Reading Envy 060: A Good Era for Communists

Jenny is joined at the Reading Envy pub by Rose Davis, one generation removed from a previous guest! We cover a lot of ground, historically and geographically, from moody moors to being raised by vampires for political reasons to whether or not an Oprah Book Club sticker makes us more or less interested to read a book.

Reading Envy 027: A Conference of Librarians

What do you call a gathering of librarians? The ALA Think Tank group in Facebook recently had this discussion (you need a Facebook account to see it).  Jenny recently attended the Association for College and Research Libraries Conference in Portland, Oregon, and asked the librarians she met what they had read lately. We decided to make this a bonus episode of the podcast. Some of the members of Jenny's family also contributed. You will probably be impressed by the wide range of what librarians read.
