There was great satisfaction in shoving a bad book through the return slot and hearing it splat against the other books in the bin on the other side of the librarian's desk
I get the same feeling slamming the return button on a bad book from Libby 😭😭🤣🤣
On another note, oh how I long to be a 70 year old woman dilly dallying with her dog and thinking up crazy life stories for people I've never met ✋😭

... and then suddenly I wasn't alone at all. I had a dog. Never again would I be alone, I thought. What a gift to have such a companion, like a child and protector...
The amount of faith and companionship this woman has in her dog is incredibly relatable.

If I took a shot every time she said "her name was Magda," I would have been dead in the first hour of reading this book.

This year has been really tough in my personal life (although Pagebound has been a joy amidst the bs) and one of the things I've had to grapple with is my relationship to anger. As women, we're socialized to be understating, empathetic, and forgiving, often to our own detriment. Instead of feeling angry, many of us (myself very much included) tend to feel hurt or sad. I've found so much inspiration from women in literature who embrace their anger and act on it, even if it's in "unhinged" ways.
My therapist asked me to read "The Dance of Anger: A Woman's Guide to Changing the Patterns of Intimate Relationships" and I HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to tap into their anger and use it in healthy ways. Anger is such an important emotion to be in tune with; it lets us know when our boundaries have been crossed and when we're being treated unfairly.
This quest means so much to me and really feels like a personal quest as well; I hope others find just as much inspiration from these books as I have.

Whether you love to hate or hate to love 'em, these literary bad girls are anything but well-behaved. *Disclaimer: we do not literally support the illegal and oft cruel behavior of these protagonists (usually); we support the authors bold enough to write them (always).
