The Terrible Reading Club
books that deal with the hard stuff, hosted by Nora McInerny
The Terrible Reading Club is a podcast about great books for truly terrible times. Host Nora McInerny knows a thing or two about this kind of literature, because's she's written several books herself about tough subjects like grief and loss and mental health (and moving forward in the face of it all).
Each episode centers a book that deals with Hard Stuff and features an interview with the author about their work. And the best part about this reading club? You don't need to read the book ahead of time!

“How To Keep House While Drowning” With KC Davis
Self-help books sell mostly because they are selling you a way to solve a problem, and the problem is you. It’s never something that’s out of your control, or bigger than you, it’s just… you. But today’s book, even if it’s shelved in the self-help section, is different.
How to Keep House While Drowning by KC Davis is the most compassionate, most practical, most understanding book about how to do the kind of tasks that can confound and, like it says, drown you. In this episode, Nora talks with KC about the problems that arise when having a clean home becomes a moral issue.
