What is your favorite “snack” book --- a book that is great “because no matter what is going on, you can pick it up and enjoy it even if it's only a chapter or two.”The bookstore owners fully embraced the concept of a snack book. Well, with the exception of Emma who confessed she does not pick books up and down, unlike her partner Sam who has multiple books going at all times. So Emma used this question as a reason to reference Shirley Jackson again. Specific book recommendations from all the booksellers included the Best American Series (essays, fiction, travel), Mythologies by Roland Barthes, and We are Never Meeting in Real Life by Samantha Irby.Shelf Help is a podcast where booksellers help you answer one of life's trickier  - and we'd argue extremely important - questions: what should you read next?  If you've got a reading dilemma, you can email us a question or voice memo at shelfhelpuv@gmail.com. We're here to help your shelves. Shelf Help is a collaboration between the Book Jam, a nonprofit designed to inspire readers; CATV Upper Valley media community (NOW LOCATED AT JAM, Junction Arts & Media); three Upper Valley bookstores: Yankee Bookshop in Woodstock, VT; the Norwich Bookstore in Norwich, VT; and Still North Books & Bar in Hanover, NH.

I take a back seat as Rocky and Caleb talk about something I have absolutley no knowledge in, Punk Rock music. These two are punk rockers to the core and it really shows. You see, these two have a pretty strange connection to each other. They both had the chance to meet one of their favorite punk bands, NOFX, just hours apart from each other, but had two vastly different experiences. One lived the punk dream, the other one, well.....

Cody is joined by podcaster/comedian Kristin Lytie and podcast host/improviser Eric Scull to discuss the intricacies of British aristocracy as they pertain to the realm of Belgian horticulturalists and polite criticism of a Dame in Her Majesty’s literary service. You can find your copy of Passenger to Frankfurt in the furthest-back part of the Agatha Christie display at your local Barnes and Noble.    'Passenger to Frankfurt' by Agatha Christie   Christie's superb stand-alone mystery, Passenger to Frankfurt, is a true masterwork of surprise and suspense, as a diplomat comes to the aid of a terrified woman in an airport, only to find that his identity has been stolen and his life is suddenly in serious jeopardy.   Sir Stafford Nye's flight home from Malaya takes an unprecedented twist when a young woman confides in him that someone is trying to kill her. In a moment of weakness, he agrees to lend her his passport. Unwittingly, the diplomat has put his own life on the line.   When he meets the mystery woman again, she is a different person, and he finds himself drawn into a battle against an invisible—and altogether more dangerous—enemy. . . .   Show Notes:   Currently Reading: ’Speaker for the Dead‘ by Orson Scott Card ‘The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl’ by Issa Rae ‘You Can’t Touch My Hair: And Other Things I Still Have to Explain’ by Phoebe Robinson ‘We are Never Meeting in Real Life’ by Samantha Irby   Topics: trains, Manhattans, 27 Hitlers, The Parent Trap, aristocracy, posture play, The Mockingjay, conspiracy, Alzheimer's, the news.   Follow TOMEFOOLERY for information about upcoming episodes & books: @Tomefoolery and Facebook.com/Tomefoolery.

  2017’s been hard. We didn’t make things any better by reading Beloved. We needed some cheering up, so we decided to read Samantha Irby’s darkly funny We Are Never Meeting in Real Life. Listen in for a discussion of Midwestern college life, evil cats and Dani’s aversion to strangers’ bodily fluids. Next month, read up and tune in when we discuss Hunger, by Roxane Gay. And don’t forget to share your thoughts in the next bonus episode. We want to know: How do you acquire the books you read? Buy new? Buy used? Library? Other … less legal means?

Hello loves! We're back and talking about We Are Never Meeting in Real Life by Samantha Irby. We discuss: the unsustainable magic that is la croix, helen the spunky devil spawn, samantha irby's balance of humor and seriousness, the pacing of the reveal of Mavis and her relationship, how hard it would be to suddenly be a parent and role model to tweens in the middle of your adulthood, olivia's hatred of bathroom humor, our moonspired dreams, how much we shape people, white people picnics, and mooooore. Olivia drinks: water Ashley drinks: water We read: We Are Never Meeting in Real Life by Samantha Irby Up next: The Glass Universe by Dava Sobel

OMGEEEZ! We're back, and this epi we're talking about The Book of Joan by Lidia Yuknavitch. You're in luck because we talk about: the power of wine stoppers (they work!), cutting through soft skin with wire (it's a thing in the book!), the constant action in the story, our confusion with the place name CIEL (newsflash: it's French), the fact that the story was toooooo much for us, all the positive reviews, comparison to Marilynne Robinson's book (PS It's Housekeeping, NOT Homecoming), how the book continues for what feels like forever, "womb logic," some fucked up transphobic shit-- oof, in short, we get sassy. Olivia drinks: a sauv blanc named AVA GRACE (it's from Whole Foods obvi) Ashley drinks: weeks-old rose with a tiny bit of carbonation left thanks to that mystical wine stopper We read: The Book of Joan by Lidia Yuknavitch Up next: We are Never Meeting in Real Life by Samantha Irby Music by: Matt Costa!

"My book is about eating snacks and being mad. I wrote my book because I’d already written one and that was pretty fun. I was inspired by revenge; I want everyone who ever doubted me or was ever mean to me to see that I have a book in bookstores and feel really bad about their own lives."
