Love the quote that @tulika29 sites from PERSEPOLIS: "Once again I arrived at my usual conclusion, one must educate oneself." Thanks for tagging us! We're huge fans of #MarjaneStarapi and think this witty graphic novel is required reading for sure. Has anyone seen the movie version? #thereadingwomen //// #graphicnovel #readwit #womenintranslationmonth #amreading #bookworm #bookreview #igbooks #bookishpost #witmonth #weneeddiversebooks

This book has been on my TBR for ages. Is an interesting story that follows three generations of polar bear circus performers. It's told in three parts and from three different perspectives. I'm not sure what I expected, but it was fascinating and really made me think about the ethics of animal performances. At the same time, I absolutely fell in love with the polar bears.

I've wanted to read this book for years and finally prioritized it for #WITmonth. It's the story of Highway, the self-proclaimed "world's best auctioneer" and how he came into possession of a fine collection of false teeth. But it's oh so much more than that. It's a story about the stories we tell about ourselves. Highly recommend it. And read the epilogue!!

Mia is in 5th grade, spoiled, and selfish. In contrast, a girl known just as "The Child" lives a life of loneliness and heartache. One day The Child sneaks into her 5th grade classroom and writes secret and violent things in each of her classmates journals. From there unravels a series of events that quickly deteriorates into unpredictable violence. ⠀ ⠀ I didn't know what to expect when I started THE IMPOSSIBLE FAIRY TALE, but I'd read elsewhere that the story was experimental, dark, and artistic. While this story is all of these things, I didn't anticipate the novel's emotional depth. While its the nontraditional style may not be for everyone, THE IMPOSSIBLE FAIRY TALE is an enriching experience in a different kind of fiction. It's a novel that asks you to slow down and read every word because each detail is important. - K⠀ ⠀ You can hear more thoughts on the IMPOSSIBLE FAIRY TALE in our latest episode.⠀ #thereadingwomen⠀ //// #theimpossiblefairytale #womenintranslation #witmonth #womenintranslationmonth #readmore #bookreview #amreading #bookstagramfeature #women_writers #readwomen2017 #readersofinstagram
