The Convenience Store Woman
Riveting. Unsettling. Complicated. Triggering. All adjectives used to describe this book. I concur. Please join Anne and me as we reflect on many of the themes presented in this book specifically, what is "normal."
Customer Reviews
Good luck!
I’m so inspired by Kalima’s constant drive to not only pursue her passion for books and intersectional feminism, but also her deep commitment to doing so in a sustainable, life-giving way. I can’t wait till your new podcast drops!
A strong understanding of community
I love the format of this podcast. I love how Kamila DeSuze takes the time to not only review the books, but she takess the time to get to know the community member who suggested the book. A perfect companion to a wonderful shop!
Great podcast and great store
