Not A Bookclub

We did not pick this topic because of the attack on Ukraine, but there is nothing else we would rather discuss in light of it. Here is a discussion of tyranny in all its form. Political or not. Fiction and nonfiction. History and mythology.

Another month gone by with more books to talk about. Except there wasn't much reading. This is a podcast about two ladies ranting and reading, but for this episode, Deb and Mindy really amped up the ranting part. If the 20 minute rant about vampires don't convince you, then the other 20 minute rant about another book might!
