Done Being Strong with Jasmine Sims

By Her Shelf Podcast is all about introducing readers to books worth reading and people worth following. Each week, you'll get to know one reader based solely on her (or, on occasion, his) shelf--the books she/he reads, writes, or helps bring into the world. Occasionally, By Her Shelf will feature solo episodes from founder and podcast host Erica D. Hearns, topical episodes featuring By Her Shelf Contributors Alex and Christina, or other special bookish content.
