Thanksgiving Edition of The Underground Literary Society

Yesterday, Nicole and I chatted with author Jennifer Vanderbes about Thanksgiving and her book Strangers at the Feast. We also discussed how hard it is to find Thanksgiving themed books and what makes Thanksgiving a holiday of mixed feelings and conflict, as well as a valuable setting for stories of family drama. It's one of my favorite episodes yet, and I hastily edited it together and posted it last night. If you're unwinding from the holiday and not quite ready to jump into the Christmas music, I'd love it if you listen.

Just today, I discovered another book set at Thanksgiving reviewed on Tales from the Reading Room, Thanksgiving Night by Richard Bausch. I've added it to my list to keep in mind for next year.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I remain, as ever, grateful for the small ways in which our lives intersect and for all of the things you teach me about life and love. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Happy Thanksgiving, Amy! I can warmly recommend the Bausch but Jennifer Vanderbes is new to me - I'll definitely check her novel out!
