A Big Little Night for Women & Books at the Emmy's #book2movies

Both The Handmaids Tale and Big Little Lies won big at the Emmy’s! The Handmaid’s Tale taking the top prize for Outstanding Drama Series with Big Little Lies winning Outstanding Limited Series! Here’s how I responded last night as the small screen adaptations got their due.

Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon, executive producers of Big Little Lies had much to celebrate. Shame they both couldn’t win for their acting but Kidman’s performance was understandably lauded for its dark, dramatic and important nature.

Congratulations #NicoleKidman 4 a stunning, illuminating performance & 2 @RWitherspoon You did it together #BigLittleLies #Emmys #Emmys2017 pic.twitter.com/hjvFLHyPHJ
