Have you ever read a book and wished you could linger in its world? Has an author ever dropped a reference that makes you want to look it up and fall into a research rabbit hole? In Bookshelf Remix, Sophia and Elaina, two “professional readers” get stuck into reading for fun and things get very nerdy. Drop in on their conversations and follow along as a Mexican-American and Filipina-Canadian discuss books (including spoilers!) by BIPOC, LGBTQ, disabled, and other historically marginalised authors and take a deep dive into themes they want to learn more about.
