"If Ephron has a lasting legacy... it’s this: she showed how we can fall in and out of love with people based solely on the words that they speak and write... words are so important that you can fall for your enemy just because he knows how to use them." https://t.co/b1NOdLaP3u

It’s not everyday you meet your cousin for the first time, but thanks to @Ancestry (+ my mom’s sleuthing) I did. And it turns out my cousin writes novels. And the latest is about our shared ancestors who were Latvian Jews in WWII. 💙 Thank you for writing this @Shelly_Sanders 💙

Happy Birthday #MaryWollstonecraft! Celebrated with 24 hours in Bath following in her (and her daughter Mary Shelley’s) footsteps and buying too many books about her at @ToppingsBath. Exactly as it should be 🤓 “The beginning is always today…”
