Review:Salvation at the Dairy Queen kept my interest with humor and real life events. It isn't one of those kind of books I couldn't wait to get back to but I did look forward to relaxing and reading about what would happen next. It didn't end with everything perfect, just like real life. There are meaningful quotes as well. I am not a prude but it is a pleasure to read a book without the need for an X rating. Read more

Review:I enjoyed Temple Secrets. The description of the South Carolina coastal area and Savannah made me want to take a trip. I loved the character of Queenie and the relationship between Queenie, Violet, Old Sally and Rose was precious. Definitely a feel good book. Read more

Review:This is a really interesting idea well realized. It's the perfect companion to The Handmaid's Tale, and I would really love a third book that lands somewhere in the political middle between those two books. Read more

Review:Caitlin Moran, thank you for this book. It was so funny and a great reminder that the women's movement hasn't gone anywhere. I am so glad I didn't have to wait too long for Moranthology to follow. I have read both books several times in the past 30 days. I love them. Read more

Review:This book will change your life. It sure changed mine. As a millennial feminist, the messages in Jessica's book resonated with and empowered me. What's more, her humor, whit, and charm all contribute to making what should be a necessary read for all women a deeply satisfying and entertaining one as well. I can guarantee you this book will make you a smarter and more thoughtful person -- and, if you're a woman working under the patriarchy, a more successful, kick-ass, take-no-prisoners, invaluabl...

Review:Even swaddled in turgid academic jargon, a tedious childbirth story is still a tedious childbirth story, and a “fluidly gendered” love story is still just a bourgeois romance. Citing all the equally jargon-loving academics and writers that you know or cribbed from doesn’t make you look smarter, just more derivative. Memoir need not devolve, as this one does, into mind-numbing solipsism—coincidentally, I was reading “The Beautiful Struggle” at the same time as I read “The Argonauts,” and Nelson w... 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

Review:This collection contains a wide variety of Mary Oliver's poems--nature, prose poems, etc. It is has something for every mood and is a good collection for Mary Oliver fans as well as those new to her poetry. Read more

Review:Im a stunning girl (not trying to be conceited...this is fact) but have never been treated, tricked on or sponsored. Could never understand how to get a man to do that until reading this. I had all the qualities needed but never knew how or in what order to apply them but NOW.....IT'S ON AND POPPIN! Read more

Review:What a strange fascinating narrator! While Jane Eyre will always be my favorite of Charlotte's novels, Villette holds its own. I admit the narration will not be for everyone. Often the side characters take on brighter more perceivable places in this story than it's hero, yet it is still compelling. I highly recommend this novel, and it's intriguing and and illusive narrator. Read more
