My Own Words

Over the last year, including this past summer, I scooped up a few Ruth Bader Ginsburg books and audios, hoping I would get to them soon. Unfortunately, I didn’t, but shortly after her death, I both listened to and read My Own Words. I highly recommend the audio, if you think you’d enjoy hearing RBG and her husband giving speeches, dissents, and more. It’s also narrated by Linda Lavin, and her accent melded perfectly with RBG’s. I was moved to tears many times over.
I personally don’t remember a time when RBG hasn’t sat on the Supreme Court, and I don’t even know how to begin to thank her for her life’s work. I hope she knows just how much she was loved and admired.
I don’t know how this book compares to the others out there, and like I mentioned, I have a few more on my shelf. What I do know is hearing her speak directly made this audio a standout, and it’s a beautiful and loving tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Great review, Jennifer. I was gifted this book and hope to read it soon. RBG was a remarkable lady.

I need to read this. She is so missed. Wonderful review.
I listened to the audio of this, as well, Jennifer, I think around a year ago. I was painting the walls early in the fall, and I was completely immersed in listening to this one. She is, indeed, missed, and will continue to be missed.
Beautiful review, Jennifer.
Wonderful review Jennifer. I admire RBG for many things, including her ability to be friends with people on both sides of the aisle. A lesson for us all!

Yes! I don't remember a time when she didn't sit on the Supreme Court either. Such a loss to know that mainstay we had for so long is suddenly gone. I'm just glad that I really think she knew how much she was admired and how important she felt to so many.
I see you and I are of the same mind here. Lavin's voice was such a good match for this one.
Wonderful review, Jenni!
