The Reckless Kind
The Reckless Kind | Carly Heath
2 posts | 4 read | 3 to read
It is 1904 and the partially deaf Asta Hedstrom is engaged to Nils, but she does not want to marry him: she would rather spend her time with her best friend Gunnar Fuglestad and his secret boyfriend, Erlend, who belongs to the wealthiest family on their Norwegian island; so when Nils gravely injures Gunnar, she shuns her marriage and moves in with Gunnar and Erlend in a secluded cabin above town--and the three misfits set out to win the annual Christmas sleigh race, and prove to that they belong together, in spite of the villages prejudices.

I asked my husband who he would pick as #independentwomen
He selected:
Me - for challenging myself, him and others to do better
Michelle Obama - for not only being a genuine role model for all but also for raising the office/perception of the role of First Lady.

I haven‘t used this app in 3 months 😱 I suppose that‘s what happens when you are a teacher.

I just finished this book — it was for a book club and while I didn‘t read in time for the book club discussion, I did finish. It had some great representation and while it was slow at times, ultimately it was enjoyable.
