Description
For Episode 87, Alli comes to Katherine Paterson’s Newbery-winning Jacob Have I Loved for the first time — and what a ride it was! This middle grade book is a story of sibling rivalry, resentment, privilege, and family responsibility. It’s also a story about learning to take responsibility for your own path… although Alli has some seriously mixed feelings about how that last part is handled. Tune in to hear her and guest Sara Hildreth take a close look at family dynamics, stumble their way through an Enneagram digression, consider Jacob Have I Loved through a feminist lens, and so much more. Sara is a reader, English teacher, and the blogger behind Fiction Matters. Follow her on Instagram (@fictionmatters) and check out her new book podcast — co-hosted by @chelseyreads from Episode 34 of SSR — Novel Pairings (@novelpairingspod).
