Episode 61 - Never as Good as the Book with Katie Blechle

On this episode, Katie Blechle, a mom and educator, talks about her true love of reading over TV, how she incorporates reading into her life as a mom, and the books about strong women that she really loves. We also go down a shared rabbit hole that’s one of my absolute favorite non-book topics.    Follow Katie on Instagram   Books mentioned in this episode:    What Betsy’s reading:  Skeleton Crew by Stephen King Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki   Books Highlighted by Katie: The Outlaw Noble Salt by Amy Harmon Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J.
