If your not reading her books you should be....

So on this day during Women's History Month I want to talk about one of my favorite Word Nerds (that all of you need to be reading), Susan Ee. Susan is the author of the Angelfall Trilogy. A group of YA dystopian novels that revolve around the Archangel Raphael and a teenage girl name Penryn. I was absolutely addicted to this series. I actually finished the last two books last month! I am posting about Susan because her character Penryn is one of the best developed YA characters I have read in sometime. For more information Susan Ee and her books visit www.susanee.com

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from the Angelfall series:

The Wisest Woman you will ever read....Dr. Maya Angelou


On International Women's Day what better woman to celebrate then the author, Dr. Maya Angelou. After all, she penned the poem "Phenomenal Woman". Dr. Angelou was a fierce writer, and a civil rights activist. She is one woman, whose grace and wisdom always seemed to shine through her works. I deeply admire Dr. Angelou. She is the author of several collections of poems and the novel, I know why the caged Bird sings! 
 
Here are some of the Quotes I love by Dr. Maya Angelou

Celebrating Women's History Month; one diverse author at a time! Day One....


Women's History Month gives us a chance to celebrate powerful women and girls that have made writing, speaking, and educating their purpose. Today I lift up Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, best selling Nigerian author, she is the author of Purple Hibiscus, Half the Yellow Sun and Americanah. Her stories always follow strong women as they make their way on the world. She also is featured in the Song Flawless by Beyonce. She is also a devout feminism who wishes to make the term inclusive to all women.
