Episode 61: What We Read (or should have read) in High School

Happy 2020, Sapiophiles! We're back for a new decade of episodes! As it has been an entire decade since we finished college, we thought we'd take a look back at how the things we read, learned, and discussed in school affected us. This week, we are breaking down the books we read (or should have read) in High School. What themes pop up often, and how effective are they when filtered through the teenage mind? Is the standard "high school reading list" the best way to impart these lessons? How might we change the curriculum? How do the lessons in these books take on new meanings as we get older? Join us as we dive into literature and the teenage mind, share our favorite quotes and themes, and think back to our early reading experiences! And don't worry if you haven't read all these books... this is accessible and understandable for you as well!
