Description
Mary and guests give you some reading ideas to help you escape the ordinary this summer.
A
So,
as
I
said
that
I
do
have
a
couple
of
staff
members
here
this
month,
who
were
not
here
last
month,
I
have
both
Justin,
hey
Justin
and
Samantha,
okay,
who
have
graciously
agreed
to
spend
some
time
to
share
some
recommendations,
as
I
just
mentioned
our
summer.
Reading
theme
is
on
going
through
august
31st
and
it
is
escape.
The
ordinary
we've
had
a
little
fun
with
this
theme.
A
B
B
Reading
about
history
and
culture
and
you
escape
to
different
places
all
the
time
then
so.
My
first
choice
is
actually
I'm
going
to
talk
about
this
one
first,
because
I
like
this
one,
the
best
this
has
the
most
meaning.
For
me,
this
is
actually
a
book
by
the
director
of
the
British
Museum
mm-hmm.
Is
this
guy
Neil
MacGregor
and
he's
become
incredibly
famous
and
had
incredible
success
with
this
series
in
particular,
and
it
started
off
as
podcasts
and
radio
program,
and
it's
been
so
successful.
A
B
Okay,
it's
actually
on
the
BBC
website.
You
haven't
find
it.
If
you
you
can
google
history
of
the
world
in
100
objects
and
BBC
you'll
find
it
you
can
a
problem
and
I
have
to
say
it
took
me
a
year
and
a
half
to
listen
to
all
the
programs,
because
it's
so
much
information,
it's
so
much
going
on
that.
You
might
not
want
to
read
all
the
bits
at
once.
You
might.
You
might
want
to
borrow
it
a
hundred
times
and
then
okay
just
read
little
by
little,
because
that
way
you
really
absorb
the
information.
B
Thing
I
find
amazing,
is
Neil.
Macgregor
is
an
incredibly
educated,
articulate
man,
but
he's
also
very
human
and
a
warm,
and
he
just
brings
everything
to
life.
It's
amazing,
I
find
that's
why
it's
nice
to
listen
to
as
well
once
you've
read
about
the
object.
Okay,
so,
for
example,
you've
got
the
most
mundane,
boring
looking
objects.
This
is
completely
unprepossessing,
but
it's
actually
an
incredible
piece
of
history.
It's
from
two
million
years
ago
and
its
actual
actually
at
all
it.
B
By
people
mm-hmm,
so
this
is
the
old
of
a
stone
tool
and
then
you
go
to
something
like
when
I
said
tab
here,
something
that's
incredibly
intricate
and
delicate.
That
was
has
been
scientifically
developed
and
this
is
an
astrolabe
that
is
meant
to
be
like
a
compass
and
a
watch,
and
it
has
so
many
things
involved
in
it.
So
from
the
most
complicated
looking
things
to
the
most
mundane,
mm-hmm
I
have
a
personal
favorite
here
on
this
one.
This
looks
really
interesting.
C
B
230
BC
mm-hmm
and
the
reason
I
like
this
one
best
is
because
it
represents
the
emperor
ashoka
who
was
emperor
of
the
whole
of
the
Indian
subcontinent
at
the
time,
and
he
spread
tolerance
and
acceptance
of
others
by
having
these
pillars
in
the
local
language
throughout
his
empire.
Okay-
and
it's
not
ways
common-
that
an
emperor
will
let
you
speak
your
own
language.
Quite
often,
you
want
to
impose
your
language
and
I
think
this
is
such
a
beautiful
idea
of
whom
this
pillar
of
peace
basically
throw.
B
A
B
A
C
A
C
A
C
C
So
it
was
really
it's
really
a
subversively
political
which
I
thought
was
interesting
and
it
kind
of
reverses
a
lot
of
roles
at
first.
You
know
you
really
don't
like
Superman,
which
is
I,
mean
he
is
quintessential
American
hero,
and
this
one
you
don't
like
him
in
fact,
the
hero
for
a
lot.
A
good
chunk
of
the
book
is
Lex
Luthor,
which
is
his
usually
usually
the
nemesis.
Okay,.
C
C
It
I
liked
it.
It
was
something
it
was
I
mean
there.
Some
of
them
are
very
long,
but
this
one
was
a
quick
read:
I
was
able
to
get
kind
of
back
into
the
the
flow
of
reading
again
because
I
had
it
been
probably
a
couple
months
since
I'd
read
a
book
which
is
a
long
time
from
me,
and
this
one
really
kind
of
got
me
started
going
again
really
and
just
kind
of
the
quick
you
know
store
in
like
the
the
picture.
The
art
is
really
incredible.
Okay,.
A
A
B
C
B
Downstairs
to
have
a
look
I
find
that
actually
having
a
look
at
the
nonfiction
stuff
in
in
the
youth
section
is,
is
really
interesting
and
different,
because
it's
not
necessarily
the
same.
Take
on
history
that
you
would
get
in
the
adult
section
and
I
find
that
it's
okay,
it's
usually
more
condensed
more
concise
than
what
you
would
find
up
here,
but
it's
not
dumb
down.
B
So
it's
not
necessarily
going
to
be
simpler,
just
because
it's
for
kids
and
I
think
nowadays
as
well
that
we're
trying
to
be
more
honest
with
kids
about
things
that
happened
about
history
and
so
on.
So
this
book
is
33
things.
Every
girl
should
know
about
women's
history,
but
I
should
specify
it
specifically
USA
Women's
History
Terry.
So
it's
not
a
global
look,
but
since
I
didn't
know
quite
so
much
about
women's
history
in
the
US
I
thought
it
would
be
really
interesting
to
read
great,
very.
B
Also
hear
something
I
like
is
that
it's
very
visual
and
that's
something
you
find
more
with
youth
books
as
well.
I
find
that
quite
helpful.
Actually,
you
have
really
nice
graphics
and
it's
actually
33
different
authors.
Oh
they
provide
a
different
sample.
So
here,
for
example,
we
have
story
as
their
actual
fiction,
and
this
is
my
favorite
element
of
the
book
I
think
because
it
intertwines
three
different
women's
history
from
the
19th
century.
A
C
B
Quotes
by
women
because
she
actually
wrote
into
the
Minneapolis
newspaper
some
years
ago.
Why
are
there
so
few
women
quoted
in
your
newspaper?
They
have
a
quote
of
the
day
and
someone
apparently
wrote
in
response
to
her
letter
was
because
women
never
say
anything
interesting.
Oh
so
she's
decided.
Okay!
Well,
here
are
some
interesting
things:
women,
it's
a
great
and
then
you'll,
see
on
the
last
bit.
There's
again
it's
different.
B
Ok
and
each
subject
is
taken
is
interpreted
by
the
author,
each
author,
different
ok,
so
there,
this
poetry,
there's
fiction
is
history,
this
time
lines,
there's
the
quotes,
it's
all
interpreted
slightly
differently,
there's
even
some
autobiography
in
there
as
well.
Right
and
it's
not
I
know
it
looks
kind
of
like
it
might
be
a
feminist
book.
B
But
it
is
not
it's
done
in
a
very
positive
way
about
including
the
men
that
have
helped
women
and
how
we've
worked
together
in
especially
in
recent
times,
but
it's
a
really
positive
but
I,
think
and
I
think
it's
really
useful
for
everyone
to
read
right,
I!
Think
it
a
bit
limiting
to
say
maybe
every
girl
I
think
every
person
should
read
great.
B
A
B
A
A
C
C
And
I
didn't
know
even
where
to
begin:
okay,
not
graphic
novels,
not
something
I'm,
really
familiar
with
I,
didn't
didn't
know
what
was
considered
classic
or
you
know
where
I
should
start.
So
I
just
I
went
to
the
internet
and
I
asked
some
friends
to
that:
read
allah,
graphic
novels
and
one
that
kept
coming
up.
Was
this
one?
It's
a
batman,
a
graphic
novel
called
The
Killing
Joke
by
Alan
Moore
and
its
unique
in
that
it
takes
a
much
as
the
other
one
was
a
different
take
on
the
Superman
origin
story.
C
It
was.
It
was
really
really
well
done
and
I
couldn't
wait
to
finish
it
because
I
had
no.
What
was
what
was
happening
just
bet
the
way
they
they
built
up
the
story
or
the
way
that
author
built
up
the
story,
so
that
was
I
did
not
expect
that
to
me,
graphic
novels
are
just
long.
Comic
books
and
I
wasn't
so
wrong
about
that.
It
really
is.
It
really
is
a
novel
that
just
happens
to
be
told
through
pictures
which
I
was
not
expecting.
I
was
expecting.
C
You
know
kind
of
just
you
know
simple
superhero
kind
of
story,
but
it
was.
It
was
fascinating
really
to
see
that
this
take
on
this,
what's
considered
to
be
one
of
the
worst
criminals
in
the
DC
Universe,
to
see
that
maybe
he
did
start
out
as
a
normal
guy
and
maybe
and
his
heat.
C
The
Joker
in
the
story
posits
that
we
all
have
bad
days
and
that
he
just
happened
to
snap
at
his
and
so,
but
that
maybe
we
all
have
that
in
US,
which
I
don't
really
agree
with,
but
that
was
what
they
were
trying
to
convey
in
in
the
story,
and
it
has
a
really
interesting
ambiguous,
ending
that
I
think
really
made
it
worthwhile
when
you
get
to
the
end.
Oh.
A
C
C
Are
that
Superman
Batman
has
a
fairly
strict,
at
least
in
this
graphic
novel,
a
code
of
not
killing
people
mm-hmm,
but
the
end
you
kind
of
has
he
been
pushed
too
far
by
the
Joker,
is
kind
of
what
you
might
find
at
the
end
and
it
the
way
they
leave
it
hanging
you
really
have
to
interpret.
You
know
how.
How
did
Batman
suffer
through
all
this
stuff
and
did
he
come
out?
Okay
or.
A
C
C
C
C
A
B
I
have
chosen
two
dvds,
okay
and
they're,
both
foreign
films
that
I
thought
might
be
interesting.
It
is
hard
to
know
where
to
start
with
foreign
film,
sometimes
unless
you've
heard
of
something
being
really
famous
or
kind
of
really
catching
catching
the
eye
in
other
countries.
So
just
little
hints
about
a
couple
of
the
foreign
films
that
you
might
enjoy.
One
of
my
favorite
films
actually
is
Emily
and
is
from
2001
and
it's
a
French
film.
Although
the
the
director
is
Belgian
jean-pierre
journey
and
it's
just
a
really
charming
film
is
incredibly
quirky.
B
It's
not
your
typical
romantic
comedy,
but
it's
kind
of
got
romance
and
it's
kind
of
got
and
it's
definitely
got
comedy
something.
I
really
love
about
this
film
as
well.
Is
that
the
dialogue
so
I
like
it
is
sparkling
really.
So
it's
really
entertaining
film
very
easy
to
watch
very,
very
funny,
very
charming
and
that.
B
B
It
was
a
funny
film,
it
was
touching
as
well
and
it
had
its
share
of
drama
and
comedy,
and
it's
about
this,
this
young
mom
who's
growing
up
well,
her
kids
are
growing
up
from
being
little
and
she
separates
from
her
husband
and
it's
they're
trying
to
develop
as
a
family
and,
and
you
see
different
stages
of
the
the
family.
So
you
see
them
they
flash
and
switch
between
the
different
ages.
B
So
when
the
kids
are
little
and
the
kids
are
teenagers
and
then
when
the
kids
are
grown
up
and
how
the
family
interacts-
and
it's
very
moving
and
funny
really
and
I,
find
it's
kind
of
different
to
other
Italian
comedy
films
that
I've
seen
that
Italian
comedy
can
be
quite
visual
in
slapstick,
often
whereas
this
is
not
this
is
this
is
more
subtle
and
I
really
love
the
comedy
they
infuse
into
the
dialogue,
and
even
just
the
gestures.
There
are
little
gestures
and
the
little
kids
that
play
in
it
are
actually
really
brilliant.
They
really.
A
A
B
C
And
end
to
it
and
a
lot
of
non
fiction
stories.
I
chose
ghost
world
by
Daniel
Clowes.
It
is
a
superhero
free.
Basically
it's
about
these
two
friends
who
these
two
girls,
who
are
friends
and
it's
that
period
of
time
after
high
school
before
college,
and
how
confusing
and
some
and
unsure
you
are
at
that.
At
that
point,
at
least
I
was
so
I
related,
and
the
relationship
between
the
two
girls
is
really
interesting.
There,
they're
friends,
but
they
kind
of
don't
like
each
other
and
their
dialogue.
B
C
It's
set
in
the
90s,
and
so
it
was
really
interesting
to
see
what
was
almost
reality
captured
in
this
in
this
graphic
format,
because
it
was
very
real
and
I
felt
like
I
knew.
These
people
like
these
were
people
that
I
grew
up
with
or
friends
that
I
had
made,
and
the
artwork
was
really
interesting.
It's
lots
of
pastels
and
lots
of
lots
of
Blues
lots
of
pinks
and
it
kind
of
conveys
this
kind
of
sour
mood
than.
C
A
C
How
you
navigate
relationships
at
this
weird
stage
in
your
life,
and
so
that
was
a
really
unique
exploration
of
that
that
time
period
in
your
life,
that's
really
difficult
to
articulate
sometimes,
but
Daniel
Clowes
did
a
really
really
excellent.
Job
like
I
said,
I
really
think
that
he
was
just
falling
around
teenagers
with
a
with
a
tape
recorder.
A
A
A
C
C
Father-In-Law
always
said
that
he
couldn't
watch
that
show
because
it
wasn't
funny
to
him,
because
it
was
too
close
to
reality
and
that's
how
I
felt
about
this
book
is
not
that
it
wasn't
funny,
because
it
certainly
is,
but
it's
it's
so
close
to
reality
that
it's
it's
almost
scary.
Just
how
close
it
is.
So
it
was
very
enjoyable.
Well.
A
Great
well
I'm
so
interested
to
hear
that
you
not
only
chose
a
new
format
for
your
reading.
Even
within
the
format
you
stretched
and
and
went
a
couple
of
different
directions,
and
likewise
Samantha
I'm,
just
so
thrilled
that
you
shared
with

spans
the
globe
in
so
many
ways
and
then

introduced
us
to
some
films.
A
Both

so
great

some
recommendations
