Show Notes

Today we’re heading to the coast of Maine… at least in our imagination.

I’m chatting with Amanda Dykes, author of the adult fiction novel, Whose Waves These Are, in a summer episode that celebrates seaside tales. 


In this episode, you’ll hear: 

  • how the books we read as children can impact us for life
  • the unique way that books transport us
  • how books can serve as “functional souvenirs” (the best kind!)

I also answer a listener question about organizing personal vs family books, and how I decide if a book should become part of our permanent collection. (The book I mention in this part is Outside Your Window by Nicola Davies and Mark Hearld.)
