Reading Envy 049: The Legendary Cheese

Jenny sits down with two longtime members - Caroline and Holly - of the International Center of the Upstate Book Club. We talk about our favorites, least favorites, and what we love about this book club. It's been a while since there has been a Reading Envy book club episode, so please enjoy! This was recorded mid-November 2015 but was put on hold for the end of year episodes.
