I
posted a picture book on this subject back in 2019 so when I saw My
Own Words, by Ruth Baker Ginsberg I decided I needed to read it,
too. It was amazing! She is a wise and witty author and I quite her
enjoyed her insights (and opinions) on the law in opera, supreme
court wives, her husband's cooking and so on. I'll admit I skimmed a
bit on the chapters on the Supreme Court and how it functions, but
everything else was of great interest. ;-)
Longer
ago than I care to admit Constant Reader suggested the book Lady
Killers: Deadly Women Throughout History,
by Tori Telfer and I am just now getting around to reading it. It
was excellent! Grim, yes, given the subject, but nicely researched
and written with a touch a dark humor (the author freely admits to a
rather bizarre sense of humor). There have been more female serial
killers than you might think, and the author has suggestions as to
why we continue to be surprised they actually exist.
