You're listening to all the backlist, a weekly show about books that are not new.

I'm your host, Patricia Elsie Tuddle, and I'll read some books, I...well, read some

books, I'll read some backlist books.

This is episode number 355 and a half, and today I'm going to talk about a couple backlist

titles that I'm excited to share with you.

Hi, everyone. Today is a little bit bittersweet. If you are listening to this episode on April

1st, the day it drops, it's my birthday. Yes, I was born on April Fool's Day, and honestly,

I love having my birthday on this day. I identify with it a lot, and I really lean into my

trickster god energy. If you listen to Tuesday's all the books episode already, you will know that

we have some really exciting changes going on here, and this backlist episode, I believe,

is my last backlist episode for a while. Not necessarily forever, I just need some room to do

some things that fill my cup. I love this show, and we have the best listeners, special shout-out

to listener Melissa, who sent me the sweetest postcard. Really, you listeners are awesome,

and you make this job a joy. But as I said on Tuesday's show, sometimes I have to say no to some

things I like doing in order to say yes to myself. I look forward to getting back to more baking

and bean cooking, dusting off my ukulele, and getting back to learning that, and focusing more

on my writing beyond my personal newsletter. I have so many words and thoughts and ideas in me

that I want to share with the world. I'm also going to get to read a lot more books that I haven't

been able to get to. If you don't know, I am one of the writers of bookwrites read this book newsletter,

so you can find me there as well as still on the newly revamped all the books with Liberty once a

month. You can't get rid of me that easily. Anyway, let's talk about some books. Before I get to

my backless book picks, let's hear from a sponsor. Today's episode is brought to you by Amazon
