Episode 177 - Author Spotlight with Amy Tector

There are books and bookstores galore in this episode! Some highlights include – Emily went to see Aunt Ellen in Berkeley, CA, and together they visited two public libraries, a whole bunch of little free libraries, and TEN bookstores! Aunt Ellen gave Emily first dibs on her brand new copy of FINLAY DONOVAN JUMPS THE GUN by Elle Cosimano (now that’s love). Emily also read another book by Maggie O’Farrell, THE VANISHING ACT OF ESME LENNOX. Chris traveled to 1855 England via THE WARDEN, her first Anthony Trollope novel. She also enjoyed a virtual event via the Harriet Beecher Stowe Center, “Understanding Katherine S. Days Identity: Interpreting Sexuality in Early 20th Century New England, Four Case Studies in LGBTQIA+ History.” Readalong: We talk about our first quarter readalong, PARNASSUS ON WHEELS (1917) by Christopher Morley. And we announce our second-quarter pick for our year of reading Books about Books. Hint: it was published in 2021 and involves a girl and her grandfather. Author Spotlight: We were thrilled to have a chat with Canadian writer Amy Tector, author of the Dominion Archives Mystery series. SPEAK FOR THE DEAD, the second book in the series, publishes today (March 14, 2023).
