It’s our end of the year wrap up and the gang’s all here! Wherein Tara and Meredith talk about YALL Fest, we announce our 11th Hour Readathon to close out our 2019 TBRs, and we pick our favorites from this year’s reads. Then we cozy up by a (internet) fire to discuss the not-so-scary ghost story: “The Tenth Girl.” Find us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/eclecticreadpod), Litsy (https://www.litsy.com/web/user/EclecticReaders), Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/eclecticreaders/), and Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/68328-eclectic-readers) Little House on the Prairie on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/77767.Little_House_on_the_Prairie?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=SYkI490LwI&rank=3) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/slredirect/picassoRedirect.html/ref=pa_sp_atf_stripbooks_sr_pg1_1) I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29010395-i-am-not-your-perfect-mexican-daughter?from_search=true&qid=G4A0aPf9XI&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Not-Your-Perfect-Mexican-Daughter/dp/1524700517/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=I+am+not+your+perfect+mexican+daughter&qid=1576333668&s=books&sr=1-1) Children of Blood and Bone on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34728667-children-of-blood-and-bone?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=xripT6Ef6L&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Children-Blood-Bone-Legacy-Orisha/dp/1250170974/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=children+of+blood+and+bone&qid=1576333551&s=books&sr=1-3) Of Kisses and Curses on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43985469-of-curses-and-kisses?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=zqRCFoc4mR&rank=2) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Curses-Kisses-Sandhya-Menon/dp/1534417540/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=of+kisses+and+curses&qid=1576333508&s=books&sr=1-1) Good Omens on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12067.Good_Omens?from_search=true&qid=R7U32m8hmD&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Good-Omens-Accurate-Prophecies-Nutter/dp/0060853980/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1G32Y0P98WLGF&keywords=good+omens+the+nice+and+accurate+prophecies+of+agnes+nutter%2C+witch&qid=1576333420&s=books&sprefix=good+omens%2Cstripbooks%2C171&sr=1-2) City of Ghosts on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35403058-city-of-ghosts?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=jgvUXuSISd&rank=2) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/City-Ghosts-Victoria-Schwab/dp/1338111027/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=city+of+ghosts&qid=1576333373&s=books&sr=1-1) The Importance of Being Earnest on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/92303.The_Importance_of_Being_Earnest?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=b3d4JrCNBA&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Importance-Being-Earnest-Oscar-Wilde/dp/0486264785/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=the+importance+of+being+earnest&qid=1576333222&s=books&sr=1-2) The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32620332-the-seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=5mSRxvwSrb&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Seven-Husbands-Evelyn-Hugo-Novel/dp/1501161938/ref=sr_1_2?crid=15BN3Z422QY67&keywords=the+seven+husbands+of+evelyn+hugo&qid=1576333135&s=books&sprefix=the+seven+hus%2Cstripbooks%2C155&sr=1-2) Becoming on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38746485-becoming?from_search=true&qid=5b1AnPbs7R&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Michelle-Obama/dp/1524763136/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=becoming&qid=1576333017&s=books&sr=1-1) Dear Martin on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/24974996-dear-martin?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=gO0Q3bOx2m&rank=1) and Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Dear-Martin-Nic-Stone/dp/1101939524/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3IZLBQGW29P4O&keywords=dear+martin&qid=1576332982&s=books&sprefix=Dear+MArtin%2Cstripbooks%2C172&sr=1-1) The Lies of Locke Lamora on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29588376-the-lies-of-locke-lamora?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=d33SqKF0UI&rank=1) and Amazon...

It’s Non-Fiction November! Susan, Meredith, and Tara discuss the genre in general, do they read a lot of nonfiction? And what are some of their favorite nonfiction books? Then they go into a fictional biography with Orlando. Virginia Woolf really is ahead of her time and they come to the conclusion that more time may be needed for classics.
