Description

This week's mini has some themed book news. What's an embargo? You're about to find out. Big companies bum us out, but we keep punching up until we reach the obvious ending. And Corinne travelled all the way to Madison, Wi to talk with Gretchen at A Room of One's Own Books about Bookstores Against Borders and how bookstores make your community. We lied in the episode and said that next week we'd be reading Notes of a Crocodile by Qiu Miaojin, which we'll actually be reading in a couple more weeks. NEXT week we'll be discussing Trick Mirror by Jia Tolentino.
