Storybound and an early preview of fall reading
Happy Saturday!
We have a special treat in our podcast feed this weekend! We partnered with Storybound podcast to share a glimpse inside Laurie Frankel’s new book One, Two, Three. This heartfelt novel was one of Sara’s midyear superlatives and hearing Laurie read from it herself paired with immersive sound design is such a cool experience. It’s been a great opportunity for us to partner with Storybound to promote each other’s podcasts. If you have a chance to download the episode and listen for even a few minutes, it would mean a lot to us!
Yesterday we also shared our fall reading lineup with our Patreon Classics Club! We’ll be sharing our book selections with everyone at the end of August, but if you want a sneak peek, sign up for any Patreon tier at patreon.com/novelpairings.
What’s next
On Tuesday, we’re dropping an episode on A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams. It’s a book we were fairly ambivalent about, but we had a fantastic conversation and our pairings include some excellent (and surprising!) novels.
The following week we’ll be back to topple your TBRs with an episode filled with mythology inspired novels and retellings. It was inspired by a great book club conversation about Stacey Swann’s Olympus, Texas—which is a book we both love and recommend!
