Hello, listeners!
We have a short and sweet bonus episode for you today. It’s officially Summer Reading Season, and we’re revealing the six classics we’ll be reading and discussing on the podcast this summer. In today’s episode, we share all six titles along with why we picked them and what each of us is most excited to read. Each book was selected not just because it’s a great summer read, but because it offers lots of possibilities for great summer reading pairings, and we are so excited to hear your thoughts. The selections include a young adult classic, a romance, an intense novella with an unreliable narrator, something sweltering and southern, and a couple of epic adventures. Download the episode whenever you find podcasts and tell us which summer classic you’re most excited about!
