Forever one of my favourites. ❤️

Hey girls! let's talk about this book! It just awesome!

I think is one of the books that have change my mind (and probably my life) She (Virginia) could get into my mind and made me realize that every single mistake with my professional life I though I had made during my 20s, wasn't absolutely my fault but the fault of not having had my own room. That means that I had to work so hard just to have money and never had time to think what I really wanted to do with my life. Then... I got my "own room", "my annual rent" and thanks to that I could start reading things (because finally I had time) to do research... I finally got time to think in myself. And then I fell in love with gender issues. It was kind of late, but I did it, and I am proud of me. Thanks Virginia!

I wish every single woman in the world could realize that some self confidence problems we have are not because of our brains, hormones, personalities, or feelings, but because most of us don't have our own room since we were born.

Did you fall in love with Virginia like me? With this book or with other one? Now I'm reading Mrs. Dalloway. Any suggestions?

I have read this book months ago and totally love her style.
The next book I want to read is "To the lighthouse", I have read about it and I'm very courious
Very powerful her thinking about women in the history.
I wanna read all her books, one of my friend love Mrs. Dalloway, probably my next one!
Every woman deserves an "own room" for understand who and what she'll be in her life.

This book simply opened me a huge door on woman's situation. That is because the female conditions described by Virginia are still the same today, in different countries of the world. So this is, for me, clearly a contemporary book, perfect to discover the roots of the big difference between women and men's lives.

It is a powerful book. Women need a room of their own to be a poet. I think that they need a room of their own to be "somebody" they really want, where they can get away from whining children and endless chores, where they can concentrate on the things they have passion for.

I read this one before. I like the plot. A lot of people being androgynous in the real life are actually successful.

Yes, and I like how the books shows all the changes in rights and posibilities just for the gender change.

Oh my gosh! Yay! Someone talked about Virginia Woolf, she is by far the most well-known feminist writers. Alongside Charlotte Perkins Gilman who was exceptionally talented as well. Perkins famous one is The Yellow Wallpaper, that was exceptionally well-written in my view!

I quite enjoyed Woolf's A Room of One's Own and Flush: a biography. Those two are definitely good reads! :D

July! I really liked your comment!
Virginia has been a pilaster for me and my thesis and I really enjoyed talking about her and "a room of one's own" in front of men commissioners... They didn't as enjoy as me LOL. But I am glad because that was the topic I wanted to talk about!
I didn't read other Virginia's works but I want to read the "Orlando" because of a girl who suggested me it during this conversation, and "to the lighthouse".
I love her style and the way she wrote :)
