Wilmette Public Library discussion

Tell everyone what you've been reading! At the Library, we're reading, "The Good Girls Revolt: How the Women of Newsweek Sued their Bosses and Changed the Workplace" and "I Am Malala" by Malala Yousafzai for our Monday night book club.

She Walks in Beauty: A Woman's Journey Through Poems edited by
Caroline Kennedy

Caroline Kennedy has exquisite taste in poetry, and she picks memorable poems, depicting powerful life events we all face in our lives. Whether it's falling in love, breaking up, friendship, marriage, motherhood, or growing old, understanding and appreciation of what it means to be a woman is beautifully explored in these poems.

Besides "Good Girls Revolt" for the Monday night book club, I just finished "The Forest Lover" by Susan Vreeland, which was recommended to me by a friend. It's definitely what I would call a "book club book." Somewhat softer in overall tone, a lot of discussion points about women in the early 20th century, Native Americans, class, etc. A solid read; great book all around but not for those who like a little edge.
