Holy shit. There were over 600 reading glasses supporters during the maximum fun drive.

So Mallory and I are doing something special as a thank you.

We're doing a live streamed book club and the best part you guys get to vote on the book.

So just go to the Facebook group and vote in the comments.

Or you can email your book choice to Reading Glasses Podcast at gmail.com if you aren't on

Facebook like me.

Voting ends on April 30th and we will announce the pick on our social media

channels on May 1st and we will probably talk about it on this podcast as well.

So you'll have a month to read the book and we will announce the exact date of the book

club as we get closer, but it will be in the first week of June at some point.

We will do a live video stream and hope you will tune in to chat about that very special book

that you guys pick. So please go vote and we will see you soon.

You're listening to reading glasses, a show about book culture and literary life designed

to help you read better.

I'm writer, filmmaker, and book devour, Mallory O'Mara.

And I'm Priya Grant, actress filmmaker and e-reader. This episode we talk about the ways

that you can do some good as a reader and interview author Patrick Ruffis. But first...

What are you reading, Bria? Oh, I just finished this great book, and I'm going to talk about it even though I've already finished it.

It's called six months, three days, five others by Charlie, Jane Anders.

The new short story collection.

Yeah, yeah. I guess some of the stories have already were released separately and now it's a collection.

It actually took a while to get it from the library. I don't know if it just came out. I'm not sure when it came out.
