but for the first time.

I'm just getting into the meat of it and it's really pulling me in.

I absolutely could not put it down. What a powerful book.

I is gonna break my heart, isn't it? Is it full of abuse and stuff. I cant read that. But everyone says... lol that I have to read.

Plus more "modern" writers.

LOL!

Since getting kindle... a whole different world, lol

hardcover and on my iPad I'm reading a David Baldacci.

Rarely am I enthralled with fiction these days, But this one has me hooked!

I am obsessive with books and love series.

He's a Stud, She's a Slut, and 49 Other Double Standards Every Woman Should Know

I just finished the "slut" chapter.

Next on my list is going to be Handmaid's Tale... I've been convinced to give it a go.

It's frighteningly prophetic. Another along those lines is He She and It by Marge Piercy.

no end in sight. Every time I think it stops shocking me they say something even worse.

robin morgan, marilyn french, susan faludi, sherri tepper, charlotte perkins gilman, just to name a few

Love her

As the only person in the world who never watched the movies and has no idea how it ends, I don't want any spoilers....

When it come to feminism, I don't really read anything apart from what I read in this group. My more heavy-weight reading moments are devoted to things like this book I'm starting after I finish Harry Potter called 'The Road to Martyrs' Square: A journey into the world of the suicide bomber' (Disclaimer: reading about terrorism doesn't mean I support it!)

I got the play by play from my daughter who devoured the series while growing up. Of course I have seen most of the movies. I never read the books. My husband did so it became more of their thing together

I am thinking of starting the game of thrones series because I loved the tv show more than I ever expected. I have it on the kindle but really haven't made enough of an investment in it that it swept me into it yet. I would love to find something that would grab me from the get go and drag me along without a lot of effort. I long for some easy yet not simple reading

Last November I got dragged along to the Harry Potter Exhibition in Sydney not knowing the first thing about it, and horrified my sister by musing that Bellatrix must be a pretty cool character. So I got the Harry Potter box-set for xmas and ordered not to watch it till I'd read the books

I'm no help on the easy yet not simple reading. I just turned round and checked out my bookcase and it's groaning under books on the Middle East and stuff by Chomsky and Benny Morris. I'll keep an eye out for the game of thrones, though, coz once I'm done with Potter, I wouldn't mind something else lightweightish compared to what I usually read...

I'm on the 5th book.

The second book almost killed me, but the 3rd book really
hit it out of the park!!!

Fabulous!

(It may have helped that I was on vacation, and could really
sink into it for an hour or so at a time.)

I don't seem to be able to read as often as I used to, but
I blame the INTERNETS for that. DU specifically.

but as far as feminist blogs I like I Blame The Patriarchy, Feministe, Miss Representation, About Face, Skepchick, and a few others I can't think of off the top of my head.

One of my favorite books. Each time I read it, I see something I missed before.

I'm always looking for something new to read.
