Gayle and Nicole spend the first half of the podcast chatting with Cynthia Swanson, the author of The Bookseller & The Glass Forest. Though both Cynthia’s novels are historical fiction, set in the late 50s and early 60s, we discussed the parallels between the issues and challenges women faced then and now. Later on in the show, we Gayle and Nicole discuss the books they’ve recently finished, what they’re reading next, and Nicole’s vacation reads.
