  3. #Bookmail! Surrealist artist Leonora Carrington is under-appreciated as a writer.

  4. 😆 Oh, the riveting tale of a book-mailed-to-Wilcannia #saga, expertly interspersed with the gripping narrative of a child's sticker count! 📚✨ In the thrilling climax, we ponder the herculean efforts required to snag FIVE whole #stickers in music class—truly, a question for the ages. 🎶🙄

  13. Aside from all the death/funeral related content I consume, I typically read about 100 novels a year. Some stand apart from the others and bear multiple rereadings and recommendations. These are three, united by a theme of righteous feminine rage. They even follow a path through womanhood:

    Nightbitch - the childbearing years, standing up against societal expectations and raging against the patriarchy

    Lessons In Chemistry - the working mom years, standing up against societal expectations and raging against the patriarchy

    The Change - the post menopausal years, standing up against societal expectations and raging against the patriarchy

    I’m so glad books like this exist. I’m grateful to authors who prove that we can break free from internalized misogyny and embrace our rage. It’s not unfeminine to be angry, and we can be powerful at age stage of life.

    Special thanks to Kirsten Miller (for the book mail and the kind words), Rachel Yoder (for responding to my fangirling and expressing interest in my own work), and Bonnie Garmus (whom I have not yet reached out to but admire nonetheless). Write on!
