Get Up Offa That Slump: A Blogging Extravaganza is a blogging challenge hosted by Rachel from Beauty and the Bookshelf. It last through the whole month of March and the goal is to post something on your blog, with different themes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, which is especially awesome if you have been in a bit of a blogging slump like I have.

Today s topic is Inspirational women in fiction.



Celaena Sardothien


Celaena is an assassin, strong, kickass, lovely and loves to read. She is smart, relays on herself to make the right choice and fight for herself.

Rachel Morgan


One of my all time favorite female characters, Rachel is a witch/demon who is smart, sassy and awesome with spells. Her friends are always there to help her and she is always there to help them.

Kaylee Cavanaugh


Kalyee is always ready to help someone, she is quick on her feet, really intelligent and she sacrifices a lot to save those she loves.

Charley Davidson


My all time favorite character, Charley is full of sarcasm, fun, super awesome powers, great detective skills and coffee.

Lady Alexia Tarabotti / Maccon


In an era where women s voices were not heard, Alexia is a breath of fresh air. She is snarky while proper, armed with a sharp wit and her trusty parasol and always hilarious.

Merit


Armed with her katana and her mind, there is no threat Merit cant face.

Kate Daniels


The ultimate badass woman, Kate Daniels is a power to be reckoned with, reasonable most of the time, loyal, kind and a true warrior.

I also have to mention Mery Thompson, Katy Schwarz, Deuce, Rose Hathaway, Dred and Jane Jameson, this list would not have been complete without them.

Do you agree with my choices?

    Celaena Sardothien seems to be on most everyone's list! I have Assassin's Blade and the first three books of the series, but I haven't had time to read them yet. :)

Naked and Far from Home by J.P. Grider  Publication date: October 18th 2015  Genres: Contemporary, New Adult Synopsis: Tia Mercury was a freshman in high school and had her first serious crush – on a senior who wouldn’t touch her. At least not until she turned eighteen. Clinton Daniels was not your everyday teenage boy, and because his tougher-than-nails father wouldn’t let him forget it, Clinton became a loner. And learned to distrust everyone. Until he met Tia. She was sweet, she was funny, and she knew nothing about good music. It was the nineteen-eighties for goodness sake – time to turn off that AM radio crap. So, while Tia drooled over Clinton, he was busy making her mix-tapes. She was falling in love. He was ignoring his heart. See, Clinton had a secret. But sharing it could cost him their friendship, and he was not willing to risk losing the only person he ever loved. Naked and Far From Home is a serious story that spans a decade. A

  Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, originally created by  Breaking the Spine , that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This is my choice for this week: The Gilded Ones (Deathless #1) by   Namina Forna   The start of a bold and immersive West African-inspired, feminist fantasy series for fans of Children of Blood and Bone and Black Panther. In this world, girls are outcasts by blood and warriors by choice. Sixteen-year-old Deka lives in fear and anticipation of the blood ceremony that will determine whether she will become a member of her village. Already different from everyone else because of her unnatural intuition, Deka prays for red blood so she can finally feel like she belongs. But on the day of the ceremony, her blood runs gold, the color of impurity--and Deka knows she will face a consequence worse than death. Then a mysterious woman comes to her with a choice: stay in the village and submit to her fate, or leave to fight for the emperor i
