I'm Greta Johnson, I'm Tricia Bobita, and from W.Beezy in Chicago, this is Nurdette.

Coming up, did you think we were done talking about space?

Because we're not.

We'll talk with author Lydia Netzer.

She's written two books, one about astronomers

and the other one about an astronaut.

They're wonderful stories, but they're not overly sacrin which I always

appreciate. We'll talk with Netser about the idea that books can be sweet and smart at the same time.

So I find that I gravitate towards books where there is something beautiful to look at and some idea that is entirely positive.

All that plus your nerd confessions right here on Nurda.

Lydia Nutser has two books and both of them came out recently.

Shine Shine Shine is about a woman whose

astronaut husband goes to space which is lovely and good. But how to tell Toledo from the

night sky is one that I can't stop recommending to people which is also kind of a problem because I can't really

explain it to people very well either.

Try.

Try for us.

So it's essentially a love story and it's about fatalism.

It's about these two mothers who kind of plot to have kids at the same time and make them be soul mates.
