Katie's picks have included classics, like Timothy Egan's "The Good Rain," and more recent hits, like Sonora Jha's "The Laughter." At the end of each month's reading, Katie interviews the featured author, giving readers a chance to hear from some of the most talented writers in the region. All readers are invited to join the KUOW Book Club by signing up for the newsletter at kuow.org/books.
