0:00.0	Need a fun summer read? The Sweeney Sisters by Lee and Dolan is out in paperback now.
0:05.8	Lee and Dolan, I hear she's great. In fact, bestselling author Susan Wiggs calls the Sweeney
0:10.8	Sisters, quote, a story to savor and share. But we call it, quote, a thinly veiled tale of our
0:18.0	childhood. Judge for yourselves, the Sweeney Sisters is available in paperback and all formats
0:25.0	at Amazon Barnes & Noble or your indie bookstore. You know, Joel, it would also make a great host
0:30.5	to skip for everyone you're visiting this summer. Hmm.
0:38.8	You're listening to Satellite Sisters. What's a Satellite Sister? The person you call when the
0:43.4	best thing in your life happens or the worst. The person that gets you up gets you going and gets

1:44.0	books we think we've done. Let's face it. In the past, we sometimes we picked it. One year I remember
1:48.8	I was so busy. I just said, it's books I want to read. It was, it's not a fake. That's
1:54.7	aspirational. But yes, you did a lot of reviewing. You didn't pay. I mean, you selected some out,
2:00.3	right, Liam? Right. Yeah, there was books I read that I did that I didn't put on the list. So
