Review:This book is very interesting facts about Anne Boleyn, but is very dry and reads like a historical thesis. I am slowly reading through it as I am supposedly a distant relative of hers on the Howard side. Susan seem to be really wanting to get out the facts about Anne rather than hearsay which has previously been written and I praise her for that, but it is a slow read. Read more

Review:First, the title is so a propos! I have no Jewish roots, so I was surprised that this story was so compelling. The obvious research necessary to write about the world of European Jews in the 1'660's was fascinating. To think that knowledge, writing during that period was reserved only for men is mind boggling! Here is where we meet young intellectual scribe, Ester, juxtaposed with the aging historian Helen in modern day London. Their male counterparts were the blind aging rabbi and Aron, a ... Read more

Review:This book was difficult to read because there were so many basic grammatical errors and misspellings. There were numerous incorrect facts. It seemed like it was more about getting as much in as possible without really paying attention to the basics of writing. I would not recommend this book. Read more

Review:Graeber's book is a monumental investigation of debt and money in terms of how these entities have actually existed in relation to each other over the course of history. His investigations show that throughout history, there have been as many economic arrangements and monetary practices as there have been societies. The modern world, in which one monetary regime dominates the civilized world, is an extreme anomaly in this regard.

Graeber demonstrates fascinating connections between comm... Read more

Review:Highly recommend!!! It's sort of like the best textbook ever, but instead of long chapters on each person, it's usually two, maybe three pages per person. You get a very well written, concise description on that person, and an illustration. It's a place to jump from to learn more in-depth before moving on to the next woman of history. There is a lot of upfront opinions sprinkled liberally; opinions that range from thoughts that source material might be bias, that crappy things happen, that p... Read more

Review:Svetlana Alexievich was awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize for literature. ‘The Unwomanly face of War’ has been translated by star Russian to American-English translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, and is being published in the re-vamped Penguin Classics series. That constitutes three good reasons to pay this book some attention.

The author inserts her own voice from time to time, but for the most part her book consists of extracts of letters from and interviews with women who took... Read more

Review:I rarely read these book despite my love of sociology yet minutes into Traister's work and I was addicted. I barely made it through the third chapter before telling all my close friends (married or single) that they had to purchase it.

This book truly addresses the majority of the fears, joys, challenges and rewards of being single from multiple perspectives. Furthermore she manages not to tear down married women or pit them against single women in any way.

This should really be re... Read more
