Anne, what was the book you read when your son was sick? You mentioned it in your book. You took it with you because that was what was on your nightstand at the time.
Anne! A big shout out for adding me to your friends list!!! I am so grateful! Your podcast is wonderful!!!
Thanks for the add! I've been binge listening to What Should I Read Next this week, and now my "To Read" list is out of control haha!
Thanks for adding me Anne - and Happy Anniversary. I also want to thank you for creating a podcast that is fun and accessible. So many are...pompous :-) I like to read ALL sorts of sorts, not just the high-brow "Let them know I am an intellect" stuff! I don't feel alone anymore in my love and nerdom!
