SHOW NOTES

The Hunger Games Trilogy Boxset – if you haven’t read the Hunger Games, I recommend.

NurtureShock: New Thinking About Children – great book PACKED with good parenting information. Jeff and I are going to attempt to do a series over this book, but it may take a year since it’s so rich.

1984 (Signet Classics)– this book has left me speechless, and thinking more than I ever have before over the concept of power and totalitarian control.
