What to Read in November - The Farm by Joanne Ramos


Listen Later

This month we're reading The Farm - the much-hyped debut novel from Joanne Ramos, and we're wondering if we can borrow your high school ethics textbook? Thanks so much. 

The Blurb:

Nestled in the Hudson Valley is a sumptuous retreat boasting every amenity: organic meals, private fitness trainers, daily massages—and all of it for free. In fact, you get paid big money. The catch? For nine months, you belong to the Farm, as you dedicate yourself to the all-consuming task of producing the perfect baby for your überwealthy clients.

This is a book about class, race, privilege, and how far a woman will go to secure a future for herself and her family. 

Get reading, Bookworms, and we'll see you back here at the end of November.
