Back in January, Julie's daughter Caroline was home from college so we took this opportunity for a mother/daughter book talk. In this episode Caroline talks about how not-so-great her reading year was, compared to Julie's best reading year yet (helps when you're a bookseller and not a college student). They also talk about how being pressured to read a book makes them want to read it less, how stating a book wasn't liked by Julie helps it sell in the bookstore, and so much more.
