Wow. The main theme of this book, women empowerment, is unquestionably superb. From Queen Hatsheput to her only daughter, Neferura, to the mysterious wisewoman to the female supporting characters, I have no words to say than, way to go girls! Their dynamics, they way they asserted themselves in a patriarchal world feels refreshing, did not feel forced, and did not give me the feeling that “bohohohohoh… these girls are a bunch of morally superior wokes that talk about feminism on Twitter all day.” I am glad that this was not the case with this book. Please note that I picked…

Unfortunately, that is the main weakness of the book. There were so many leading characters, seven of them, to know but so little page time.

Lifely Updates #24

Hey, y’all! Oh… Oh… Oh…it’s meeeee… And I’m not saying that I am really back for good but I’ll try my best updating this blog as regularly as I could. As you might have noticed, my presence on this blog in 2023 was almost nil because life is always like that. I don’t know if I had mentioned it in one of my previous posts but being consistent with my hobbies is not really my strength. Most of my hobbies actually rely on my mood at a certain period. If I feel like I don’t want to write, I wouldn’t…
