19 - Recursion

This month we unpack Margaret Atwood's true-ish crime novel Alias Grace.  The famous Canadian murderess Grace Marks recounts her life in excruciating detail, then tries to tell us she simply cannot remember the most important 37 seconds that have ever happened to her--GET OUT OF HERE WITH ALL THAT ISH GRACE!

We're back from our break to cool you off with Kristin Hannah's Alaskan tale The Great Alone.  Good ol' K-Han can tell a damn good story, make you love the characters more than your mama, then break your heart into a million little pieces, and this one is no exception!  

The highly discussible Nightbitch is the star of the show this week!  Rachel Yoder GETS it and we are here for it all--the good, the bad & the really freakin weird aspects of motherhood!

In honor of St Patrick's Day, we present to you:  A BOOK WITH CLOVERS ON THE COVER!  Tracey Lange's book is one of our Top Reads of the year so far--family drama, uncovered secrets & old flames come together perfectly in this story about the Brennan siblings.

March 2022 Releases, (All) Day Drinkin', & Fae-Lovin' from the mind of Sarah J. Maas.

Liz & guest co-host Jamie attempt to discuss Blake Crouch's Recursion.  If time-travel, memory-jumping, sci-fi smarty-pants novels are your thing, this is THE book for you!

We join the Song of Achilles party about 10 years too late (shout out to Madeline Miller) and talk about it for 12 hours straight! Yay!

Just a little mini discussing The Wrong Family by Tarryn Fisher & Leave the World Behind by Rumaan Alam.  No spoilers!

Soooo over covid; let's talk about Jeannette Walls's memoir The Glass Castle!

Presents, TV, & Joanna Goodman's take on the Duplessis Orphans.
