This is Your Book Club Podcast

Book club! Book club! Hear ye! Hear ye! Our July bookclub pick is Shelterwood by Lisa Wingate. An untold history of women pioneers who fought to protect children caught in the storm of land barons hungry for power and oil wealth in 1909, Oklahoma.  Join us for this book club meeting as we discuss what we thought.  Let us know if you read and what your take aways were. 

On this episode, we have some fiction to add to your tbr and a childrens picture book to add as well. Summer has us both going in different directions, but we are loving the time spent reading.

Very spicy. You have been warned. WOW! There are no words to describe our feelings on this months book, Butcher and Blackbird by Brynn Weaver.  This book is not at all what we expected. If you read, what did you think?

We have such a good stack of books for your today.  It is clearly summer and we have time to read. It helps that all of my books that have been on hold from the library all came available AT THE SAME TIME. I'm not complaining though. This is what we love doing. Reading!
