While I'm sad she's taking a year off acting, I think it's so awesome she'll be using her year to grow and educate herself more, and even help educate her fans more (via that feminist bookshelf idea). Actresses are only obligated to entertain, but she seems mindful of her fans -- and expanding their horizons and political awareness as well.
