DoubleX recommendations:
Noreen recommends Dept. of Speculation by Jenny Offill.
Hanna needs recommendations for mystery novels with strong female characters, like those by Donna Leon and Jacqueline Winspear. Just because Hillary says that’s what women of a certain age should do. So leave your recommendations here.
June recommends the Back in the Days Coloring Book by Jamel Shabazz and Line of Duty on Hulu.
