June 24th, 2019 || BOOK REVIEW: Three Women by Lisa Taddeo is one of the most fascinating and compelling books I’ve read so far this year. We follow the real stories of Lina, Maggie and Sloane. . Lina is a woman who feels as if she has no purpose in life. Like she’s just a wife and a mother. But she’s trapped in an unhappy marriage. Her husband won’t touch her, and she longs to be touched, she longs to be desired. She’s desperate and unhappy and then she starts having an affair, where finally her needs are met. Lina’s story is a familiar one. A woman who has put aside her needs and feels alone and lost. . Maggie’s story is the one that made my blood boiled the most. She’s taken her high-school teacher to court. During the narrative she accounts how they started their relationship and how it ended. We are witness to the manipulation this man exerted. When the trail comes we see how she is blamed for everything, for the relationship and for trying to destroy “this poor man’s life”… rings a bell? It was very upsetting to read. The toll this ordeal takes on Maggie is enormous and reading how this teacher abused his power and destroyed her life was absolutely disgusting. . Finally, there is Sloane who is the talk of town because rumor has it that she has sex with other men while her husband watches. Sloane’s story, in my opinion, is much more nuanced that the rest. All these stories have many layers but Sloane’s is the one that takes the longer to unravel. Deep down, she is someone who doesn’t know who she is. . I was completely immersed in this book. Taddeo writing pulls you in. Three Women is a fantastic portrayal of female desire, an honest and perceptive narrative that won’t leave anyone indifferent. . Is this on your radar? Would you like to read it? 🌻 . Thank you so much to Hannah at @bloomsburypublishing for sending a review copy my way! • • • #nonfictionbooks #threewomen #lisataddeo #newbookrelease #adayinbooklandreviews #recentreads #leoyrecomiendo #feministbooks #booksoutside #booksandnature #bookstagramuk https://www.instagram.com/p/BzFtza5Ak_c/?igshid=1u3ljxoi5rw78

✨Review✨ Animal by Lisa Taddeo . SPOILERS . Ok, but hear me out 🙃😓 . I just finished reading this book and I has HYPED about it when I was starting but omg was I expecting more. I was truly and sadly disappointed by it. First, the good bits: I thought Lisa Taddeo’s writing style was beautiful and the main character was fascinating and complex, so you get a good insight on this woman’s head who is both empathic and ruthless. Now, I also felt like some of the lines were just trying to hard to be scandalous with shocking descriptions of abuse, miscarriage and offensive dialogue, but with very minimal purpose assigned to these events and descriptions, some paragraphs or even whole scenes could have been cut off without affecting the storyline which was also VERY slow for the first 250pages. Even though it was not my cup of tea I feel like I would read more of Taddeo’s work, I think she makes interesting points and as I said: beautiful writing. . I know it’s a very popular book so I would love to know your thoughts if you read it!! . #bookworm #lisataddeo #bookreview #bookrecommendations #bookrecommendation #bookrecs #bookblog #bookstagram #booktok #bookish #books #booksbooksbooks #booksandcoffee #girlswhoread #girlybook #femaleprotagonist #girlpower #book #bookcover #bookcommunity #bibliophile #literature #animal #booklover #booknerd #girl #beautifulbooks #bookphotography #potd #picoftheday (at Madrid, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnSFxoCtsYZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Despite the wonky photo, this was a great collection of stories from a writer whose style I’m appreciating more and more. #ghostlover #lisataddeo #igreads #instabooks #shortstories @nypl https://www.instagram.com/p/ClhFFVbvPJJULUS8bF1OzfyL5id89AlpLvJGOI0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

{ 20 décembre ❄️ Happy Sunday ! Only four more days before Christmas! Granted this year will be a little sad because we spend it far from family but I'm still excited to be able to Skype with them and have a cozy Christmas with my hubby 💙 since school has finished I've been able to read a bit more. I finished another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson this morning which I enjoyed you can see my review on my Goodreads account. I have also started Three Women by Lisa Taddeo on audiobook. I've heard mixed reviews about this book but I was very intrigued and decided to pick it up. I want to have my own opinion on it and the subject of the book is something I haven't read about before. If you have read it, let me know in the comments if you enjoyed it or if you disliked it? 💬 I hope you all had a great weekend and be safe!} • • • #bookblog #livrestagram #threewomen #nonfiction #lisataddeo #bookishcanadians #audiobooklove (à Rimouski, Quebec) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJBilaMAbcx/?igshid=30w2o7193hk6
