Manage episode 323906934 series 2996598
Hello everyone! Welcome to DogEared Book Club. I am your host, Alexandra Shelly, also known as Bebe by many. The mission of DogEared is to connect you all to books, thought leaders and avid readers. I am so excited to be sitting here with you all and to introduce you to this gorgeous human being who I am honored to have as my March Bookish Series.
Her name is Rachel Soo Thow and she is from Auckland, New Zealand. I don't even remember coming across her page but what I do remember is that when we connected, we were both reading/finishing 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami and she's a Kiwi, like my parents! I of course was already in love with her, because she's an absolute VIBE. But she matches MY energy, and we get so excited hyping each other up and talking to each other, and it makes me so happy.
This episode is full of so much goodness. We chat about the loveliness of being alone, her intense shops at the big book sales in her town, our love of books (of course), what the bookish community has brought us, and so much more. It's such a rich conversation. It was also after a really hard day; I almost rescheduled our chat for another time. But I am SO happy I ended up sitting down with her. It brightened my spirits so much–as EVERY conversation I've had so far for the Bookish Series.
Follow her on Instagram at @thelitlist_ and stay tuned for her INSANELY awesome book list to come!
