Between each of our full-length episodes, I'm going to be talking about some of my favorite new releases! We're calling these mini-bites because they're shorter and will not feature a guest. I'm still going to be recommending similar books, movies, music, TV, and food, but just in an even more bite-sized format! These episodes will be released the third Tuesday of every month.

In this week's episode, we go out of this world with Tillie Walden's Hugo-nominated On a Sunbeam. This graphic novel has so much packed into its story including LGBTQ representation, a found family, beautiful art and more! I will also discuss the validity and merits of graphic novels as a legitimate literary format.
