The Power of the Male Gaze… And realizing it’s not powerful after all. Read Review Below Rating: ★★★ I applaud Emily’s honesty and candid nature when she writes about her body image, and the role it’s played in her life.

Buckle down for a beautiful tragedy. Read Review Below Rating: ★★★★ I finally read this classic by Leo Tolstoy, and now I need a break.

She is independent (as independent as a woman could be back then), has the courage to turn down an engagement when…

A lot of interesting stories crammed into one. Read Review Below Rating: ★★ I only say this book was ok because I wanted more. Gabriela Garcia weaves together stories and histories of a family of Cuban women, but we needed more story (especially from Dolores, her absent mother, Cecilia, and Maria Isabel). We needed more…
