@Eggs & @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Apart they are a girl trying to find her way in the world, learning hard lessons and changing into the women they are becoming. Together they are a force and mighty.👭👭👖
Oh and a warning, the last book gutted me, I read it bawling in the breakroom at my job at the time.

Traci1 Such a great series. 3y

Eggs Nice choice!! I‘ve read 3 or 4 / are there more?? 3y

Tera66 @Eggs Goodreads lists 6, but two I think are about other girls.Its been awhile since I read them. The last one is Sisterhood Everlasting and was devastating to me, but its worth the read. It's about the 4 main girls. 3y

Eggs @Tera66 it‘s the fifth one I didn‘t read according to bookvooks. People upload books there for free reading. I started it already. Thanks for the recommendation 💕 3y

Tera66 @Eggs oh my gosh, can't wait to see what you think! 3y

Grief Lessons: Four Plays by Euripides | Euripides

Several years ago, I binge read the great tragic poets: Aeschylus, Sophocles & Euripides. As the title indicates, this is a collection of tragedies. Included is one of two plays that Euripides wrote about the #mighty figure Herakles. In Herakles, his family is sentenced to death by the Gods while he is away fighting in the underworld. He returns in time to save them, only with disastrous results truly befitting a Greek tragedy.

Liz_M I enjoyed this edition/translation. Probably would have loved it more if I hadn't read it on an overnight flight (to Greece). 3y

vivastory @Liz_M How long were you in Greece for? I actually haven't read Carson's versions of Euripides. I mostly relied on the Greek Tragedy in New Translations series. I'm planning on rereading several of them soon & will be checking out Carson's version. One of the most memorable events I've attended was Carson reading her translations of Sappho accompanied by choreography. It was pretty remarkable. 3y

Liz_M That sounds wonderful. I was in Greece for about two weeks, island hopping with a friend and then several days in Athens. It was lovely. 3y

BarbaraBB @Liz_M Those are my plans for this summer - by sailing boat 🤍. Which islands did you like best? 3y

Eggs Fabulous choice❣️Love the classic tragedies 👏🏻👏🏻 3y

Liz_M @BarbaraBB I only went to a handful - Paros, Delos (day trip), Mykonos, Crete, and Hydra. I found a quiet area in Paros and it was lovely. Crete has some fun day trips and good food, Hydra was charming (no cars!). I wish I had gone to Santorini (apparently there is a gorgeous bookstore there). 3y

BarbaraBB @Liz_M Thanks! I just started planning a bit and will take your recommendations into account. Especially the bookstore of course 😀 3y

Reckless | Selena Montgomery

pick

The fierce and #mighty Selena Montgomery aka Stacey Abrams has my vote!Curious about her romance/crime/legal thrillers,I chose Reckless. Brilliant and Beautiful,high- powered Atlanta attorney Kell Jameson returns to her hometown to defend the woman who raised her against a murder charge. She not only comes to terms with her past,but meets Luke,the local sheriff. Kell may have found her match. Fast paced.Perfect palate cleanser. More like dessert.
