From Bodice Rippers to Trailblazers: Feminism through Romance

A Picture to Capture the Event Before It Began!!


I enjoyed attending another wonderful author event at the 2016 Bay Area Book Festival called 'From Bodice Rippers to Trailblazers: Feminism through Romance' with an author panel, which included authors Aya de Leon, Gail Carriger, Alice Gaines, Kristin Miller, and moderator, Beth Barany. 

All of the women authors who spoke at this event are new to me authors. I was intrigued as to what they had to share about feminism and romance, so looked forward to attending the event. I enjoyed learning how each of these women defined feminism and shared how they showcased feminism in their books.

I thought that 'From Bodice Rippers to Trailblazers: Feminism through Romance' was a very lively and engaging event to attend. Many book festival attendees came to this event. I enjoyed hearing the authors answers questions from the audience as well during this 75 minute event.

I look forward to reading books by both Beth Barany & Aya de Leon in the future.

'From Bodice Rippers to Trailblazers: Feminism through Romance' was held on the sixth floor of the Hotel Shattuck Plaza.

Until my next post, happy reading!!
