Our guests today are members of a group they comicly refer to as a “literary gang”, a book club called The Monstrous Regiment, a name based on a book by author Terry Pratchett that features a feminist manifesto. Hannah Zimmerman and Amelia Reesor started the group 3 ½ years ago with a focus on female-centric books, although as you will soon realize, every rule is meant to be broken in this high energy crowd of both male and female 20 and 30 somethings. Hannah and Amelia talk to us about the difference between being a group that is female-centric versus feminist, why having male members adds interesting insights to their book discussions, and how they were surprised that the group has gone from a typical book club to a supportive social network.   Books Mentioned in this Episode: Even Cowgirls Get the Blues by Tom Robbins Coraline by Neil Gaiman The Monstrous Regiment by Terry Pratchett Beloved by Toni Morrison My Sister the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite The Power by Naomi Alderman The Member of the Wedding by Carson McCullers The Little Paris Bookshop by Nina George Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng The Magician's Assistant by Ann Patchett Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert Medallion Status by John Hodgman The Dutch House by Ann Patchett Winter's Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E.
