43: Die Bücher, die unseren Sommer gut gemacht haben

Um ehrlich zu sein, wäre unser Lesesommer beinahe ins Wasser gefallen. Denn es gab ein Buch, das die Latte so hoch gehängt hat, dass wir schon dachten, dass wir in kein anderes Buch mehr reinfinden. Kennst Du das? Am Ende haben wir aber doch einiges Gutes gelesen. Zusammen über 27 Bücher! In der neuen Podcastfolge tauchen wir ein in post-apokalyptische Welten, sprechen über einen Roman, der uns wie ein warmer Mantel umhüllt (Tom Lake von Ann Patchett) und natürlich über Fourth Wing / Flammengeküsst von Rebecca Yarros. Das ist das Buch, das uns (und die internationale Bücherwelt) den ganzen Sommer über beschäftigt hat und uns auch immer noch in den Sinn kommt. Hör doch mal rein in diese neue Folge!

Catching Up with Liz and Amy

In this episode Dr. Liz Stephens and Amy Stockwell chat about various fascinating topics that include the frustrations of low blood sugars, the new Dexcom 7, the pending holidays and must read books by some of our favorite authors! During the episode we mention a few things that I want to clarify for those who get confused...

First, Liz refers to a recent episode of the podcast (and fantastic resource) Diabetes Connections with author Stacey Simms who talks in depth about the dexcom 7.

Liz also recommends the book These Precious Days by one of our favorite authors, Ann Patchett, who is the co-owner of the amazing Parnassus Books in Nashville, TN, a must visit for any of you who live in the area.

Finally, I embarrass myself by butchering the title of Barbara Kingsolver's latest novel Demon Copperhead. One of my favorite books of the year!

We'll be back after the holidays with more compelling conversations, stay tuned!

EP2: New mysteries, re-visiting Amor Towles, romance novels in the Indian diaspora - and why are there no Thanksgiving books?

In this episdoe, just back from the New England Crime Bake, Hannah and Sam discuss the mysteries they're reading (not "sexy mysteries"), Sam's dip into "The Lincoln Highway," the new Louise Erdrich (Hannah's first!), romance novels set in the Indian Diaspora (with a segue into "Never Have I Ever"), the new Ann Patchett, and then a bunch of stuff about why there aren't any big Thanksgiving books or really any cultural artifacts.

Oh, and Ursula Le Guin's book is called "No Time to Spare" and Louise Erdich's is called "Future Home of the Living God" (which Sam was not even close to getting right in real time).

An Evening with Ann Patchett -- Dinner in the Library 2017

Celebrated author, literature champion, and bookstore owner Ann Patchett electrifies the audience as she describes her evolving relationships with various books, ranging from classics by Leo Tolstoy and John Updike to more contemporary works by Min Jin Lee (“Pachinko”), Matthew Desmond (“Evicted”) and Ta-Nehisi Coates (”Between the World and Me”), among others. Patchett reads both for pleasure and for business, as the co-owner and buyer for Parnassus Books in Nashville. Why would a best-selling author bother with opening a book store in 2011, when all of the others in her hometown had closed? Because, she says, she couldn’t bear to live in a city without one so she and a partner opened their own! And, as she tells here, Parnassus Books has been a huge success. Patchett is the featured speaker of the 2017 Dinner in the Library event at UC San Diego. Series: "Writers" [Humanities] [Show ID: 32700]

Episode 15: Ann Patchett + J. Courtney Sullivan (September 19, 2016)

On the publication date of her seventh novel Commonwealth, author and bookseller Ann Patchett (Bel Canto, Run, State of Wonder, etc.) launched the book onstage with her friend J. Courtney Sullivan (The Engagements, etc.). The conversation touched on the joys and pitfalls of first chapters, Ann's mother's take on the new novel ("None of it happened and all of it is true"), the freedom Patchett learned from Catholicism, engaging with the Nashville community as a retailer vs. as an artist, and a lot of really great book recommendations.
