Loved this thoughtful depiction of Hilma as an intelligent, spiritual, resilient artist who was a pioneer of her field. Also appreciated the tidbits about different areas of science and art that related to her work, ie. atomic particles, alchemy, theosophy, etc. She's an icon, she's a legend, and she will always be the moment.

I LOVED this book! It turned out to be a page-turning mix of humor, mystery, strong women taking down the patriarchy, and connection to my own culture. The heart of the novel is truly the ensemble cast of Punjabi women who congregate within Nikki's classes. Their courage in telling their stories emboldens more of the community to begin living in their truth. Pretty badass, I'd say!

One of the most unique books I've ever read, one to be savored and felt at your core. Narrated by Death himself, The Book Thief offers a beautiful/heartbreaking picture of a German family's life during the Holocaust. If you adore exquisite figurative language and/or historical fiction from a child's perspective, this will not disappoint!!
