Welcome back! Over the next six weeks, or three episodes of the podcast, we’ll be reading - and librarianing the heck out of - the first book in Frank Herbert’s epic Sci-Fi series, Dune. We chose Dune in part because it’s getting a lot of buzz, first-reads, and rereads this year, due to the new feature film coming out in 2021.
In part one of Dune, Megan can't pronounce any of the made-up names, Pete reminisces about his dad reading Dune when he was a kid, and Jenny muses on Cold War politics.
What have we been reading?
Megan
- "Spoiler Alert" - Olivia Dade
- The Ravenels series - Lisa Kleypas
Pete
- "The Big Goodbye: Chinatown and the Last Years of Hollywood" - Sam Wasson
Jenny
