ENOUGH
Seriously, Stop Calling Kids ‘Daddy’s Girl’ And ‘Mama’s Boy’ ([link removed])

“The first time my daughter was called a daddy’s girl I nearly screamed,” writes Shanetta McDonald today. “She was five months old, so I was barely out of my fourth trimester and still in the thick of adjusting to motherhood. The offender was a friend of a friend. I can’t even remember why he made the flippant comment, but I’ll never forget it: ‘You know, she’ll probably be a daddy's girl,’ he said. ‘All girls are daddy’s girls.’ I was livid.”

And who can blame her? At the link, she’s making her case against the term. It’s pretty persuasive!

April Book Club Announcement: VenCo by Cherie Dimaline ([link removed])

Forget Christmas in July, it’s time for Halloween in April! This month’s book is about a society of modern-day witches quietly gaining power through both their magical deeds and VenCo, their corporate shell that puts women in power throughout the world. But beware: an immortal witch hunter is after them and more than ready to murder them all (and uphold the patriarchy) along the way.

Enter Lucky St. James, a Métis millennial with a dead-end job whose number one priority is taking care of her grandmother, even if it’s at the expense of her dreams. When she finds a strange silver spoon, she has no idea that her entire life is about to change, because her coven – and VenCo – are both coming to give her some very strange news about who she really is.

Canadian and Métis author Cherie Dimaline is a brilliant sentence-level writer who creates unforgettable characters, especially Lucky’s show-stealing grandmother Stella and witch hunter Jay Christos, who you’ll want to murder yourself as soon as you meet him. It’s a crackling romp around North America that pulls heartstrings while also talking about extremely serious issues like sexism, transphobia, climate change, dementia, and capitalism. It reads like a light escape and a meaningful literary read at the same exact time.
