First Pages: Literary Fiction vs. Genre Fiction (S3 E4)
Shaena and Jenna talk about the differences between literary fiction and genre fiction by comparing the first few pages of The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt and Frost Burned by Patricia Briggs. The conversation touches on award culture, book snobbery and if you should challenge yourself when reading. During the Reading Break (26:00-33:10), Shaena talks about The Ocean At The End Of The Lane by Neil Gaiman and Jenna talks about City Of Thieves by David Benioff.
