Women's Work Is Never Done: Celebrating Everything Women Do

by B.J. Gallagher

Not to be confused with Alice's famous remark on a memorable episode of the Honeymooners, "Men work from sun to sun, but women's work is never done," Women's Work Is Never Done by BJ Gallagher celebrates the fact that women's work is never done because it's never meant to be done. Women are meant to nourish and grow themselves and others, throughout their lives, and Gallagher's book acknowledges and affirms it.

A simple, somewhat monotonous book. I expected stories about women, but it's a collection of A-Z adages and quotes from the author. The redundancy felt forced, but I liked several quotes.

This year and the next, I've challenged myself to read more non-fiction. Women's Work Is Never Done is also 1 of 6 books I'm reading simultaneously for the Lipstick Pages Lit Review. Personal deadline: 6 reviews published in 3 weeks. Then more selections for review...

great reminder for all, esp. women...have to remember to take good care of ourselves..."you, yourself, as much as anyone in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection." ~the Buddha

It was a bit too cheesy for me. Some of the quotes were good but the overall alphabet listing of "a woman's work is to" was hokey and more blanket ideas than specifics for inspiration and motivation.
