Chyyeah girl power! Dagny is so awesome. Oh, but you forget the best one--Bella! JKKKKK
I figured that Bella was not even worth making a joke about.
Love it! How about Katniss from the Hunger Games? I thoroughly enjoyed the book and she is a lot more independent than Bella ella ella ella!
Good point, Chelle...duly noted.
I need you to stop being my soulmate at once. Mostly because you still live in Utah, and I don't. Esther Greenwood?! She's only my most favorite person in the entire world and oftentimes 152 insights into my soul. Controversial, for sure, because people automatically get a nervous look on their face when I say that, but there it is, folks.
