Chatter rolls with Torie and Jamie.  David’s in Paris and Claude is golfing, so Lauren fills in with the important work.  They break down the Olympics (Lauren’s not a watcher), read a couple of emails and ponder the huge influence of women on all things books.  COB alum and fave Erica Wright zooms in from Knoxville to share her latest, “Hollow Bones.” Snakes figure prominently again, but so do orphans and psychics and reporters.  Totally gripping.
Erica goes local with Union Avenue Books her favorite haunt in the heart of Knoxville.
