    Her sister Grace is graceful. And beautiful and charming and witty. Felicity however lacks all that and her own namesake; happiness. Overshadowed and taunted by her twin sister her entire life, Felicity yearns to escape to a world where she can excel. That world exists. The only problem is that it belongs to men. The year is 1901 and women will not be allowed to practise law for another eighteen years. They face crippling inequality before the courts and lack any form of political power to change that. Desperate to make a difference and find her true calling, Felicity leaves her life as a gaunt and undesirable bluestocking and, with the help of her older brother, becomes Felix, a first year law student at Cambridge. She had given up all hope of ever finding love. Who could love a skinny intellectual like herself? So sure was she, Felicity was willing to sacrifice any future possibility in order to live as Felix and make a change. But as the term progresses, Felicity begins to consider whether she may have been too hasty in her decision. An historical fiction novel documenting one woman’s extraordinary effort to make her mark in what was solely a man’s world, trying to find felicity in freedom and love.

    In a time of social upheaval and change, Winifred Banks: Votes and Valor chronicles the untold story of Winifred Banks, a seemingly ordinary wife and mother in Edwardian London. Known to many as the caring but distracted mother from Mary Poppins, Winifred's life outside her home is anything but ordinary. As the wife of George Banks, Winifred struggles to balance her responsibilities in a traditional household with her growing passion for the women's suffrage movement. Behind the closed doors of 17 Cherry Tree Lane, she grapples with her desire for independence and the pressures of conforming to society's expectations of women. But beyond her domestic duties, Winifred emerges as a fierce advocate for women's rights. Joining forces with other suffragettes, she participates in secret meetings, organizes rallies, and bravely faces the dangers of civil disobedience. Her journey is one of courage and conviction, as she battles not only for the right to vote but also for her own voice in a world that often silences women. As Winifred fights for justice, she must also confront the growing tension within her family, particularly with her husband, whose views on the suffrage movement challenge their marriage. Through her struggles, she learns the true meaning of valor, finding strength in her beliefs and the solidarity of the women around her. Votes and Valor is a powerful tale of a woman's quest for equality, capturing the spirit of an era where the fight for justice took center stage. It's a story of resilience, transformation, and the unwavering pursuit of a better world for future generations.

    John (not his real name) says feminism is harmful, pointless, and "no regular male" wants anything to do with it. That "no regular male" thing got right up my nose. So I posted a point by point response. John got angry (as I knew he would) and exposed the ugly arrogance beneath his 'rational man' front.

    " you never appreciate what you have till you lose it " --- Humanity as a whole learns this the hard way as they realise the end day draws closer each passing day. Not wanting the world to end the way it is, an unlikely group form, consisting of an investigator, bartender, rebellion leader and teacher, all who join up to uncover the mystery that shrouded their world. And maybe find the means to save it. It's not heroism, it's the will to live. --- copyright©Jae Li 2017 All Rights Reserved amazing cover (foster child) by: @NeverYawn
