The #metoo movement has sparked many interesting conversations online, in the media and among friends and colleagues about consent, equality and using the power you do have to raise up others. With International Women’s Day falling in March, this is an excellent time to highlight books that will keep this discussion going.

Books and more to remind you that being at home is a good thing

Lots of great bread-making resources to get you started!

Good, basic books on Stoic philosophy. The focus here is on: a) a few writers who have interpreted Stoic philosophy for modern audiences, b) the surviving Greco-Roman texts, and c) a couple of biographies. Unfortunately, I've yet to find a good biography of Marcus Aurelius; let me know if you've found one! The links here all go to Goodreads and, for the ancient texts, to the translations/editions I recommend. By the way, not one of these books is in the Coquitlam Library system!

Books that you are generally expected to read.

All the great comics you'll ever find...probably!?

Travel from the safety of your own backyard or balcony! Or go for a physically distanced road trip or camping adventure. Take one of these BC, Yukon, west coast travel books with you!
