57.5 - It's an Independent Publisher Extravaganza

After a bit of a mis-speak, we realized that we've read more books published by independent publishers and presses than we thought. So we're here to highlight the great work by publishers you suggested and publishers that we think are putting out great work.

After a bit of a mis-speak, we realized that we've read more books published by independent publishers and presses than we thought. So we're here to highlight the great work by publishers you suggested and publishers that we think are putting out great work. There's so many to talk about that we couldn't fit it all in!

Next week we will be reading Notes of a Crocodile by Qiu Miaojin. You can find it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us.
