About this listen
For this episode, we’re discussing Lakewood by Megan Giddings. Malavika Praseed of The Chicago Review of Books said, "Giddings takes the distrust of her community and amplifies it, creating something wholly new and modern ... Giddings maintains a tight hold on us for much of the book. Her plainspoken yet detailed prose draws us close to Lena, allowing us to get to know Lena’s independent spirit and sharp observations ... Prose like this keeps us tightly wound, hanging on Gidding’s every word and Lena’s every move. We feel a paranoia unique to the digital age, censored searches and blocked websites, constantly being heard and watched. And eventually, when things spiral out of control and Giddings lets us go, we’re left reeling. Dizzy. We pick up some pieces, but not all of them.” Korey says, “Everything that happens is interesting, and it’s well written, and also it ultimately felt disjointed in a way.” Ashley says, “It needed more juice.” Tune in to our latest episode to hear more about Lakewood now! 🧠 🧬
