Hello, everyone, and welcome back to another week of book picks.
I finished a book earlier this week before being invited to be on our I Care About Books Podcast to talk about another one. This set me up to finish reading a book in about a week, which I usually do anyway, but there is something about the time limit that adds some excitement to it for me. It reminds me of being in school and having to cram for a final, but this time it’s something I want to do and am excited to finish. We’ll be talking about Percival Everett’s “Erasure”. For me, it’s a rare situation where I’ve seen the movie before reading the book. I’ll be sure to link it when we post it. For now, I have homework to do.
That’s all for me this week. Let’s get to the picks.
