These are both really interesting books from a Feminist perspective. I don't know that I would call the protagonists "Feminist role models" exactly, but both books deal with women's roles in unique and thought-provoking ways. <br /><br />Also, regarding The Madman's Daughter, one of my coworkers was in writer's group with the author, so we are all SUPER excited about this book. Isn't it just stupendous?Hannahlilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322474845421670267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7028388758618333625.post-814423478215438752013-01-19T20:32:46.254-05:002013-01-19T20:32:46.254-05:00Thanks for letting me know about this giveaway!

DO read it, though!

I love the old gothic standalone greats, like <i>Mary Stewart</i> but am a fan of current series too, especially paranormal.<br /><br />Good luck on <b>Jodi</b> & everyone composing books (I'm on my first try but excited)! A monthly summary is a great idea <b>Bailey</b>. The best outcome of these events is meeting people in common and adopting other authors; including oldies that shouldn't be missed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7028388758618333625.post-29399706752993118012013-01-19T13:30:42.096-05:002013-01-19T13:30:42.096-05:00Hello!

It is different reading it at my age. I felt it more in my bones and less in my attitude, if that makes any sense. Love this challenge...making me think a lot as I edit my novella, Violet.

My first review was of The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making, and I'll be starting the second one this weekend (I intended to start it earlier, but I got caught up in a few other books and a ridiculously busy work week). <br /><br />I also just finished reading Bitchfest, which is a collection of articles from 10 years' worth of Bitch magazine, something I intend to review soon as well. <br /><br />One suggestion I had that you may have already done or planned to do would be to post a monthly round-up of all the books people have read for the challenge so far, with links to their post. I'd love to be able to see what other people are reading and cross-link to their reviews as well!baileythebookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17374513173496945550noreply@blogger.com
