For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years - all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.

Hello! I looked into my brain and found a book. Here it is. Inside you will find: the smell of honeysuckle; heartbreak; a French-kissing rabbit; a haunted house; death; a vagina singing sad, old songs; young geraniums in an ancient castle; birth; a dog who appears in dreams as a spiritual guide; divorce; electromagnetic energy fields; emotional horniness; the ghost of a sea captain; and more. I hope you enjoy these little weirds. Love, Jenny Slate.

Story5 out of 5 stars 303
Today's feminist movement has a glaring blind spot, and paradoxically, it is women. Mainstream feminists rarely talk about meeting basic needs as a feminist issue, argues Mikki Kendall, but food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. All too often, however, the focus is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few. That feminists refuse to prioritize these issues has only exacerbated the age-old problem of both internecine discord and women who rebuff at carrying the title.

One afternoon - after another failed attempt to get motivated to exercise - I (accidentally) started my first mini habit. I initially committed to do one push-up, and it turned into a full workout. I was shocked. This "stupid idea" wasn't supposed to work. I was shocked again when my success with this strategy continued for months (and to this day). I had to consider that maybe I wasn't the problem in those 10 years of mediocre results. Maybe it was my prior strategies that were ineffective, despite being oft-repeated as "the way to change" in countless books.

In the year 2018, it seems as if women’s anger has suddenly erupted into the public conversation. But long before this, women’s anger was not only politically catalytic - but politically problematic. With eloquence and fervor, Rebecca tracks the history of female anger as political fuel - from suffragettes chaining themselves to the White House to office workers vacating their buildings after Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the Supreme Court. She deconstructs society’s (and the media’s) condemnation of female emotion (notably, rage) and the impact of resulting repercussions.

Burnout. Many women in America have experienced it. What’s expected of women and what it’s really like to be a woman in today’s world are two very different things - and women exhaust themselves trying to close the gap between them. Sisters Emily Nagoski, PhD, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, are here to help end the cycle of feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Instead of asking us to ignore the very real obstacles and societal pressures that stand between women and well-being, they explain with compassion and optimism what we’re up against - and teach us how to fight back.

Loved it! It's the kinda book that you keep and share with your bff or even your daughter when the time is right. But one thing is for sure. I will be buying a hard cover copy for my collection. Her way with words and sharing with us her life experiences, which in reality is pretty much a lot shit we all can definitely relate to, was just what I needed to hear. All I can say to anyone reading this is; Read it! You'll be able to relate to 1 or 2 things, or maybe 75% of it... Love, love, love, loved it!

A brave, honest, funny and smart book very woman needs to read. Finally, straight talk from someone who's lived it and not afraid to tell the tale.
