I saw Tony Horwitz on book tour a week before he died, and I'm so grateful I was able to hear someone so fascinating speak before he was gone. I decided then that this masterpiece had been on my shelf unread for too long. It's astounding that it was written 20 years ago, since literally everything is the same.

LeahBergen I adored this book. ❤️ 5y
ferskner @LeahBergen isn't it the greatest? I didn't expect to find it so unputdownable. 5y

This is more than just a book about yoga poses. Jessamyn digs deep to break down the stereotypes about yoga commonly found in Western society. She addresses appropriation, body shaming, and coming to the mat no matter your body shape, color or size. It‘s a truly inspirational read.

Totoro likes it too. #RabbitsofLitsy

IamIamIam I'm interested to see what you think of the Friday Night Knitting Club! I've heard a lot about it! 5y
Mdargusch I‘m not a big fan @IamIamIam since I‘m not into chicklit. It‘s readable but I‘m only reading for a #Popsugar19 prompt #bookaboutahobby. I‘m halfway through. (edited) 5y
IamIamIam @Mdargusch Whew, thanks for the warning! Lol, there's a good chance I would not have enjoyed that at all!!! 5y

Mdargusch It‘s a good one so far @TNbookworm 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Let me know about The Gown ❤️ 5y
Mdargusch I‘m 100 pages in and I think you‘d like it @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It‘s a typical historical fiction with multiple POV‘s that go back and forth in time periods. 5y
Reviewsbylola I may need to borrow Towers Falling. Good looking stack. 📚 5y
Mdargusch I thought you‘d be interested in that one @Reviewsbylola 5y
vkois88 The Gown sounds really enjoyable 5y
batsy I bet that Virago cover of Taylor's Angel is gorgeous! 5y
Mdargusch Very pretty @batsy 💙 5y
Mdargusch I had to google the gown @vkois88 so I could see the actual embroidery, then other gowns from that designer, and then photos of the actual workroom. 😄 5y
