LIBBA BRAY: A Conversation about Under the Same Stars [Ep 267]
Some conversations leave a mark, and this one with author Libba Bray is exactly that. From the first few minutes, we found ourselves completely pulled in by her honesty, humor, and the kind of insight that makes you pause and say, “Yes, that’s it.” What started as a chat about books quickly turned into a rich, winding conversation about creativity, teaching, storytelling, and the way young people show up in the world with fierce hope and resilience. We dive into Libba’s newest novel, Under the Same Stars—a multigenerational story inspired by a real-life matchmaking tree—explor...

Chapter 70: Under the Same Stars by Libba Bray
This week we discuss a story about resistance. Bray's novel includes three timelines and three character duos, each trying to make sense of the political environments they're living in. We discuss how YA often tackles hard topics, how strange it is to read about the pandemic, the power of first love, the themes of not being complicit and remaining hopeful, and how deeply relevant this book is to the current state of our country. In our catch up, Kaitlin recaps her trip to Charleston, Steph educates us on septic testing, and Molly shares about her vacation to Mexico. In...

Episode 41: He Rec'd She Rec'd, recommending books with multiple perspectives and a strong sense of place for Holly and Brandon
Today we’re recommending books for Holly and her husband Brandon. Holly enjoys historical fiction books that are a good mixture of character and plot driven, fantasy series where the setting is so strong it almost becomes a character itself, and books where the story is told from different characters’ perspectives. Brandon is just starting to become a reader and really enjoys plot driven stories, thrillers that lean towards horror, and sports. Tune in to find out which books we recommend for this bookish couple, plus what we’re currently reading. Email us here Follo...
