Authors We Interviewed on the Podcast Here are the books we featured on the podcast this year. See links to the author interviews. Think Like a Runner by Jeff Horowitz How to Run the Perfect Race by Matt Fitzgerald The Norwegian Method by Brad Culp The Explorer's Gene by Alex Hutchinson Ballistic by Henry Abbott Extreme Balance by Joe DeSena The Runaway Housewives of the Appalachian Trail by Kitty Robinson Fuel for Thought by Renee McGregor Don't Call it a Comeback by Keira D'Amato Lootie's World Run by Marie Leautey The Running Ground by Nicolas Thompson Angie's Top 10 Non-Fiction Reads: The Art of Memoir by Mary Karr Memoir is one of my favorite genres and this book takes a peak behind the scenes on writing an engaging memoir. In fact, Mary Karr weaves in so many personal antidotes that it doesn't feel like a how-to book at all. Some of the core principles she talks about have to do with dealing with the truth as you remember it, turning vulnerability into art, and finding your unique story. Everyone from the causal reader to someone who wants to write a memoir will enjoy this book. Awake by Jen Hatmaker I've followed Jen Hatmakes on Instagram for a number of years and she has a very funny and relatable way of sharing her life. Her latest book is a memoir and talks about the dissolution of her 25 year marriage and how she had to come awake to many important areas in her life as a result. Bad Therapy- Why The Kids aren't Growing Up by Abigail Shrier The author is an investigative journalist who argues that aspects of the mental health industry is harming American children, not helping them but over-diagnosing and over-treating normal struggles. It's important to get children the mental health help that they need but Shrier warns that normal development challenges and emotions are sometimes mislabeled as mental disorders which can lead children to adopt an “illness identity.” It Didn't Start With You -How Inherited Family Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle by Mark Wolynn This book talks about how trauma and epigenetic are linked. Trauma can change how our genes work and influence stress responses, health, and mood and these alterations can be passed down to future generations, which can help explain intergenerational trauma. This was a very eye opening book and helpful for anyone processing struggles linked to family history. The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs by Joel Salatin Since reading Michael Pollan's book, The Omnivore's Dilemma, I've been working on getting the meat our family eats from ethically sustainable sources. Joel Salatin, owner and operator of Polyface Farms, makes the case for how farming and ranching practices need to change (for the good of the environment, the animals, the farmer, and society in general). Inner Excellence by Jim Murphy This is a book that was first published back in 2009 and was updated in 2020. It has been used by many professional athletes and high achievers to develop a stronger mental and emotional game. NFL player, A.J. Brown of the Philadelphia Eagles, was filmed reading this book on the sidelines of a January 2025 playoff game and the book started selling thousands of copies. Some of the principles in the book that resonated with me were detaching self-worth from outcomes so that your identity isn't tied to results or achievements. Instead of asking, “How did I do?” Ask, “What did I learn.” Another important take-away was learning to gain control over my inner world. We don't have to believe everything our mind tells us. Yes, we should recognize emotions and thoughts but come back to our core values to develop self-mastery. Estrogen Matters -Why Taking Hormones in Menopause Can Improve Women's Well-Being and Lengthen Their Lives- Without Raising the Risk of Breast Cancer (Revised and Updated) by Avrum Bluming and Carol Tavris As a woman in perimenopause I've been educating myself on how to make this transition in life work for me. As a result I started using HRT two years ago and it has improved my life physically, mentally, and emotionally. Thankfully the FDA removed the black box warning on HRT in 2025 after years of misinformation. This book is a must read for women in their mid-30's and up, those who have experienced surgical menopause, or anyone who wants to understand the role of estrogen more completely. From Strength to Strength– Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life by Arthur C. Brooks Brooks is a Harvard professor and happiness columnist for The Atlantic. He draws on philosophy, social science, biography, and spirituality to offer a helpful roadmap for aging well in the second half of life. In order to embrace, and not fight, the inevitable decline we need to redefine success (moving away from being primarily validated by money or job titles) and look to internal measures like a deeper sense of purpose, wisdom, strong relationships, and service to others. Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobson Annie Jacobson is one of those authors from which I will read anything she writes. In the rather bleak (but fascinating) book she lays out the history of nuclear programs throughout the world and presents a scenario in which nuclear weapons are used. Spoiler alert- there are no good outcomes. Breath- The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor I've struggled with allergies since childhood, dealing with a lot of nasal congestion. As a result I was a mouth breather and this book challenged me to take a look at my breathing patterns and make some changes. Over the course of a year I trained myself to breathe through my nose during the day (but nighttime was a bigger challenge). A few months ago I started using mouth tape at night (and an airflow clip nasal dilator called Snore Less Now to open up my airway). I've experienced better mouth hygiene and deeper sleep as a result. Honorable Mentions (nonfiction) Hidden Potential by Adam Grant All the Way to the River by Elizabeth Gilbert Slow Productivity by Cal Newport Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Deibler Rose Revenge of The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green You Could Make This Place Beautiful by Maggie Smith The Next Conversation by Jefferson Fisher Angie's Top 10 Fiction Reads: The Grey Wolf by Louise Penny (#19 in the Armand Gamache series) If you enjoy mysteries and thrillers this series is excellent. I've particularly enjoyed listening to them on audiobook since I'm not a French speaker and would probably mispronounce many names and places otherwise. The Life Impossible by Matt Haig I've enjoyed every book that author Matt Haig has written and this one was no exception. The Life Impossible follows a retired math teacher named Grace who is grieving the loss of her husband and son. She receives an unexpected inheritance which forces her outside her comfort zone, helping her to deal with her past and find new purpose for the future. Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver This book is a modern retelling of Charles Dicken's David Coperfield. It follows a boy named Damon Fields who is born into poverty in modern rural Appalachia. He has a very tumultuous life particularly because of the weakness of the foster care system. The book deals with some very heavy subjects but it's ultimately a story of resilience and the power of finding hope in community and through art. The Burning White by Brent Weeks This is the fifth and final book in the Lightbringer Series, a modern fantasy set in a world governed by light and the magic of Chromaturgy. In this world, some people called drafters have the ability to harness light to create a physical substance called “luxin.” Each color has unique powers and identity and the drafter is changed over time. Red Rising Series by Pierce Brown My teens had read this series a few years ago so I was a bit late to the game. But once I finished the first book, Red Rising, I devoured the other five in this fantasy/sci-fi series and am eagerly waiting for the final book to be released next summer. The series centers on class warfare because of a rigid caste system and the main character gets involved in an attempted revolution. This fast paced series is full of action, violence and is set in space. The Measure by Nikki Erlick In this book everyone who reaches a specific age receives a box revealing their lifespan. The story follows eight people who wrestle with the decision whether to open their boxes or not and what to do with the information they get. Ultimately it's an uplifting book that encourages us to live life to the fullest. Twice by Mitch Albom This is a magical realism novel about a boy named Alfie who discovers that he gets two chances at everything in his life. It's a very engaging storyline (which kept me guessing until the end). It really made me see even more value in imperfection and that growth comes from learning. Marble Hall Murders by Anthony Horowitz This mystery follows freelance editor Susan Ryleland who finds herself unwillingly entangled in the death of an author whose book she is working on. I enjoy a mystery that keeps me guessing. The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai I enjoyed the audiobook version of this book which follows the story of Sonia and Sunny who are both Indian immigrants to the United States who are navigating love, family, country, class, and race. Trevor's Top Reads in 2025: Trevor managed to finish 41 books last year. These ones rose to the top: How the Irish Saved Civilization -The Untold Story of Ireland’s Heroic Role from the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe by Thomas Cahill. Basically, the Irish saved civilization because their monasteries preserved classical texts, learning, and book making after the fall of the Roman Empire. Irish monks later established monasteries on continental Europe which became centers of learning. American Nations -A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America by Colin Woodard. This was a paradigm shaping book, it provides the best explanation for regional differences in the USA. As You Wish -Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride (1987) by Cary Elwes. If you love the movie, listen to the audio book to Cary Elwes and other cast members share behind-the-scenes stories. The Shortest History of Ancient Rome -A Millennium of Western Civilization, from Kingdom to Republic to Empire: A Retelling for Our Times by Ross King. Trevor is a big fan of the Shortest History series because they provide a short overviews without getting too myopic or tedious. Mark Twain by Ron Chernow. This is a 1,200 page tome or 45 hours on audio book. Fun fact! Twain smoked between 22-40 cigars per day. Let’s end with some Mark Twain quotes: “The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd druther not.” “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter”. “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”  “The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them”.

Louise Penny is one of the biggest mystery novelists alive today … but it didn't start out that way. Her latest novel, The Black Wolf, is the 20th in her bestselling Armand Gamache series.

Que vous soyez amateur de thrillers psychologiques, de drames humains ou de mystères intelligents, ces trois séries disponibles sur Canal+ vous emmènent dans des paysages différents. The Tower La première saison de The Tower nous plongeait dans une enquête palpitante après une chute mystérieuse du haut d'une tour résidentielle à Londres, qui laissait derrière elle des questions troublantes et un duo d'enquêtrices complexes. La détective Sarah Collins et sa jeune collègue, Lizzie Griffiths, se retrouvaient mêlées à un réseau de secrets et de conflits éthiques qui mettaient en lumière des dysfonctionnements au sein de la police. https://youtu.be/z5bm-Eewd0I?si=rky08Z9-im2iIscL La série reprend avec Sarah Collins toujours marquée par les événements de la saison précédente. Cette fois, une affaire d'agression brutale dans un quartier populaire déclenche une nouvelle vague de tensions. Tandis que Collins cherche à dénouer une enquête tortueuse, Lizzie lutte pour s'affirmer dans sa carrière et se distancer des erreurs passées. Les deux femmes devront encore une fois jongler entre loyauté, justice et leurs convictions personnelles. [bs_show url="the-tower-2021"] Three Pines Adaptée des romans de Louise Penny, Three Pines suit l'inspecteur Armand Gamache campé par Alfred Molina, un enquêteur charismatique et réfléchi. Envoyé dans un paisible village québécois, il se retrouve confronté à des crimes troublants qui dévoilent les sombres secrets de cette petite communauté. Dans un format procédural, chaque épisode explore des histoires indépendantes tout en tissant un fil rouge autour d'un mystère central : une disparition inexpliquée qui hante Gamache. Au fil des enquêtes, Gamache se lie d'amitié avec des habitants du village, notamment Clara Morrow, une artiste locale pleine de sensibilité, et Olivier Brulé, un propriétaire de café dont le passé cache des zones d'ombre. Ces relations apportent une touche d'humanité et un contraste avec la noirceur des crimes. https://youtu.be/x11Je5RAmVQ?si=Qn-a4G2JzKeLRvYb Située dans les paysages enneigés et pittoresques du Canada, la série mêle humour absurde et noirceur dans un savant équilibre qui n'est pas sans rappeler Fargo. Les fans des romans retrouveront l'essence de l'œuvre originale, tandis que les novices seront séduits par cet univers riche. [bs_show url="three-pines"] Bête noire La saison 2 de Bête noire, le polar canadien, est enfin disponible, après une première qui explorait les conséquences d'une tragédie : une fusillade scolaire perpétrée par Jérémy, un jeune homme sans histoire. La série abordait avec une finesse rare les traumatismes laissés par cet acte, tout en tentant de comprendre les raisons qui ont conduit à un tel geste. Après les événements de la première saison, cette nouvelle édition poursuit l'exploration des répercussions à long terme sur les familles, les survivants et les institutions. Les acteurs qui ne sont pas familiers pour nous, incarnent leurs rôles avec une intensité qui résonne longtemps après chaque épisode. Dans la nouvelle saison, l'histoire se concentre sur un groupe de soutien qui se forme entre les parents des victimes et d'autres touchés indirectement par des drames similaires. Le scénario interroge les notions de pardon, de culpabilité et de résilience. En se concentrant sur les conséquences et non sur l'acte en lui-même, la série se distingue des autres thrillers psychologiques. https://youtu.be/QPSl9BeJOks?si=U_EP5MrvwKRwqz2L Direction Canal+ pour retrouver ces trois séries pleines de suspens !

Jean Brassard, Louise Penny's choice to narrate her 19th Three Pines novel, proves an inspired selection. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Robin Whitten discuss how Brassard, a native Quebecois and an award-winning actor, gets each character right. Domestic terrorism takes Armand Gamache, Jean-Guy, and Isabelle from Montreal to the Vatican and to an isolated French monastery. Brasard's accents—whether French Canadian, Italian, or continental French—create indelible characters, and his pacing and storytelling skills are stunningly good. Listen to find out what awaits Gamache in this latest memorable mystery.

Summary: Louise Penny is one of Canada's most prolific and successful authors - she writes dark, heart wrenching murders that somehow pair well with a quiet town with quaint bed and breakfasts and bistros with some of the best food ever described. Holly and Devin fell in love with the Armand Gamache detective series years ago, and today they finally get to gush about Louise and her writing for the podcast! Check out a spoiler-free LoveFest to learn why both Holly and Devin cannot get enough of these murder mysteries!  Topics Discussed: Plots (6:28): The mysteries themselves are unusual and ultimately a bit odd - no one is ever taken out by a gun in front of a security camera. This makes the books super fresh and unlike other mystery novels. Penny intends to leave the reader off-balance, and her masterful writing is intended to keep us guessing without ever making us question plausibility.  The books must be read in order because there are multi-book plotlines that investigate larger issues than each murder - corruption, racism, drug trafficking, and infrastructure neglect to name a few.  Characters (15:15): Every character, recurring or not, is flawed and therefore deeply human. As a reader, it becomes easy to empathize even with Ruth, a mean old crone alcoholic and poet (Devin's car is named Ruth after her).  The series centers around the citizens of Three Pines, a fictitious Québec town that acts as a microcosm of community everywhere.  We follow a core group of characters as they grow, evolve, live and die in Three Pines; the ultimate feeling for the reader is that they are journeying through life with friends they care about deeply.  Writing (21:12): Part of the magic of Penny is that she writes about each character as if she is in their head; if they are confident they are right, only time and the advancing plot will show us. This adds a propulsive and immersive element to the story where you as the reader feel like you're experiencing it with them as things evolve, versus being told a story.  Louise Penny may as well have been a psychologist (and one of the Three Pines residents, Myrna, actually is!) for how deeply she understands the human condition and infuses that deep compassion into her writing. Themes (27:20): Motivation: there are deep emotional and psychological motivations for all characters which drives both good and bad decisions across the series. Grief plays an especially large role, unveiling the long-term impacts of death and trauma.  Art: there is art all over this series! Ruth is a poet, Armand quotes poetry and literature freely while they investigate murder, Clara and Peter are visual artists, music features heavily throughout.  Justice: While Armand is of course a detective, the series also interrogates the true meaning of justice as a concept, pitting Armand and his team multiple times against various power structures and corrupt systems that force them to make decisions - doing what is right, what is easy, and sometimes, what is technically illegal.  Community: Yes, these are murder mystery books, but all 18 books are united by a compelling and heartwarming sense of community. The characters care about each other, about their place in the world, and about how their decisions impact others.  Details (33:56): The food!! We could talk for two hours about the food alone. Penny enlists the help of all five senses to create a vivid world that grounds the reader and makes Three Pines come to life, one croissant at a time.  Each book tends to be quite seasonal, centered on a specific time of year that adds to the tension, plot, and sense that we are experiencing life as it happens for the characters.  The police investigations are not glossed over and have many nitpicky details that brings the reader more deeply into the often confusion, dead-end exploring world of detective Gamache as he and his team solve murders.  Favorite Books (40:16): Holly: The Beautiful Mystery (Book 8) Devin: How the Light Gets In (Book 9)  Hot On the Shelf (49:14): Holly: She is a Haunting by Trang Thanh Tran Devin: Instructions for Dancing by Nicola Yoon What's Making Our Hearts Race (51:04): Holly: Andor on Disney+ Devin: Paul T.

Fans of streaming video may have noticed there has been a proliferation of Indigenous-led television and movies this year.On various platforms right now, there is a wealth of Indigenous programming, among them: Reservation Dogs, the bittersweet story of native youth growing up on an Oklahoma reservation; Dark Winds, the big-budget detective drama (executive producer Robert Redford) that takes place on a Navajo reservation; and Three Pines, based on the Chief Insp. Armand Gamache novels (by Canadian author Louise Penny), which confronts issues such as missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls and the legacy of residential schools.To get some perspective on how Indigenous people are interpreting all this mainstream content, this week's episode of Niigaan & the Lone Ranger (the podcast hosted by Free Press columnists Niigaan Sinclair and Dan Lett) features an interview with Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., director of the School of Gender, Race and Nations at Portland State University and a noted expert in Indigenous film and television.Van Alst talks about the enormous cultural value for Indigenous people of seeing their own people and telling their own stories. He also noted Hollywood, in particular, still has a way to go in its treatment of Indigenous stories.The panel digs deep into the reasons why many Indigenous people around the world are protesting the next chapter in director James Cameron's Avatar movie franchise, which seems destined to become one of the highest-grossing films of all times. Despite its commercial success, Van Alst said the film is universally disliked by Indigenous people for its “settler fantasy” motif.Also this week, we get a very special edition of the Storytellers, featuring none other than Jeanette Sinclair (Niigaan's mother), who describes her son's epic performance as Joseph in a school Christmas concert.Niigaan & the Lone Ranger will be taking next week off and will return in the first week of January.

Esta es una muestra de "Una ofensa mortal (Inspector Armand Gamache 12)". La versión completa tiene una duración total de 16 h 6 min. Encuentra este audiolibro completo en: https://bit.ly/unaofensamortal-audiolibroNarrado por: Javier LacroixEl antiguo inspector jefe Armand Gamache se ha pasado toda su carrera cazando asesinos y luchando contra la corrupción. Ahora, como nuevo comandante de la academia de la Sûreté, tiene la oportunidad de combatir las corruptelas y la brutalidad que se ha extendido como una plaga por este cuerpo policial. Sin embargo, tras encontrar asesinado a un antiguo colega y profesor de la academia, junto a un misterioso mapa de Three Pines, Gamache se ve ante una tarea aún más dura. Cuando la sospecha recae sobre el propio Gamache y su posible implicación en el crimen, la frenética búsqueda de respuestas lleva la investigación hasta el pueblo de Three Pines, donde está a punto de desvelarse una serie de secretos devastadores... La crítica ha dicho...«Profunda, grandiosa y extraordinaria de principio a fin [...]. Un milagro.»The Washington Post «Ingeniosa... Impactante... Mágica.»The New York Times «El estilo elíptico de Penny funciona de manera brillante en una novela que combina la corrupción policial de nuestros días con la tragedia.»The Sunday Times «Una ambientación envolvente y una narración empapada de búsqueda espiritual [...]. Penny combina un argumento inteligente con unas descripciones evocadoras y preciosas.»Daily Express «Una ofensa mortal triunfa en todos los niveles.»St. Louis Post-Dispatch «Una ofensa mortal es una de sus mejores obras, pero pienso mismo cada vez que termino un misterio Gamache.»The Washington Post «Un misterio cautivador y un rico drama humano en el que ningún personaje es del todo bueno ni malo y todos son capaces de inspirar empatía.»Booklist «Penny mantiene a sus lectores haciendo cábalas hasta el final.»The Guardian «Una ambientación espectacular. [...] Impresionante.»The Times «Una novela compleja que aborda temas universales como la compasión, la debilidad ante la tentación, el perdón y el peligro de caer en la desesperación y el cinismo ante demonios en apariencia insuperables.»Publishers Weekly «Penny, que eleva el listón con cada nuevo título de esta soberbia serie, siempre ha mezclado asesinato y corrupción con cuestiones de moralidad [...]. Lo hace con su habitual talento para crear un argumento cautivador, personajes ricos, una prosa llamativa y cuestiones que llevan a reflexionar sobre la piedad, la malicia y las contradicciones de la raza humana.»Richmond-Times Dispatch «Esta serie domina las listas de best-sellers y de premios por un buen motivo. Penny cuenta historias potentes sobre el daño y la sanación del corazón humano, aligeradas con afecto, humor y (gracias al cielo) redención.»Charlotte Observer «Penny escribe con gracia e inteligencia sobre personas complejas que luchan con emociones complejas, aunque su mayor don es la asombrosa capacidad para describir lo que quizá parezca indescriptible: el juego de luces, el sonido de la música celestial, una quieta sensación de paz.»The New York Times Book Review© 2022, Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial, S.

Esta es una muestra de "Una revelación brutal (Inspector Armand Gamache 5)". La versión completa tiene una duración total de 16 h 1 min. Encuentra este audiolibro completo en https://bit.ly/3zdNqUANarrado por: Javier LacroixUna noche fría y oscura, dos hombres conversan frente al hogar de una cabaña oculta entre la espesura de un bosque de Quebec. Uno de ellos relata una aciaga historia, de dimensiones casi míticas, que culmina en el caos y la violencia. Al día siguiente, la aparición del cadáver de uno de los contertulios conmociona a los residentes de la apacible localidad de Three Pines, cerca de la frontera con Vermont. Desde Montreal acude el afamado inspector Armand Gamache, jefe del Departamento de Homicidios de la Sûreté du Québec, y su equipo de colaboradores, que se encuentran con un cuerpo manchado de sangre que nadie parece reconocer, lo último que uno esperaría en un pueblo que se diría salido de una fábula infantil. Sin embargo, incluso en las comunidades de apariencia más bucólica, la calidez de sus habitantes, la solidaridad entre vecinos y el ambiente acogedor de sus moradas pueden esconder secretos inconfesables y episodios tenebrosos. Así pues, desvelar el reverso de la idílica postal supondrá para Gamache uno de los desafíos más apasionantes de su carrera.© 2022, Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial, S. A.

Bienvenidos a El Librero.

Seit einem Jahr genießt Armand Gamache, ehemaliger Chief Inspector der Sûreté du Québec, seinen vorzeitigen Ruhestand in Three Pines. Das Zepter in der berühmten Mordkommission hat er an die nächste Generation übergeben. Doch als man ihm den Posten des Chief Superintendent anbietet, wird er auch von seinen engsten Vertrauten Isabelle Lacoste und Jean-Guy Beauvoir gedrängt zurückzukehren. Gamache hat eigentlich nicht vor, den Dienst wieder aufzunehmen, aber kann er die Füße stillhalten? Zumal eines Nachmittags der neunjährige Laurent Lepage tot im Straßengraben aufgefunden wird. Scheinbar ein Fahrradunfall, aber Gamache hat daran so seine Zweifel. Der Junge mit der blühenden Phantasie war erst am Vortag mit der wahnwitzigen Geschichte über eine riesige Kanone und ein Monster im Wald in Oliviers Bistro geplatzt. Alle in Three Pines haben darüber gelacht. Wenig später machen Gamache und Jean-Guy einen schrecklichen Fund im Wald. Und Gamache wird klar: Dieses eine Mal hätten sie Laurent glauben müssen. Über die Autorin: Louise Penny, 1958 in Toronto geboren, arbeitete nach ihrem Studium der Angewandten Kunst 18 Jahre lang als Rundfunkjournalistin und Moderatorin in ganz Kanada. Mit dem Schreiben begann sie erst spät. Ihr erster Roman wurde weltweit als Entdeckung des Jahres gefeiert, und auch die folgenden Gamache-Krimis wurden vielfach ausgezeichnet und eroberten die Bestsellerlisten. Dass Louise Penny einen Ort erfand, an den sie sich zurückziehen kann, wenn es ihr schlecht geht, Freunde, die für sie da sind, und einen Ermittler, in den sie sich verlieben könnte, macht den Reiz ihrer Krimis aus. Louise Penny lebt in Sutton bei Québec, einem kleinen Städtchen, das Three Pines zum Verwechseln ähnelt.

Summary: Welcome to our first episode! Holly and Devin come together to discuss modern retellings of classic stories. They compare and contrast each book with the original text, and evaluate how the authors wove the classic plot lines and characters into a modern retelling. Holly and Devin share books they're excited to read next, and then dive into pop culture spiciness to wrap things up.  Topics Discussed: The Heart (1:47): Devin shares her thoughts on Ayesha and Last by Uzma Jalaluddin, a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Her key takeaways included:  The structures of Austen-era society aligned almost perfectly with Muslim modern society including family involvement in love and marriage. Jalaluddin went further than Austen with harsh critiques of modern society's racism, sexism, fatphobia and xenophobia.    Ayesha at Last takes a plotline folks have read and watched a million times and uses it as a gateway into a culture and ideologies with which some might be unfamiliar.   The Dagger (13:13): Holly shares her perspective on The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins, a retelling of Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë. Her key takeaways included: The Southern Gothic rendering of the haunting classic featuring transgressive thoughts, desires, and impulses was a fresh but resonant take on Jane Eyre. Hawkins leveraged a “Desperate Housewives” dynamic with women in the neighborhood to explore the fragile social order and Jane's desperation to belong. Jane becomes intrigued by Bea (the deceased wife) and her rags-to-riches tale even as she remains haunted by her own past, finding herself working to, in some ways, become Bea.  Hot Off the Shelf (31:30): Holly: Scarlet, book two of The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer Devin: A Better Man, book 15 of the Armand Gamache series by Louise Penny What's Making Our Hearts Race (34:27): Holly: “The Vow”, series on HBO about cult NXIVM and leader Keith Raniere Devin: “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” the most recent Marvel film released Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.

Join Liz and Rach for some book banter! Today's book banter is on what we have been reading lately. Our next podcast will be on the duology The Wrath and the Dawn and The Rose and the Dagger by Renee Adieh. Here are the books we discuss on today's episode:Lilac Girls by Martha Hall KellyAnne of Avonlea by L.M. MontgomeryThe Road Back to You by Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile**More analysis on this book in Episode 14 with Stephanie Price from her instagram account Because My Mother Read!**The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny (book 5 in the Armand Gamache series)The Guest List by Lucy FoleyIn Pursuit of the Painter by Ashtyn Newbold (book 3 in the Sons of Somerset series, but Rach read this one by itself!) Here is the full quote that Rach didn't finish in the episode from Anne of Avonlea:“November is usually such a disagreeable month...as if the year had suddenly found out that she was growing old and could do nothing but weep and fret over it. This year is growing old gracefully...just like a stately old lady who knows she can be charming even with gray hair and wrinkles. We've had lovely days and delicious twilights.”In the words of Holbrook Jackson, "Never put off till tomorrow the book you can read today." Thanks y'all! Now go stick your nose in a book. 

This is Play It Forward. Real people. Real stories. The struggle to Play It Forward. Episode 295 with television, movie and voiceover actor Robert Bathurst. You're a coward. Time and again, as the New Year approaches, that charge is leveled against Armand Gamache. It starts innocently enough. While the residents of the Québec village of Three Pines take advantage of the deep snow to ski and toboggan, the Chief Inspector finds his holiday with his family interrupted by a simple request. He's asked to provide security for a visiting Professor of Statistics at the nearby university. While he is perplexed until Gamache starts looking into Professor Abigail Robinson and discovers an agenda so repulsive he begs the university to cancel the lecture. They refuse, citing academic freedom, and accuse Gamache of censorship and intellectual cowardice. Before long, Professor Robinson's views start seeping into conversations. Spreading and infecting. When a murder is committed it falls to Armand Gamache, to investigate the crime as well as this extraordinary popular delusion. Once again Louise Perry has placed her character Inspector Ganache in a moral quandary. This timely novel will delight fans of the Canadian mystery novelist with 17 bestselling books. Narrated by noted actor, Robert Bathurst, best known in the U.S. for his role as Sir Anthony Strallan in Downton Abbey, the THE MADNESS OF CROWDS Audiobook, features Bathurst's beautifully nuanced performance. Winner of the 2020 Audie Award (audiobooks awards) for Best Male Narrator, Bathurst has been lending his inimitable style to seven Louise Penny novels in the Inspector Gamache Series.

Come ogni domenica, anche oggi la nostra Barbara ha scelto due libri tra quelli custoditi dagli scaffali del Covo. E sono due storie gialle un po' particolari. La prima è, in realtà, una raccolta di racconti nata dall'inventiva di una delle maestre del genere: Agatha Christie. E scommetto che pochi abbiano incontrato prima il "genio" risolutore del mitico Parker Pyne che, come motto ha quello di rendere felici chi non lo è. E vi assicuriamo che lo fa in modo molto curiosi.La seconda, invece, nasce dalla penna di Louise Penny che vede il suo commissario Armand Gamache alle prese con un'indagine che non scherza e con la primavera in Québec. Ma che potrà avere mai di così terribile una primavera in Québec?Qui tutti i libri: https://ladradilibri.com/ladri-di-domenica-8/
