Today is #InternationalWomensDay I learned that the minds behind the personality test Myers-Briggs are #women! That shows how the world has evolved to condition us to mostly think of men behind these commonly used accomplishments. Let’s break through these barriers!
I was curious to read a horror novel, which I do not normally read. I chose The Shining by @StephenKing. I was genuinely scared, stressed and anxious. The power of the written word! #thrillingreads
Earlier this week, I had a really bad day at the office. In the eve, my 11 year old offered to pour a glass of wine for me. Should I be worried or proud? #parenthood#raisingkids#workingmom
In the last two days I visited the places of my childhood, the March house (watched @LittleWomen) and Green Gables (watched @AnneWithAnE). It was heartwarming to find my old friends welcoming me with open arms #memories#friends#nostalgia#Literature
The last book of 2019, The Mysterious Affair at Styles by @agathachristie introduces the famous detective, Poirot and his not so bright sidekick, Hastings. No matter how hard I try, I can never figure out who the murder is, which is why I always keep coming back #funreads
In 10 years, I became a mother for the 2nd time, changed companies and jobs, found happiness in what I do, read over 300 books, battled and conquered anxiety, strengthen and formed new friendships and visited a new place ever year #DecadeChallenge
A Lupita le gustaba planchar de Laura Esquivel es una novela corta narrada por Lupita, un personaje con muchos defectos y debilidades pero con fuerza para defender lo correcto. Ella nos introduce a un Mexico lleno de música, sabores, corrupción y una realidad burda. #buenlibro
I truly enjoyed the #whodunnit and #humanity combination of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by @stu_turton. I especially like the variety of perspectives and personalities through which the same story is told. #greatreads
I highly recommend spending time with Allan Karlsson from The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by @jonasjonasson. You will go back in time, travel around the world and find yourself in the most absurd and funny situations. #feelgoodreads
Me, a Canadian, walking the streets of London, on Nov 20, while reading The Gown by @AuthorJenniferR, it just doesn’t get more perfect. It allowed me to feel and imagine the before story while understanding the after perspective #feelgoodreads
During yesterday’s Remembrance Day, I recalled the all those who fought for our freedoms and those who tirelessly ensured all of our cultural treasures are preserved. Read Monuments Men by Robert M. Edsel. #LestWeForget
Started reading The Age of Light by @wscharer thinking it was all fiction. Little did I know but much did I learn about photography, the Belle Époque in Paris and the tension between the sexes when both are artists #interestingreads
Sometimes it’s the memory of an amazing book that leads you to read another one from the same author only to be disappointed. Such is the case of La Templanza by @MDuenasOficial. I liked the Mexican references, the book is well written, but there was something missing. #okreads
