  • Summary

  • A few people asked for "just a good summer read" - even if their names were lost in the ether before the booksellers could capture them on IG. This led Episode 44 to begin with a discussion about what makes a book a summer book. Ideas included: it's about a road trip? it's a paperback, it's intense and engrossing and long because you finally have time for those books, or it's light and breezy and entertaining. In short, we reached no conclusion about a definition of a summer read, and the booksellers came up with a great list for you for your summer - no matter your definition of a summer book. Their recommendations include VenCoby Cherie Dimqline, The Swifts for kids, Fake Accounts,and Lapvona by an author we mention a lot - Otessa Moshvegh.
