In this chapter, we talk about a recent author talk we attended with Amy Tan thanks to the Solano County Library. Make sure to keep an eye on your local library to see what kinds of amazing programs they are doing. We discuss her works, her life, and our impressions of it all. We kick off our show with a roundup of what items from books we would like to receive as gifts (as we celebrate all of our birthdays this month as well) and we end with bookends and what we have been reading lately.
