Plans Are Booked

Chapter 57: Catalina by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio


Listen Later

This week we're reunited with an author we all admire. We're discussing the fiction novel debut of Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, who wrote The Undocumented Americans. This new work, Catalina, is about a young woman attending Harvard while juggling the many stressors and anxieties that come with being undocumented. We applaud Villavicencio's sharp writing in which every single word packs a punch and praise her ability to balance difficult topics with wit, humor and levity. In our catch up this week, Kaitlin previews the itinerary for her upcoming trip to London and Paris, Steph shares some ridiculous health insurance shenanigans, and Molly recaps a night out on Newbury Street. In what we're reading this week, Steph boards a submersible and Molly falls further down the One Tree Hill rabbit hole with another cast member's memoir.
