ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Episode 9 finds me at the edge of a diving board ready to fly! I start with William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, and am thrilled to discover how much more energy there is in the text of this play than I remember, even from the last time that I read it (which was only a couple of years ago, to be honest (I love my reading group)).
We read this to be ready for Shakespeare Festival St. Louis's production of R&J in Forest Park this summer. It's their 18th year in Shakespeare Glen and this production is magnificent!
And it only gets better when I open the card! Oh, this is a pairing for the ages.

Episode 12 opens with a lot of joy and happiness because The Summer of Jordi Perez (and the best burger in LA) by Amy Spalding is a joy from beginning to end. My YA reading group read it for May, and I loved being able to spend some quiet time with it before I spent chatting time with my friends.

Episode 11 threw me for a good loop. I finished Eloquent Rage and considered the personal damage done to Love and living because of over-policing. Also my roommate came in so I got a bit off track, but got back on track.
The second book is a novel, and the relationships are layered and hard-workin…
Episode 13 starts with your host in a swirl of emotions after finishing Among Flowers in a day because it is such a beautiful book. I learned of it through the POC Travel Book Club organized by Bani Amor (although this book is not on their reading list as yet, it was an option that reminded me that…
