Chrissyreadit It‘s Eve Ensler, so I‘d say worth the risk! 4y
AkashaVampie @Chrissyreadit never read anything by her. 4y
ElizaMarie I‘m curious to see what you think. I don‘t know if I‘ve read Ensler before so I‘m a bit curious (edited) 4y
AkashaVampie @ElizaMarie I tried to look up emotional stuff on goodreads and that was the first thing that came up. The cover kinda jumped out at me. 4y

spent yesterday morning rereading an old favorite, it's not a perfect collection & there are definitely some pieces that are better than others but I have so many memories attached to this that I can't help but love it

"It's easier to be mean than smart / But that isn't who you are."

This book wasn't what I thought it would be, but I like what it is. There are so many things here that young women (and men) need to hear. I think it would be most enjoyable for 13-17 year old budding feminists. #poetrybreak

I thought this would be an encouraging "it's okay to feel things!" book, but mostly it's making my empathic/anxious self want to cry and hug my babies while they're still little. I might need to read something a bit more lighthearted before bed, and try this again in the daytime. ? #empathprobs #anxietyprobs

saresmoore Those two hashtags pretty much define my life, but it doesn't stop me from reading stuff like this ALL THE TIME. #savethepolarbears 7y
obviateit @saresmoore I sometimes wish I could do that! The only way I can function is by limiting my exposure to things that make me feel too much. 7y
saresmoore @obviateit I suppose I limit my exposure, too...especially with people who meet the same criteria! 7y
