Today, Maile and I are talking about our first year as book shop owners. How has this year changed us? Do we view books differently than we did before owning a book store?

We also chat about a book we've both read that is a beautiful example of what a book written in the 1st person can accomplish--it's quirky and haunting and unexpected. Happy one year to Nooks!

Books mentioned during the conversation:

Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk Brothers K by David James Duncan We Do Not Part by Han Kang The Vegeterian by Han Kang Little Sister Death by William Gay Finding Me by Viola Davis
