Sibling Library

In this chapter, we let you know about a newish service at the Oakland International Airport to help with your literary travel needs as well. We also dive back in to the world of Colleen Hoover's It Ends with Us with its sequel It Starts with Us. Finally, in honor of the upcoming Free Comic Book day on the first Saturday in May we give our thoughts on Jeff Lemire's Sweet Tooth and what comics we are hoping to pick up this year.

Back for another fun conversation, we welcome author Emily Waters to the show to discuss her new book Two Is a Pattern from YLVA publishing. We open the show with a review of the 2024 Newbery Medal winner: The Eyes and the Impossible by Dave Eggers and get a quick review of the sequel to the 2020 Newbery Medal winner New Kid by Jerry Craft: Class Act from friend of the show, Riley. We end sharing our thoughts and frustrations with the book club app Fable as well as discuss our current selection, Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Let's keep reading, sharing, and repeating.

This month we discuss the 2023 Goodreads Choice Award winner for historical fiction as well as debut novel: Weywardby Emilia Hart. We talk through our thoughts about the genre, the characters, the story. We go deep so be warned there are spoilers ahead if you want to read the book first and come back to this one.

First, we take a ⁠quiz⁠ to learn which animal would be our familiar. We also tease a special guest for next month: ⁠Emily Waters⁠. Emily will be joining us to discuss her new book Two is a Pattern available now so go grab a copy!

Happy new year from Sibling Library. In this chapter we take a look back at 2023 with our personal Good Reads stats as well as look in to 2024 and some of our literary related intentions.

Welcome to another chapter of Sibling Library where we are celebrating all things books - which really are the best gift of all. We participate in our second annual Jolabokaflod as well as look back on last year's exchange. We also reflect on our year of reading and pick some best and worst reads for the year. Please find our new book club on Fable and read Charles Dickens's classic A Christmas Carol to end the year. Happy holidays and we will see you in 2024.

Welcome to another chapter of Sibling Library. This month we have a roundtable Q&A about books and the reading lifestyle for which we did not prepare for. We get vulnerable and silly. Until next month, let's read, share, and repeat.

Welcome to another chapter of Sibling Library. This month we talk about historical fiction and what the genre means to us. We also create reading recommendations of historical fiction books that have female protagonists.
