Reba is the Waltham High School Librarian and she poses an intriguing question to us that has plagued librarians for ages … what is historical fiction anyway? And why does it matter? Reba also talks about her school’s infamous Read-A-Thon which made its COVID-come-back this spring. Hear about all that, plus the books we’re reading and much more!

What does freedom really look like? What happens when your life, your future, is not really yours to control … is your liberty rusted? (Sorry, we took some liberties with the title … pun intended!). Many of our topics in this episode explore this theme in some way or another whether it’s the freedom to be who you are or who you’d like to be or freedom from patriarchy, harassment, and oppression. Listen in to hear our thoughts on the readability of different texts and what we’re watching this summer!

Happy Birthday to This Podcast is Overdue! In this episode April and Christi celebrate one year since the podcast first launched and of course cake is involved. We talk about not one, not two, but three books written by amazing women. Their books speak to personal power by telling their stories, speaking up even when it’s tough, and literally having women turning into dragons! If all that excitement keeps you up at night, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with a snoozy suggestion - listen beyond the credits for a special surprise!

In this episode April cheats like a preschooler so she can talk about 2 books instead of just one. But we think you’ll love, love, love our book choices! The power of love is a curious thing and if you’re a curious person you’ll want to join us to hear about some cool science, library science, and what’s going on in those little kid brains.
