I'm going to read this soon. For a nervousness.org LMAO, more info here. It's only about 200 pages, I'll read it this weekend and send it on Monday :o)

I, indeed, read and loved this book. It was as good as I've always heard it was.

Received by cerebrate in Washington.

What a discovery this book was! Beautiful, descriptive, spare yet lushly sensuous. Kate Chopin manages to convey so much with such discreet detail. It's an intense and captivating story of one woman's blossoming self-knowledge and the emergence of her authentic self. I loved it, and will recommend it to many. This is being released to Bluestocking86.

I read this book for the first time as part of a college Freshman Seminar class. I really enjoyed it then and I enjoyed it this time. This book is part of http://nervousness.org/lmao/index.cgi?id=6254 and will be heading out to California.

This is one of my all-time favorites, and I've released copies of it too....glad to read it again, and I'm passing it along.

I really liked this book. There were pages that took me to places I have daydreamed of before (the big white fluffy four poster bed, my own "little" home). Edna reminded me so much of me....her awakening was inspiring and beautiful. It is sad to think it was thought of as "scandalous" when this book was first written. I loved the strength of her character and her whims. And yes it was a book that made me sad at the end. I am now passing this on in the Nervousness.org ring.
