Shownotes

In this episode, we discuss the Books & Boba Book Club pick for March 2018, What Lies Between Us by Nayomi Munaweera, a story about a girl from Sri Lanka, and the tragic series of traumas that shape her life. It's a story about the pressures of growing up female in a culture steeped in misogyny, coming of age as an immigrant in a new country, and the tension of never feeling good enough. For additional thoughts and discussion on the monthly pick, visit the Books & Boba Goodreads forums.
