The Notorious RBG

              

        I had written this review a week before Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, I would like to express what a brilliant mind she was and how much she will be missed. I would also like to slightly recap her life. 

    RUTH BADER GINSBURG

I couldn't believe the TV screen “RBG dead at 87” The powerful female was a brilliant leader and it was hard to grasp her death. She was more that a refined inspiration, more than a flashy feminist, more than a supreme court superhero, she was a loving & caring mother, a loving & caring wife, a loving & caring woman. For her memory, I have put a summary to her life of hardship, struggle and success.

RBG was respected and adored, but also loved and humored! I can see a lot of babies dressing up as RBG, and a TON of memes about her, illustrious drawings, poetry and such subtle but gorgeous reminders of her positivity. RBG’s has such strong personality, winsome words and a disciplined mindset. 

RBG worked to make both genders equal, she fought for cases such as equal pay. In this modern day the very thought of the same job but different gender with less pay is DISGUSTING. We're lucky for balance because she persisted. Another case she fought for is justice for immigrant children. If the child has legal documentation but the parent(s) do not what more can the child do? It's quite unsettling for the child to be deported over something they have no control of. Luckily, she persisted.

    RBG was very smart in school. She bonded and fell in love with her friend. They married and had some lovely kids. RBG’s determination is touching, no matter how difficult work was. She always made sure to sit down with her kids for family time during dinner. 

Her biography which I recently read puts a spotlight on her talent and truly is fantastic. It highlights what RBG can do. New readers, adults and kids both should read this book because it describes RBG’s life, and it sets an example of what we can do if we believe in ourselves!

    Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a feminist, supreme court lawyer, faithful wife, and loving mother. Most of all, she is an inspiration to young men and women everywhere. 

The War That Saved my life

The War that Saved My Life a book by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley is a historical fiction I came across as a book from the library. For a long time I ignored it thinking it’s another boring story for adults. When I opened it and finally started reading I was right next to Ada.

The story line was beautiful, about a girl with a crippled leg who sneaks out with her younger brother to find shelter from their cruel mom and from the war. In their search for safety they find love and comfort in a blond and brooding lady named Susan. 

I loved the story because there is so much drama! It shows pain and sadness, it shows love and prosperity, it shows courage and battle! It has all the power points of an amazing story. It shows beautiful writing that brought me to read it again and again! 

The setting takes place during World War Two. Cold, dusty, gossiping road travels by poor Ada’s window. I feel her sadness and enclosure. Like an animal behind bars. I can hear the horrific thud of their mom hurting Jamie. I can feel the torrid heat blasted by the bomb. I can feel the love and safety Ada and Jamie have within each other and Susan. 

The War That Saved My Life, is an amazing book that is heartfelt and truthful. The sweetest, most intense historical fiction that will bring immense joy, freedom and hope to a reader’s mind.
