...I was just excited because the cover is a giant middle finger and I absolutely love to hate on Lean In.
Lean Out
Wolf Whistle Politics
My husband presented me with Wolf Whistle Politics and said, “This looked interesting. I thought you’d like it and that it would make you mad.” What can I say? The man knows me.
Hidden Figures – Book/Movie Comparison
I watched the movie first. I know, I know - “ALWAYS read the book before you watch the movie!” And that is a good rule of thumb most of the time. But I love the actresses in Hidden Figures and the story looked awesome and I didn’t have time to read the book yet. (Yes, I know. “Excuses, excuses...”) SO, I watched the movie first. You know what? It made me want to read the book.
Floreat Queenie
It’s pretty obvious where we heard about Floreat Queenie since we posted a review of Queenie’s Teapot last month. This is the second book in The Queenie Chronicles by Carolyn Steele.
We thought this would be the perfect time to review Floreat Queenie because it starts off right at Christmas. The chaos of the past year is seemingly subsiding, when Queenie accidentally manufactures some political drama by swearing during her televised Christmas announcement. This is then used by some shady characters with political motives to mobilize religious zealots into protesting the government.

Queenie’s Teapot
I was recommended Queenie’s Teapot by my friend Deana, whose mother-in-law happens to be the author. She told me, “You will love this book so much!” and she was right. I bought Bethany a copy for Christmas and have also gifted a copy to my mom, who I knew would love it as well.
