#20 - Mystery, Muses, and the End of Newspapers: Delving into Diverse Stories and Changing Times

Books & Looks

Today I dive into E.J. Copperman's intriguing blend of science fiction and cozy mystery, "Ukulele of Death." Follow the adventures of Fran and Ken Stein, clone detectives on a quest to help people find their natural-born parents and unravel the mystery surrounding a valuable ukulele.

I also sit down with author Martha Anne Toll to discuss her debut novel, "Three Muses," a powerful exploration of the Holocaust's impact on survivors, inspired by her Jewish heritage, ballet background, and Greek mythology. Discover the complexities of relationships, the "Me Too" movement, and the importance of memory. Plus, get a sneak peek into her upcoming novel, "Duet for One," a heartfelt musical love story about love, grief, and abandonment.

Finally, I share my thoughts on the changing landscape of news consumption and the decision to stop receiving physical newspapers in a world where information is just a click away. Don't miss out on this engaging episode packed with insightful discussions and reviews, and find your next great read with us!
