Show notes:

When you’re looking for books to read, do you often go to the New Releases and check those out first? We get it. There are always new and shiny books coming out. BUT hear us out. What about reading some backlist books instead? They need love too! In this episode, we’re talking about our favorite backlist books from years past and also a few that we still haven’t read yet (but plan to… at some point… maybe!).
