American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins

I’ve listened, discussed & read the buzz around the book. Check Out Theses Articles & Commentary First, I encourage you to read this Commentary: ‘American Dirt’ is what happens when Latinos are shut out of the book industry. Here is a particularly scathing review from the New York Times. “The real failures of the book, however, have little to do with the writer’s identity and everything to do with her abilities as a novelist.” There are some very important points…
Frankly in Love by David Yoon
Frankly in Love by David Yoon is one of my favorite audiobooks ever. This wonderful story kept me company in my earbuds while I stained a fence for five hours. The narration is excellent.
