Podcast Episode 92: Circling Back to Summer 2021 Preview Books (with @gilmoreguide)

Circling Back to Summer 2021 books

In the Summer 2021 Book Preview (Ep. 86), Catherine and I shared our most anticipated books coming out June – July 2021. But, we often haven’t read the books we share in the Preview Episodes.

So, in this new series, we will “circle back” to update you on all the books we presented in the previous season’s Book Preview now that we’ve at least attempted to read them.

Highlights

  • Sarah’s and Catherine’s success rates from the Summer Preview.
