Oh, So That's Alice's Adventure in Wonderland

This last week I was able to read a couple of books due to them being shorter. I first read Arun Gandhi's The Gift of Anger. This was a wonderful book. I learned so much and finished feeling empowered to try and make a difference. Arun Gandhi is the grandson of Manilal Gandhi and the book is about the lessons that he learned from his grandfather. I feel like this book is one that will stick with me for a long time and I want to change my personal biases, my actions, and my perceptions to become a better citizen, parent, and person. This is a book I want my children to read and learn from and I think the world would be  better if the principles of acceptance and love taught were followed. It was also a good reminder to me that everyone is learning and growing and the more love one is shown, the more they'll want to do better. 

The other book I read this week was Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol. It's a super popular book that I had never read before. It was fun reading a book that has affected pop culture so much. I actually expected it to be a little weirder than it was. It was definitely different than other things I've read, but I think I've watched so many shows, movies, and played videogames with Alice that I was more than prepared for the more eccentric parts. I loved how Alice was written. The writing was witty and the character was interesting. There were also so many wonderful, outlandish characters I can see why so many people are enamored with the book. 

I just started reading The League of Gentlewomen Witches by India Holton yesterday so I'll go into it more next week. So far, it's a hilarious and fun feminist book that I've had a hard time putting down. 

Shin Megami Tensei V has continued to be such a fun game. I'm not sure how long the game is but I think I'm making pretty good progress. I've had to take it slow this week because our toddler has had a fever and needed a lot of love and attention. I've been pretty exhausted but I'm happy because it looks like he's starting to feel better.
