Non fiction!

Sorry, I never even saw this one get posted!

It looks really interesting! I just went and requested it through interlibrary loan, which can sometimes take a while, but I'll get to it as soon as I can.

I wasn't able to get to this one either, but I'm still going to try to get through it soon so we can have a discussion about it :)

I'm reading this now and it's pretty incredible.

It just came in from the library, so I'll get to it in the next couple of days - looking forward to it.

I plowed through a huge chunk of it last night, I just couldn't put it down!

A Bad Day For Sorry by Littlefield, Sophieis, is a great fiction! It will make you laugh, and cheer for women standing up to domestic violence.

I was finally able to read this. After the first page I was all set to compare this to Something Fierce: Memoirs of a Revolutionary Daughter, the politically active mother, risking death (and the subsequent abandonment of her children) for her political beliefs. Something Fierce showed us this from the children's point of view, and I was hoping this would show it from the mother's point of view. Unfortunately I don't feel I can make the comparison. While she keeps talking TO her children, she tells us next to nothing ABOUT them. I wish she had spent more on the day-to-day realities of what it meant to drive off, not sure if you would return.
