| 0:41.6 | I'm Amanda Nelson and I'm here with Jen Northington and we're coming to you from Book Riot. |
| 0:48.3 | Welcome. Hello. Welcome, welcome, welcome. I don't know. Just singing. Just John Ralphio. |
| 1:28.4 | I'm doing a little shimmy in my chair. So, um, usual, I feel like I don't need to continue to give this caveat because we're all in the same boat. But my children are here in my house. So if you hear any blood curdling screams or anything that sounds like a destructicon stepping through Manhattan, it's just my kids. Just my kids making a lot of noise. And this is going to be how it is until, you know, who knows? Yeah. Yeah. When they go back to school, if they go back to school, don't know. It reminds to be seen. Okay, so how the show works. As I said, this is a show for personalized reading recommendations. So if you need a reading recommendation, mayhaps, you are out of books to read in your self-isolation and need something new to order. Or if you need something for your book club or as a gift or whatever, you can send any or all of those to our inbox. We have an email address, get booked at bookwright.com. Or you can use the form in the show notes on this site. If you use the, I mean either. If your question is time sensitive, please let us know. Put it in the subject line. |
| 1:48.0 | If you're using the email... If you use the, I mean, either. If your question is time sensitive, please let us know. Put it in the subject line. If you're using the email, if you're using the form, just put it in big letters in the first line so we can see it as we're going through our question spreadsheet. If we can't answer your question in time, or if we've already answered a similar or identical question on the show, we will email you our response. And so that's why we're asking for your email address. |
| 2:02.7 | Okay. |
| 2:03.4 | We have a little bit of feedback from Nicole. |
| 2:05.5 | Nicole has a recommendation for Gigi. |
| 2:07.1 | She says, I highly recommend Anna Kay by Jenny Lee, |
| 2:10.1 | trigger warning for underage substance abuse and alcohol. |
| 2:12.7 | Courtney says, for bad things happening to tiny humans, |
| 2:16.0 | the need by Helen Phillips is delightfully strange and scary. It does come with trigger warnings for death of a child, so not sure how far you want to go down the road, but it's also one of the most honest depictions of motherhood I have ever read. Okay. Wow. That's not. How does that? I've never even heard of that book. How did that escape my notice? Like you a little fiction about how hard moming is? I am into that. I'm going to read that. Yeah, that is your wheelhouse. Yeah. All right. So Jen's going to read us our first question, and we will hear from our first sponsor in a way we'll go. All right. Our first question is from Emma, who says, everything I was excited about doing this summer has been canceled, and I'm now suffering from a lack of things to look forward to. |
| 2:53.5 | I was wondering if you could recommend a great series that has another book coming out in a few slash several months from now so I can read the books that already exist and then eagerly anticipate the next installment. |
| 3:04.2 | Some things I like include high fantasy, women or non-binary authors, and characters, LGBTQness, and audiobooks. |
