I was wondering how you were going to incorporate medieval books into this challenge. :)
Looking forward to your thoughts and reviews.

I think I noticed this the most acutely in my life when I was breastfeeding my children. I was amazed that feeding a child could be so controversial, just because the feeding was taking place at a mother’s breast.

I am, as well. There are so many great books out there, so many great women, so many great voices. Thanks so much for adding yours to the mix!

Personally, I hated it, but I was expecting something lighter.

I definitely agree with you about women being sexualized. Not that being sexual is bad thing, but when all you are is a walking baby machine, I take issue. :P

Very thoughtful. I’m also really glad to see so many people signing up for this challenge :)

I think speaking up is just one part of being a feminist – sometimes our actions speak just as loud as words.

My list is way too long, and I just pulled stuff from my shelves – I think I could do this challenge every year and still find something to read!

It is not being helped by all the lists that are circulating. There are so many books that I want to read off of all of them!

I’m probably joining this as well.
