Chapter 128: We Burned So Bright by T.J. Klune

from Plans Are Booked · host Molly Galler, Stephanie Blackburn, & Kaitlin Mattison

This week we're discussing a novella with a premise that really made us think. We chat about putting ourselves in the shoes of these characters, how we might react in this intense situation, the passages that felt like meditations on resilience, and why it's important that you save reading the acknowledgements until the very end. In our catch up this week, Kaitlin recaps Newport Folk Fest and eating her weight in lobster rolls, Molly shares about her trip to New York City and falling in love with Madam George's, and Steph clues us into some drama at the bookstore surrounding a novel based in a north shore town. In what we're reading this week, Steph finishes The Wild Beneath by Kelly Anderson and has us giggling about mermen, Molly devours Lena Dunham's memoir Famesick, and Kaitlin is completely reeled into The Open Era by Edward Schmit.
