A Room of One's Own
"A Room of One's Own" by Virginia Woolf explores the world of female novelists, emphasizing the importance of financial independence and personal space for women to freely express their ideas.
I personally enjoyed a lot her reflexions about both sexes, and how she talks diferently about men and women, and their diferent grade of dificulties in order to make themselves a name in the novelism world.
I also liked a lot her references to some of the most famous and important female autors, with whom without their work and constant dedication, we, women, woudn't be where we are now in the literary world.
I give it 4 stars, because there were moments of confusion and deviation from the main topic, making it challenging to follow at times, although I think we can blame It on the writing style from back then.
Nevertheless, it's a book with valuable reflections that every women should read at least once in their life.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
HE WAS PROUD AND SHE PREJUDICED HIM!!
Pride and prejudice is a classic novel written by Jane Austen and published in 1813. It explores themes of love, social class, and morality through the complex relationship between Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy.
"You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you."
This book beautifully encapsulates the novel's exploration of love and admiration, highlighting that a lasting connection goes beyond mere attraction. Loving someone is essential in a relationship, but it is the mutual admiration and the capacity of learning from one another that makes it last.
Beyond the love story, the book features compelling plot twists that add depth and intrigue to the narrative. This Jane Austen book goes beyond the romantic theme. It's not just their loves story what's going on here. There's so much more!
It is a classic, but what a classic, it has aged like a fine wine! Jane austen really said "the kind of man every girl wants is the one who accepts their mistakes and is capable of leaving the pride behind", and it is something that is as relevant today as it was in the 19th century.
Jane Austen, thank you for this masterpiece!

To express your feelings freely, without hiding who you really are, must be the most liberating thing in the world.

Vita & Virginia (2018)
Yesterday, I rewatched 'Vita & Virginia,' and I must say, I didn't remember loving it so much the first time.
The film beautifully portrays the passionate and forbidden love story between two of the greatest female writers of their time, Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West.
It's a must-watch, whether you're a fan of these two remarkable women or not.

I just hate finishing a book in the morning because I can not start a book right away, I just feel like I need the rest of the day to grieve it.
When I finish a book at night, I can lay in my bed, stare at the ceiling, and think about it until I fall asleep (if I'm actually able to sleep afterwards).
