Readerly Report Book Club: The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker

Published on: 18th April, 2019

On this episode of The Readerly Report podcast, Gayle and Nicole talk about the myth (?) of the sophomore writing slump and our admiration for authors who can write a book while doing another job. We also talk backlist love and hold our book club discussion about The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker. We thought this would be a short-ish show, but it turns out that we had a lot to say!
