Becoming a Matriarch | Helen Knott

Hello #She Said!

I know a few of us have had issues getting ahold of this book in the US…not sure why it‘s available in Canada, England, Australia, but not on the US. I got her first book just fine…BUT I do not like being told I can NOT read something. It makes me want to read it more.

I know it is price-prohibitive for us all to order it from overseas, so I have a suggestion. Let me tag everyone & let you know what I‘m thinking in the comments.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Litsy has had a few book clubs over time, but maybe we can borrow a page (idea) from the Litsy Postal Mark Up Book Club. I‘ll order the book from afar, read it, and then mail it onto the next that wants it… if we want to follow the book mark up model, we can write a few comments in the end or margins as we go…and pass to the next. If you are interested, there will be a link in the next post for your email & mailing address. I‘ll mail to ⤵️ 1mo
Riveted_Reader_Melissa ↪️ the next. And use the emails to send you the next address to mail to when you are finished. 1mo
vlwelser I ❤ you and I love this idea but I'm going to pass on this one. Her first book was excellent but this seems like a lot. 1mo
JenlovesJT47 You can download it onto your kindle app or iBooks app! ⬆️ 1mo
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JenlovesJT47 What is this magic ? 1mo
JenlovesJT47 Anna‘s Archive is something I stumbled across when I was looking for Sweet Valley books. It is the world‘s largest open library and everything is free. If you want to donate money to them you can and you will get faster downloads but the most you would have to wait to download is 10 minutes which keeps it free for everyone. I love this site because it is great for hard to find, out of print/expensive books. You can download books right to your 1mo
JenlovesJT47 Phone! It‘s been a lifesaver for me because I‘m low on funds at the moment. 1mo
DGRachel Just FYI, there seems to be some questions around copyright infringement/piracy related to Anna‘s Archive. Something to consider. While this memoir looks amazing, I‘ll be sitting this one out, too. 1mo
Bookwormjillk Thanks for this! I couldn‘t find it and am really interested. 1mo
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @DGRachel like I said, I‘m willing to mail my copy on to another interested in reading it after me. Just use the link to drop your mailing information 1mo
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @DGRachel I was afraid of that with sites that I do not know. 1mo
JenlovesJT47 I understand if you feel that way, it‘s a personal choice 100%. I have used it for about 3 months now and haven‘t had any problems with it. 🙃 1mo
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser When life throws us curve balls, adapt is usually my first go too…how can we make this work anyway 😉. 3w
vlwelser I think I looked at my schedule and used this as an excuse to do 1 less thing this month. I hope you all are enjoying the book, though. 3w

🧵 Collection of 11 shorts stories, focuses on alcoholism, discrimination, gender inequality etc. Writing style of Sudha Murty is something which can make ordinary stories EXTRAORDINARY. 🧵

🎭 THE SILENT PATIENT🎭
by Alex Michaelides

Five fatal gunshots.
Six years of silence.
What are her first words?

This book is a psychological thriller in which a lady, Alicia shoots her husband, after six years of marriage and then goes silent for the next six years.

Everything about the plot, language, and climax worked well for me.

🌸IT ENDS WITH US🌸
By Colleen Hoover
I am so glad I read this book.
I didn't think I could feel so much all at once, I was angry, sad, cheerful, frustrated, heartbroken, hopeful and what not.
This book delivers so much... Friendship, love story, parenting, domestic violence and difficult relationships.

Pulp | Charles Bukowski
post image
Pickpick

PULP is the last completed novel by Charles Bukowski that was published in 1994 just before his death. Bukowski knew he was dying while writing this, and the book does have a reflective, existential edge. The dedication says "Dedicated to bad writing"
After reading this I only wish he was still alive, I'd love to get drunk with him.
