The Lit Ladies Book Club finally chose Maya Angelou, one of my favorite authors. Yay!<\/p>\n
I just finished reading Letter to My Daughter<\/em><\/em>. It took me one afternoon. It’s bite-size Maya Angelou. Not exactly the depth and length of her autobiographies. I wasn’t sure how I felt about it at first. It was so quick. I wanted more. Her life lessons are so well expressed. She has an ability to be truly present in life and essentially snapshot meaningful moments.<\/p>\n While, Letter to My Daughter<\/em> may not have the full punch of Heart of a Woman<\/em> or I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings<\/em>, I did love it. After I finished it I immediately went back and reread some of my favorite sections. I began folding down pages for future reference. Guess that means it’s a keeper!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Lit Ladies Book Club finally chose Maya Angelou, one of my favorite authors. Yay!
