Reading Envy Readers discussion

Jenny asked previous podcast guests to chat about their top reads of the year, whether or not they were published in 2021. Jenny also chimes in with her own obscure categories. Please enjoy hearing from Tina, Tom, Lindy, Trish, Andrew, Kim, Jeff, Elizabeth, Audrey, Scott, Robin, Mina, Emily, Chris, Nadine, and Ross.

It was great hearing the wide range of recommendations shared. In particular, I liked hearing how many people mentioned When the Light of the World was Subdued Our Songs Came Through. This was a really fun anthology to explore via the readalong, even for someone who's new to poetry. I just finished my first collection inspired by it: When My Brother Was an Aztec by Natalie Diaz. All I can say about it is...wow! I was completely floored by these poems and wanted to recommend the collection to those who enjoyed the readalong or Reading Envy listeners in general.

Thanks Jenny for another great year of the podcast and the reading discussions/TBR additions it inspires!

I love Natalie Diaz's work so much! Her more recent collection is also excellent.

There are so many great suggestions! I may make this my list to choose from throughout the year.

Thank you, Jenny and everyone who participated. All the best in 2022!
