"Her woman is shockingly conventional, yet to read this great travel writer’s account of transition is to understand the word “journey” truly."

Exploring the impact of trauma
I studied this in school, and it left a profound impact on me. The idea of mental health and the effect of trauma is explored in detail in this book. A woman begins to see a woman trapped in her yellow wallpaper, but is it a ghostly apparition or a manifestation of herself?

Like the title character itself, WONDER WOMAN brings a symbol of hope to the once-murky future of DCEU. Not to mention this is easily the most satisfying summer movie I've ever seen so far.

"I was stunned when I read this book in the 1976, and not just because it was the first book I read by an Asian American woman. Hong Kingston wraps family history around myth and discovers the ghosts of woman who have traveled through time into her own life. I felt those ghosts and went looking for mine."

I liked this movie and I'm very impressed that the lead woman filmed this movie and her stunts whilst pregnant in real life

Didn't realize when I started watching that this was the story of how Wonder Woman came to be so I was a little disapointed

Wonder Woman has long been a character for little girls to idolize, but Patty Jenkins’ smashing success grants a forceful push towards gender equilibrium in the superhero movie world. Gone are the fears that audiences will balk at a female-led fantasy.

Imagine a Mean Girl growing into a Mean Woman. Then, imagine this Mean Woman turning into a zombie. That's Amanda Feral. This book is hilarious, disgusting, and adorably snotty.
Amanda's friend goes missing so she teams up with her zombie friend Wendy to track her down. This book provides one of the, uh, most interesting depictions of burlesque I've ever read.
