Been waiting on this for MONTHS and there will be no sleep this weekend 😍🌻📖🦾

She is so brilliant. And sassy. And strong. And is probably one of my new heroes.

DisneyFan I‘m so excited to start this today too! 2y
MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @DisneyFan yay!! Happy reading! 📖☕️🔭 If you find ideas that excite you through the passages, please be welcome to share 🙌 (edited) 2y
DisneyFan @MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward Finished 46% according to GoodReads and enjoying it immensely so far. It‘s a lot to absorb and digest, but so far, it‘s been interesting. (edited) 2y
MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @DisneyFan I was completely unable to finish this within a weekend! There was so much to reflect on, I had to take time to just absorb between chapters, sometimes between sentences. Such an amazing book, now I understand why (and am 5x happier) this had such a long waitlist at the library. (I purchased a copy after waiting 6months on the “hold” list- couldn‘t wait any more hahaha) 2y

Pickpick

This is such a beautiful and wonderful book. This is such an important book because the rampant sexism, racism, homophobia within her field is just as rampant in many other academic fields. Prescod-Weinstein is brave and brilliant, she gets into good trouble, and wants every child to have the same opportunities to dream. I couldn‘t stop listening, then there was this beautiful letter to her mother and it was all over. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics I really hope she gets a chance to write more books, because I will absolutely read them all. #ChandaPrescodWeinstein #TheDisorderedCosmos #PrideMonth #LGBTQ 2y
GingerAntics This book also tied in well with #ThisLife in its critique of capitalism‘s sexiest, racist agenda. 2y
Graywacke Cool. Nice review 2y

Nutmegnc “Good trouble”. Love it!! I‘m glad you enjoyed it!! 2y
GingerAntics @Nutmegnc she did a wonderful job of weaving so much together so seamlessly. 2y
Nutmegnc @GingerAntics Can you imagine what a conversation with them would be like?! 😱 this is officially my selection for “if you could invite one person to lunch, living or dead, who would it be?” 2y
GingerAntics @Nutmegnc YES!!! That would be awesome!!! 2y

I love astrophysics, and this seems to fit with so many important issues right now as well. This is my next pride month read.

Graywacke Appealing title! 2y
GingerAntics @Graywacke it‘s a great little book. It‘s mostly about science but she‘s weaved racism and sexism into tit quite well. 2y
