Tea or Books? #126: Should Books Be Banned? and Lessons in Chemistry vs Dear Mrs Bird
Banned books, Bonnie Garmus and A.J. Pearce – welcome to episode 126!
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/tea-or-books-126.mp3
In the first half of the episode, we discuss banned books – should books ever be banned? Does a book being banned make us want to read it more? In the second half, we pit two recent novels set in the mid-century: Dear Mrs Bird by A.J. Pearce and Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus.
