"Saint, Michalski and Adelmann share a certain feminist outlook in these three literary retellings. And while their perspectives vary, they all focus more on how women learn to live their lives rather than on the wrongs they have endured." washingtonpost.com/books/2022/05/…

Please join me for my book launch! I am super excited for these conversations with authors whose work I love. Link in bio to register (free)!

This copaganda article is awesome! It starts with imagining that The Purge and Training Day exist in the same cinematic universe.
