Jess7
The Favorite Sister | Jessica Knoll
post image

🎧 Listening to author #JessicaKnoll on #FullyBooked by #KirkusReviews 🎧 Every time I listen to her in an interview I like her as a person even more! I haven‘t read her new book #TheFavoriteSister yet, but I keep hearing it covers themes of #feminism. I am excited to read it.

📚 Have any of you listened to this #podcast or read Knoll‘s new book? 📖

KarenUK No, but I just bought it yesterday... I‘ll have to check out the podcast 👍😊 6y
janeycanuck I dumped Fully Booked a couple of weeks ago - the amount of advertising has become completely absurd. How is ~8 minutes of ads in a 50 minute podcast “minimal interruptions”? 6y
Jess7 I didn‘t notice a bunch but I only listened to the section with Jessica Knoll. So I fast forwarded to that part and stopped after it was over. @janeycanuck 6y
janeycanuck @Jess7 ahh... they put about 4 minutes at the beginning of each episode along with another 2 or 3 at the end and then sometimes another ad break in the middle. It drove me nuts. 6y
Jess7 Yeah that would get old! Maybe try looking at the notes about whichever author is going to be there and fast forward to the part you‘re into if any of the guests seem interesting. I thought the Jessica Knoll interview was good. Highly recommend if you want to fast forward to it. She was the first guest I think so like 4 minutes in. @janeycanuck 6y

The Corpse in the Crimson Slippers | Robert Alfred John Walling

Per Kirkus Reviews: "One of the best of the Tolefree tales. Mystery within mystery, all centering around a cryptogram, the murder of the wrong man, a gang of counterfeiters, and so on."

?This sounds like a #WhoDunitWednesday read I can get behind. I initially bought it based on the title and cover alone. ?
