Mangum Reads

This week embark on another suggestion by Sarah, Station Eleven, with the partial caveat that there isn’t much plot. We then thoroughly enjoyed talking through some of the characters in this episode. We will finish the characters and probably cover the world building in the next episode

Next up: TBD/A

In the future: Cuisine des Memoires by NK Jemisin (I think there might be some sort of Jemisin theme here)

Suggestions welcome.

In our ‘podcast within a podcast’ we are doing a chapter by chapter read of the Harry Potter books. Every episode we’ll cover one chapter with a summary, individual segments (questioning Sarah about the Wizarding World) along with a bit of a discussion about the books from a muggle perspective.

This week embark on another suggestion by Sarah, Station Eleven, with the partial caveat that there isn’t much plot. We then thoroughly enjoyed talking through what plot there was for an entire episode. Depending on your exact opinions, this is our first post-apocalyptic story.  We are excited to tackle the characters in our next episode.

This week we take on the Hugo Award winner this year for best short story, which was also nominated for the Nebula and quite a few other awards. This story was chosen by BJ to force Sarah into reading it, and luckily she quite enjoyed it.
