Movement, Stonewall riots, Black Lives Matter. With a radical and inclusive history, Modern HERstory celebrates seventy women and nonbinary champions of progressive social change in a bold, colorful. Despite making huge contributions to the liberation movements of the last century and today.

#femalepower

kaysworld1 these trailblazers come from backgrounds and communities that are traditionally overlooked and under-celebrated: not just women, but people of color, queer people, trans people, disabled people, young people, and people of faith. Authored by rising star activist Blair Imani, Modern HERstory tells the important stories of the leaders and movements that are changing the world right here and right now--and will inspire you to do the same. 5mo

As expected the guy ended up with the girl by the end.....
The end felt a bit rushed to finish but a overall good read.

It been a while since I read a book over 600 page's but I did enjoy this one and it's very different from the film, as usual!

I found another book shop today in Newcastle
The book Greengrocers.
They had a great clearance section outside so I got this chunkster for $4.
I was a bit disappointed in there true crime section but we can't have everything in life.

As I'm in Australia I thought I'd listen and learn about a few Australian serial killer's.
Listened to this this on audio while working.
Not a bad book but the author made it too personal for my liking she should of just kept with the facts of this killer's.

I'm staying in Rome but today I am travelling to Naples.

Hi guys. The litsy app has deleted itself off my phone and I can't find it to reinstall so for now I'll be using my laptop. It's never happened before so hopefully soon I'll find it and get it back.

Birdsong28 If you have an android phone you have to Google and download the file to install it as it's no longer on Google play. This is the link I used as I recently got a new phone and discovered this fact. https://baixarapk.gratis/en/app/1037017919/litsy 1y
kaysworld1 @Birdsong28 unfortunately my phone won't let me download it. 😒 do you know why it was taken off Google play? 1y
Birdsong28 @kaysworld1 Don't know. I know that you can't buy kindle books off the Amazon app now you have to do it on the website cos of Google and their policies so it might be something to with that why Litsy is not on there. You might have to change your settings to allow downloads from other sources and that might work. That is what I did. 1y
BethM @kaysworld1 I remember seeing something on the fb about it being google play that removed it. 1y

I throughly enjoyed this book.
It felt like a 'Battle Cry' book with a side dish of hatred, witchcraft, taking no shit, standing up for other woman.
