Welcome to the “Nothing is Wrong with You” book podcast.Today, we talk about our relationship with the literary canon and consider its importance but also its ramifications on us as readers.  We ask who gets to decide what books “matter” and unpack the shame that can come from not liking/understanding/caring about books other people tell us we “should” read.Book we recommend, The Lucky Ones by Zara ChowdharyAlso recommended, My Place in the Spiral by Rebecca BeardsallBooks Rebecca is currently reading:⁠The Forgotten Coast by Richard ShawThe Mermaid Chronicles: A midlife mer-moir by Megan DunnThe Emperor of Gladness by Ocean VuongKeystone Poetry Edited by Marjorie Maddox and Jerry WempleBooks Colleen is currently reading:The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid⁠⁠Raising Hare by Chloe DaltonBooks Athena is currently reading:The Tell by Amy GriffinWild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghyThank you for joining us. Three avid readers (Rebecca, Colleen, and Athena) host a podcast about being a reader to investigate their interactions with books: this includes a close look at books that people rave about, and we couldn’t even finish, and why we continue to follow writers when we have only liked their early books. It is also a place where we shine a light on the unseen or underappreciated books we fell in love with.SocialsNOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOU BOOK PODCAST website | https://rebeccabeardsall.com/podcast/ YouTube | @bookpodcastersCOLLEEN CLEMENSInstagram | @colclemensauthor REBECCA BEARDSALL website | https://rebeccabeardsall.com Instagram | @author_rebeccabeardsallATHENA ROTHInstagram | @athenaroth
