How is it July already? In this episode our local Bookdragon SandyJ has not only some routine suggestions for you, but also two very different book recommendations. While the non-fiction recommendation „Lost Connections“ by Johann Hari explores the difficult topic of depression and the human society‘s condition. The Science Fiction recommendation is, while it explores equally complicated topics, a very cozy and enjoyable read: „The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet“ by Becky Chambers. A Heroine’s Journey through space? Yes, please.

Stream on Sunday, July 4th, 7 PM local time. Drops on Monday, July 5th, noon-ish, Oldschool Radio Broadcast Tuesday July 13th, 10 AM, 104.8 UKW
