Malala Yousafzai recommended The Breadwinner in Books (curated)

Book Favorite

The book tells the story of a young girl who takes on the challenge of saving her family. I think it’s important for girls everywhere to learn how women are treated in some societies. But even though Parvana is treated as lesser than boys and men, she never feels that way. She believes in herself and is stronger to fight against hunger, fear and war. Girls like her are an inspiration. The Breadwinner reminds us how courageous and strong women are around the world.

Reading a Maeve Binchy book is so comforting. Like outside a cafe drinking strong coffee people-watching. This collection of stories is packed with insightful glimpses into people, women particularly and what makes them tick. There is often a thread running through the stories about wisdom and folly. Sometimes the stories got a little repetitive, but a sweet read.

"I first read this in school as a teenager where everyone in class had to read out three paragraphs and then it moved on to the next student. The experience always stuck with me, as did the Brontë sisters — strong women of that time who had to hide behind a pseudonym. I always love their words."

K.C. Luck uses her amazing talent to continue the story of strong women surviving after the world as they know it crumbles. She does an amazing job destroying a world in a scarily realistic way. Truthfully though it is the characters that make this story. They all bring something to the table and will do anything to protect what they care about.
