Dominique Marie (7 KP) rated Women Who Run with the Wolves: Contacting the Power of the Wild Woman in Books

Nov 28, 2018 (Updated Nov 28, 2018)

This book was very interesting. You don't have to buy into the whole Jungian interpretations to enjoy it. Some of it resonated with me, and some of it didn't, but, as a literature major, I found it fascinating, and I loved the myths/stories alone. I gave it four stars because it was too repetitive at times for my liking.

This is a beautiful cloth-bound copy of The Call of the Wild and White Fang. I received a copy of this book from Goodreads Giveaways. I love it! It is even nicer than it looks online, and the paper even feels nice and "fancy". These are two of favorite stories, and I love that they are included in one volume.

Got into the chorus of two local musicals only to discover it's "pay-to-play" theatre. My friend had to pay her membership fee in installments. So that's out. Nice to be selected though.
In other news, my 12-year-old gets her tonsils out on Friday. Does anyone have positive stories about minor surgeries? Anything to assuage the anxiety would be helpful...

My middle daughter, Claire, had her tonsils out when she was 15. Best decision we ever made. She was getting strep throat monthly it seemed, so it was the best solution for us.

She was out for a good week afterwards, but is now as sassy as ever at 19. It will be all right.

I was pleasantly surprised by this series and hope to see a continuation of it. It was constantly intense and unexpected. Even in the moments of supposed calm, there is a palpable tension in every action taken by the characters. The way it follows the different characters on their journey through the horror and how their stories link together was really interesting.

I read this book when I was about 12 and I absolutely loved it. As an avid reader who loves fantasy stories, what gets better than a tale about a girl who can read characters out of their books?! The book is imaginative and creative. I fell in love with the main character quickly and loved the complexities of the story.

Movie Rating Watch

I really enjoyed this film from beginning to end yes some bits were far fetched but it was fast paced and easy to watch the car chases are well thought out and yes impossible but just enjoy it (1 more)

I think that one of the good things about this film is that there are multiple stories going on that all merge together as one
