Hey, listeners! We’ve been teasing how much we enjoyed Julia Alvarez’s In the Time of the Butterflies for a of couple weeks, and today our full discussion of this wonderful book is available in your podcast feed! This is a wonderful book about sisterhood, resilience, and fighting for what you believe in, and we loved getting to gush about the Mirabal sisters. We decided to keep this episode spoiler free so you can listen before, during, or after reading the book. And, of course, we’re also recommending six contemporary reads that pair with this modern classic, including an under-the-radar memoir in translation and an upcoming family story about sisters and secrets.
