Ep 141: 6 Classic Novels You Should Read (with guest Colleen Powell)

This episode is for anyone who misses being a student. 

I have a running list of classic novels that I want to re-read as an adult or read for the first time because I missed them in high school English class. 

And so once a year or so, I force myself to pick up those novels that end up on All Time Best lists like this one. Or this one. Or even this one

If you have the same literary burden, this episode is meant to help you choose a classic that won't be a total bore. 

I'm joined by my friend and Patreon producer Colleen Powell, a former teacher and current audio editor outside of Chicago. 

Colleen helps me with the Secret Stuff Book Club, and this winter we're reading a few classic novels starting this November with Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.

In our conversations, Colleen and I are sharing both the best contemporary books we've read lately AND the best classic novels we'd recommend to anyone.
