035 Heather Babcock and The Measure

from Life of Plenty · host Plenty Downtown Bookshop

In this episode of the Life of Plenty Podcast, Lisa and Ashley discuss meaningful books with Heather Babcock, formerly of Whirlwind Book Bar in Oklahoma. When Whirlwind closed, inventory and chairs from the store made their way to Plenty, so the store has lived on here in Cookeville. Heather shared some of the books that have impacted her, starting Nikki Erlick's The Measure, a novel that asks if it was possible, would you want to know exactly how long you had to live? That question of time became more personal after she received a stage four cancer diagnosis.   Other books discussed include The Harry Potter series, The Little Prince, The Little Liar,  A Man Called Ove, and Radical Acts of Love, all of which have held meaning to Heather during different aspects of her life.
