Podcasts about wolves i'm home

Sorry for my subpar audio, Glenn and Cadence; we'll be back to our crystal-clear selves next episode. In this episode, we talk about the incredibly complex and moving novel Tell The Wolves I'm Home; Sarah tries to drink gin, but runs out; Miles Davis seeks connection, love, and acceptance from us; we have epiphanies; we really like this book.

It's our first bonus episode! And with no other than our favorite book lover, Ashley Spivey! We just couldn't get enough of her. Today we are talking all things the Bachelor (Becca thinks someone should write a dystopian book about what happens behind the scenes), books (including her favorite book instagrammers - get a notepad ready!), and seriously the weirdest questions you guys have ever asked (like..."Have you ever seen Leonardo Dicaprio from your apartment?").  We had a blast recording this episode with the help of a few margaritas. Make sure to follow Ashley at @ashleyspivey and join her book club!  Books mentioned The Dinner List by Rebecca Serle Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt The Sun is Also A Star by Nicola Yoon Can't get enough Bad On Paper?

We are starting in London, then heading to Croatia, and ending the trip in Tuscany. I am looking for books set in these places. I typically read contemporary fiction and psychological thrillers. I gravitate towards realistic - sorry, no Game of Thrones ;). I also enjoy a good memoir. Thank you so much for your recommendations! (FYI, some favorites: Tell the Wolves I'm Home, All the Ugly and Wonderful Things, Dark Places, Burial Rites - thanks to you two!, The Poisonwood Bible, Dear Fang With Love) --Karoline   2. Hi there! I'm having my first child, a boy, in August 2017. I'm not with the father (who will remain uninvolved), the baby was unplanned, and I will be transitioning from a full time job in downtown Nashville to a remote position in a tiny town in Ohio. I'm looking for books applicable to my situation (early thirties, single motherhood, liberal and cognizant of the need to raise a thoughtful, independent thinking, and respectful white son who is being born during a time when the country is under terrifying leadership). Fiction or non-fiction welcome! I'm a big fan of the site and can't wait to hear your suggestions. --Amanda   3. Hi! I'm a college professor and my wife and I are expecting a baby in July, so I'll have a semester off for the first time in a long time. While I'm sure most of it will be spent sleepless with a baby, I'm also hoping to get in some good reading for fun. In the summer, I tend to love ridiculous sun-soaked literary fiction like The Vacationers and Seating Arrangements. Otherwise, I read/listen to a lot of sci-fi/fantasy and LGBTQ lit. I loved the Argonauts and would love to read more about queer families or parenting. I also recently read The Expanse series and All the Birds in the Sky. What should I read while I'm home with a little one to prevent me from being lonely and crazy? --Nikki   4. My boyfriend is suuuuper into Star Wars. We first bonded over a love of reading, but the vast majority of his already-read pile is Star Wars novels - and there's nothing wrong with that, but I've been enjoying trying to expand his palate. He claims he'll try anything, just never knew where to start, and has already borrowed the Lunar Chronicles from me and really loved it. I also gave him Night Circus (because it's my favorite), but that one seemed to go over less well - his comment was "I can see why you love it so much." The thing I'm noticing, however, is that my personal collection leans much more towards fantasy and fairy tale retellings than sci fi, and I was wondering if you had any ideas of sci fi that *isn't* Star Wars that he might like. He especially enjoys explorations of people in the Empire, I know he was really excited for the recent book about Thrawn, and he loves Lost Stars by Claudia Grey. Thanks in advance! --Anne   5. I have a yen to read more short stories, but I am finding myself at my wit's end trying to find any good collections that suit my reading interests. I really fell in love with short stories recently reading "Diving Belles" by Lucy Wood, and then I absolutely loved "American Housewife" by Helen Ellis. Both these collections contained relatively short, engaging short stories. I think the common factor is that they are primarily about women, and are thoroughly charming. There is darkness without being too much of a downer, but they are not sappy "Chicken Soup for the Soul" type reads, which I don't judge, but don't enjoy. I don't know if I have far too particular tastes, or I just don't know where to look next. I tried to read some Neil Gaiman short stories and I'm not really thrilled so far, although I am not giving up yet! Help! I don't even know where to look next. Kind regards, --Eliza   6. Hello! My older sister recently asked me for book recommendations because she feels like she doesn't have any hobbies. She is in a very different place in life than I am, so I'm not sure what to suggest. She works, is married, and has three kids, all under the age of 8, so she doesn't have a ton of free time. I think the last time she read fiction was 12 years ago, when we were living together and I had my books all over the apartment. Back then, she enjoyed historical fiction set in South Asia (e.g. The Twentieth Wife and The Feast of Roses by Indu Sundaresan). She and her husband are now in the process of building a house, and she has always been very interested in interior design (she loves Pinterest and tells me I should have throw pillows). She also loves to cook and she took a baking class once. Any ideas? Her birthday is coming up in July so I hope you can answer before then. Thanks so much! --Sel   7. Hello! I'm a little worried that my request may be kind of tricky. I'd like to buy my Dad a book for his upcoming birthday. The problem is that while he enjoys reading, he is prefers short novels with straight-forward writing styles. I think that this is because he's dyslexic and gets a little overwhelmed when texts are too "flowery" in their writing style or have a reputation for being "intellectual." He tends to only read a couple books a year (usually the ones I give him) so I feel a bit of pressure! I've had a lot of luck in the past with John Steinbeck (he liked the Pearl but loved Of Mice and Men). He enjoys books with historical elements. He's from Northern California and he gets a kick out of reading books set in landscapes that he knows and loves. Are there books out there that fit some of these guidelines? I know that Steinbeck's canon has a lot of books with these elements, but I don't think my Dad will sit through East of Eden or the Grapes of Wrath, and I'd like to try something a little different. Thank you so much! --Amris   8. I love reading stories about siblings, particularly twins. Got any suggestions? Thanks! --Jonathan     Books Discussed Ruin of a Rake by Cat Sebastian (out August 22 2017) Behind the Throne KB Wagers Girl at War by Sara Novic NW by Zadie Smith Operating Instructions by Anne Lamott The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson Touched by an Alien by Gini Koch What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours by Helen Oyeyemi Saga Vol 1 by Brian K Vaughan and Fiona Staples The Collapsing Empire by John Scalzi Tender by Sofia Samatar Single Carefree Mellow by Katherine Heiny The Painted Veil by W.

Host Cyd Oppenheimer talks with author Carol Rifka Brunt about her novel Tell the Wolves I'm Home ("I don't really like villains in books") and guest readers Deborah Cantrell and Sarah Woodford join Oppenheimer to discuss innocence lost, negative space, and the interplay of love, jealousy, and need.

Tell the Wolves I'm Home, author Carol Rifka Brunt's first novel, is multi-faceted: it's about different kinds of love. It's about siblinghood, and growing up. It's about the early stages of the AIDS epidemic in the US. There's a lot going on here, to which we add the requisite discussion about pizza-making, podcasting, and how actors remember all those lines.
