MostBadassHeroine

A super eclectic mix for #thebacksofwomen The Innkeeper's Song is apparently my book challenge ace in the hole. I've used it for #lovetoreread and #mostbadassheroine and now this. Versatile.

I have not read the other two, but Palimpsest is apparently about a sexually transmitted city, so that's cool.

AlaMich Um, say what? A "sexually transmitted city?" I haven't the slightest what that could mean. 7y

TobeyTheScavengerMonk @AlaMich Okay, from what I've gathered, after sex with a.... carrier, I guess would be the term... you gain memories of your time spent in the magical city of Palimpsest and a map of the city appears on your skin like a tattoo. Need to bump that one up on my TBR... 7y

AlaMich @TobeyTheScavengerMonk That sounds intriguing, to say the least 😉 7y

ItsAnotherJen Interesting! That sounds better than getting a disease at least! Lol 7y

readordierachel I got about halfway through Palimpsest and ended up putting it down for some reason I can't remember now. What I read was well written and strange and interesting. Always planned to pick it back up someday. 7y

EliNeedsMoreShelves Palimpsest is so weird and magical and strange. I am honestly not 100% sure I understood everything that happened in that book, but I'll never forget the mood it set. 7y

#riotgrams The #mostbadassheroine are those in whom their brains are a much more important part of their character than their looks, so I 💜Hermione, Nancy Drew, Lisbeth Salander & all the other badass chicks in literature!!!

Ms. Marvel Vol. 1: No Normal | G. Willow Wilson

Day 26 of #riotgrams - #mostbadassheroine! One of the most awesome, badass heroines around is Ms Marvel, the superhero alter-ego of Kamala Khan. (She's also the only character I've ever cosplayed.) I fell in love with Kamala when her run written by G. Willow Wilson started a few years ago. "Good is not a thing you are. It's a thing you do."

candyflossramparts I love Ms. Marvel! Good call! 🙌 7y

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo | Stieg Larsson

#riotgrams #mostbadassheroine still playing catch up - I had so many options for this one and I took a long time to decide but finally went with Lisbeth! It's hard to be more badass than her!
( Shout out to Hermione, Jessica Jones, Elizabeth Bennett , Scarlett, Lyra etc who were some of my many alternatives options for this category)

Rat Queens Vol. 1: Sass And Sorcery | Kurtis J Wiebe

I'm always posting about Tank Girl, Lisbeth Salander, et al, so I thought I'd go with Rat Queens for #mostbadassheroine. I can't pick which one I love the most though. #riotgrams

BekahB I love these comic books! They are truly badass. 💕 7y

LindsayReads YES! I change my mind every few pages trying to figure out who is my favorite. 7y

Bitch Planet Vol. 1: Extraordinary Machine | Kelly Sue DeConnick

Day 26 of #riotgrams is another good one! #mostbadassheroine
Clearly I love badass heroines that most people wouldn't even realize are such badasses.
#Meiko from #BitchPlanet and #Sophie from #Saga

CuriousG I literally sat frozen forever after I saw Meiko die - I still can't comprehend her not being there anymore. I'm holding out hope that somehow she's still the key to dismantling the Patriarchy. 7y
