Chapter 30: Songs in Ursa Major by Emma Brodie

What this episode covers

This week we celebrate entering our 30s! Well, 30 episodes. In our catch up, Molly shares an intense work moment, Steph talks about a great conversation with a friend writing a memoir, and Kaitlin gives a live text message update on her house hunt. Then we deep dive on a book we all really enjoyed, Songs in Ursa Major. We talk about the appeal of stories set in New England seaside towns, the joy of reading about generations of women living under one roof, the strong side characters in this cast, and Molly's penchant for men who play the piano. We also compare Songs in Ursa Major to another favorite, Daisy Jones & the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Kaitlin also tells us about the time she took a query letter course with the author, Emma Brodie. We're taking a small break while Molly is on an international vacation, so our next new episode will be Thursday, June 6, 2024. In the meantime, you can follow along with everything we're reading on Instagram, @plansarebooked. If you'd like to get in touch, write to us at [email protected].
