Here's a little shorty for you guys. This week we're excited about books that are coming out this summer, including a number of full length books from some of our favorite journalists and critics at large. We're here to break the stigma about summer reads and prove that like a beach body being the body you have, but in a bikini, the best beach reads are whatever book you are reading on the beach.
Next week we will be discussing The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy. Read along with us!
The full list of our recommendations can be found on our blog post for the episode.
This week we discuss the complicated task that is reviewing a memoir after we read The Collected Schizophrenias: Essays by Esme Weijun Wang.
Our next read will be The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy.
By popular demand: we discuss audiobooks, what we like, what we don't and how to get them.
Next time we will be discussing The Collected Schizophrenias: Essays by Esme Weijun Wang. Get it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us.
This week in book news: a very Becca and Corinne house has hit the market in St. Clair Shores. For a one time Patreon donation of just $500k you can live in it with us.
We also read and discussed Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss. Due to the length and nature of the book this conversation is not at all spoiler free. We don't even try. If this troubles you, the book will only take a couple of hours to read and we highly recommend it.
We took a dive into some feminist literary criticism this week and read Joanna Russ's How to Suppress Women's Writing. It was published in 1983 and therefore focuses a lot on strictly women's writing - but we contend these methods have been used and continue to be used not just on work and art by women, but that of people of color and the LGBTQ+ community.
You can read the book here.
Next week we will be reading and discussing Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss. You can find it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us.
