Welcome back to The Community Library! As well as being a podcast host and a bookworm, I am also an actor! And this past week has seen the release of TV show I’m in called Mare of Easttown. To celebrate this show’s release, I wanted to do a podcast episode themed to the show, so today I’m going to be talking about some of the books I think you’d find on my character’s bookshelf.
Listen to the episode here
Episode 1 of Mare of Easttown is out now, and episode 2 comes out tomorrow! In the US you can watch it on HBO, in Australia it’s on Binge and Foxtel, and in the UK it’s on Sky Atlantic.
April’s book club pick is the nonfiction book Disfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability and Making Space by Amanda Leduc! I’ll be discussing this on the 31st of April, and I’d love for you to read along with me.
