Listen "Episode 8: Excellent Potatoes, Terrible Draft Decisions."
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to I Reckon I’ll Read It, a podcast where two Okie gals talk books, share recs, and don’t hold back on their mighty big opinions. Join Beccah and Summer in some good-old-fashioned book talk.
This week, we kick things off with another Reading Roundup: two books we’ve finished, two we’re currently reading, and two that are up next. This episode we lean into the season with some more Nonfiction November picks, Native American Heritage Month recs… and, yes, even more vampires. Then, we draft our ideal literary Thanksgiving dinner guests, where you know chaos will ensue. Not everyone makes the final cut, so be ready to defend your favorites.
