#303: February Monthly Round Up and Recap with Corrine

Author: Janine Jimenez March 18, 2023 Duration: 2:05:52
Hold on to your butts and grab a snack or bevvie, because this episode is a long one! Corrine and I are coming to you with another episode where we FINALLY talk about The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, recap our first book club meeting, and also give a brief overview on all the books we read in February. We also talk about a resounding theme that has been present in our books, and how our lives have reflected that.  We have so much fun recording these episodes, so let us know what books you have been reading, and also what music you would recommend to us, as well!  Make sure you follow @janinebetweenthelines on Instagram, @lonepinebookclub for all book club related things, and Corrine's page @corrinescozycorner! We love you all, and thank you as always for the support ❤️

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when you're curled up with a friend, a cup of coffee, and a head full of thoughts about the book you just finished or the odd little moment from your day that stuck with you. Janine Between the Lines: literature & lifestyle for leisure captures that feeling. Hosted by Janine Jimenez, this podcast feels like a series of those candid, meandering talks. As a Filipina-American, Janine brings a specific lens to the books she discusses, the current issues she unpacks, and those daily, somewhat trivial dilemmas we all ponder but rarely voice. The charm here is in the blend; a deep dive into a novel might seamlessly give way to a personal reflection on culture, society, or the small absurdities of modern life. She describes it as semi-entertaining and playfully warns that the whole endeavor might be a platform for connection or simply a verbal scapegoat-the possibilities are endless. What you'll hear is genuine and unscripted, a space where literature intersects with the realities of a multifaceted lifestyle. It’s less about formal analysis and more about where the lines between stories, identity, and everyday observations blur, creating a unique point of connection for listeners from all backgrounds. Tune in for a thoughtful, often witty, and always human take on the words we read and the world we navigate.
