Books on the Nightstand, Episode 7 (22:00)
Show Notes:
Summer has struck hard here in New England, so in today's episode, we take a look at the concept of "Summer Reading." We've been having a conversation about it over on the Books on the Nightstand Good Reads group. There, our friend Stephen invented the phrase "mental popcorn," which is a perfect way to describe one style of summer reading. What's your style?
Then we talk about five books that we recommend for summer reading. Some are newly published, others are old favorites, and all will keep you entertained during the long, hot days of summer.
Lastly, as always, two new books that we can't wait for you to read.
Thanks for listening. Stay cool. And if you're in the Southern Hemisphere ... send plane tickets and your address -- we'll be right over!
