13 Groundbreaking Toni Morrison Books to Read Right Now
Although she left us more than two years ago, Toni Morrison and her singular oeuvre live on in our hearts and mind, rippling like concentric circles over fathomless depths as she upends and transforms myths of race and redemption, personal and political. One of only 12 Americans to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, Morrison was born on February 18, 1931, and raised in Lorain, Ohio, earning degrees from Howard and Cornell.
What My Best Friend Taught Me About Dying
Put down your coffee, your bagel, and imagine for a minute that you’re dying. I’m kidding! Because you’re dying already! We all are. Our lives—they’re finite. And you wouldn’t, say, quit eating just because you’re certainly going to be dead at some point, right? For the past three years, I’ve cooked dinner every Monday as a hospice volunteer, and I’ve learned that you don’t necessarily stop feeling a bit snacky just because your days are numbered.
What Being on the Other Side of Menopause Feels Like to Naomi Watts
Naomi Watts, 54, has a new venture she's passionate about. Providing both educational resources and science-backed products, Stripes is a community for people in all stages of menopause.

Why Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Swears By Cold Plunges and a Bit of Makeup

So when I ask her how she fits her beauty and wellness routine into her day, she levels with me: “It doesn’t happen every day. I’m, like all of us, spinning many plates. My son is five and my daughter is coming up on nine months—let's be realistic, there's not a lot of me-time. It’s a juggle and I’m really lucky because I have a village and a supportive partner that is super hands on as well.” Fair.
How to Fix a Friendship
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below." Not all friendships are created equal; that is to say, although you may value your friends equally, each person has a distinct friendship style. If you’ve ever had a friend get furious at you, and you didn’t know why, chances are you were interacting with her in a way that worked well with another friend (or many) but didn’t match that friend’s criteria of closeness.
What to Say When You Have No Idea What to Say
When your best friend interviews for her dream job—and doesn’t get it: “You are more than this situation. You are more than this job. You are more than your work life.” Don’t waste her time with any dreck about how this job wouldn’t have actually been her dream job. That’s not nearly the point. You know it. She knows it. And that cannot be helped. But what you can help her with is regaining her sense of perspective.
