Both of us have read books that stand out, stand up to the test of time, and stand above all the rest. Our lists are the books that have been meaningful to us over the years and have, once internalized, slightly changed the way we experience the world.

The Book Jam is…
The view from a small town in Vermont onto the wide world of books. We're two women passionate about reading and sharing our literary discoveries. Even though we live in the woods, we can spot a great book - even through all these leaves and branches - especially with the steady stream of excellent suggestions from the indie booksellers up here in the North Country. If you've got reader's block - also known as being in a "book jam" - this blog will help. We just rest easier knowing that you have the right title on your bedside table each night. Everything we recommend has been personally read and reviewed by one of us - all the way up here in the Green Mountain State.Book Jam Picks For:
