In Episode 6 of Shmindle Shmumlimited Amity, Steph, and Lauren discuss a different kind of book for them - The 100 Years of Lenin and Margot by Marianne Cronin. Still available on Amazon's Kindle Unlimited platform, this book doesn't follow the typical romance or rom-com style of their normal books but does provoke a lot of thoughtful conversation. The trio ends with sharing what paintings they would add to a gallery about their lives. #bookstagram #books #booklover #reading #bookstagrammer #bookaddict #bookreview #readersofinstagram #booknerd #read #bookcommunity #bookblogger #booksofinstagram #booklovers #instabook #reader #bookaholic #bookclub #kindleunlimitedbooks #kindlebooks #podcast #podcasting #podcastersofinstagram #amazonprime #newepisode #applepodcasts #podcasters #applepodcast #newpodcast #spotifypodcast
