What Stacy and Her Boys are Reading Now

Happy Summer, reader friends! In the six weeks since my semester ended I’ve done a bunch of running around – both literally (another 1⁄2 marathon and a trail race) and metaphorically (moving, quick work trip to Iowa City, teaching a Shakespeare class at a prison – more on that in a future blog post). But, I’ve also squeezed in some reading time. And, so have my two boys (ages 40 and 8). Here’s what is stacked up on our coffee table and these days:
