ABOUT THIS EPISODE
We love to read. One of the best parts of that experience is when you are able to connect what you are reading to other books, songs, movies, and other various forms of art. For this podcast, I will cover books as I read them. In our brief episodes, we will talk about the book analytically, and then try to curate a small list other media that we feel like fits into the story that we just read. If you have something that you feel like would also go well with the book, then please share! Stories connect us, and we want to use this platform to help connect people in positive ways through them. Thanks for listening!
