HPPR Radio Readers Book Club Contributor

I live in Edina, Minnesota with my husband and two dogs, Ernest Hemingwag and Edgar Allen Pup. Can you tell I'm a book nerd? I love reading, hiking, peeping birds, craft cocktails, and anything dog-related. I grew up in Baldwin City, KS, and my Best Friend does the High Plains Morning show on HPPR.

The book is Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson.
