Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie does a great job in explaining the fundamental point of feminism. While it is already known to those versed in such sociological aspects, it is a good start in learning about what it actually is.

I was more interested in her viewpoint of intersectional feminism which brings together the effects of race, class and gender on a person and their position in society. I hope that there will be more literature like this in the future.

The story just gets better and better and I loved this book even more than the first as it takes us further into the future as Catherine is now married to Peter and we witness more of her suffering. I was immediately swept away by the intrigue and romance. Well written plot with superbly developed characters that seem larger than life. I cannot wait to get ensnared in the third book. I highly recommend this author's books.

I like a good story and especially around this Subject of hacking but I felt really let down over this show. This could be down to the fact that it is possibly aimed at a certain Audience where you would need to have some Technological background to understand it. I would possibly give it another chance in the future.

Spider-Man is successfully integrated into the Marvel cinematic universe, teasing great future films and establishing an awesome first villain for Peter and giving him the normal high school struggles of a real teenager (0 more)
There is some frustration to be said about Spider-Man suit being too high tech and not solely created by Peter, but his webslingers and superstrength alone when his suit was taken is still redeeming for the film. (0 more)

The Program is a way to prevent teenage suicide which has become an epidemic. That is they way THEY sell it but is it really? Sloane and James do not believe it. Neither so the other teens. They have seen Returners and they are not the same, they are missing their memories.

Suzanne Young has created a compelling look into the future. The story keeps you wanting more. Luckily the sequel The Treatment is already out.

This is the first of Karin Slaughter's books that I've checked out. It was a free Friday selection on my Nook & I am glad I downloaded it. It was a satisying mystery. The ending left me wanting to know how Dr. Linton & Jeffery's story continues. They mysetery aspect was well written & not predictable, until very close to the end. All in all it was a worthwhile read & an author & series I will look for in the future.

In today's society, it's refreshing to read about a girl who actually wants to make something of herself and break barriers along the way. So even though the book couldn't hold my attention for about the first seventy pages, once it hit that seventy-first page, the story zoomed along from there and I ended up thoroughly enjoying it. Granny Weatherwax was a force to behold, can't wait to meet up with her in the future.
