004 - The Uncommon Reader & Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret 26.04.2023 5:52

This episode celebrates girl power along with incredibly short books, both of whom feature protagonists who pack a punch - The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett and Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret by Judy Blume.

003 - Anya's Ghost & Radio Silence 19.04.2023 6:29

Maybe themes will emerge in my reading eventually, but this episode was just "books I found interesting" as I discuss the graphic novel Anya's Ghost by Vera Brosgol and the realistic fiction book Radio Silence by Alice Oseman.

002 - The Wild Book & Maeve in America 12.04.2023 5:58

Despite the thousands of books that are published in English each year, I truly believe readers are missing out if they don't explore translated works or authors from countries besides their own. This episode looks at The Wild Book by Juan Villoro and Maeve in America by Maeve Higgins.

001 - This is How You Lose the Time War & The View From Saturday 01.04.2023 11:56

Time is a funny thing, both when reading contemporary science fiction and classic children's books. This episode looks at This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone and The View from Saturday by EL Konigsburg.
