Quick Summaries:
My Take: These books were fascinating to read. I was captivated by Reading People, and I learned quite a bit about my own personality, especially in the chapter on highly sensitive people. I'd Rather Be Reading was a playful and interesting examination of the reading life and its manifestations. My conclusion: I loved both of these books, and they were so fun to discuss with my podcast co-hosts. It's fascinating to think about your personality, and it can be a helpful way to connect better to loved ones and to live a more fulfilling life. The bookish essays within I'd Rather Be Reading were such a joy for my book-loving heart. Podcast Highlights: It was both fun and illuminating to discuss the books (and our personalities!) with Jen and Sara. We learned all sorts of things about ourselves, and it was such a joy to explore our bookish loves in our conversation together.
