In episode 206 of the Functional Nerds Podcast, Patrick Hester and John Anealio talk with prolific book blogger and reviewer, Sarah Chorn.
About Sarah:
I have been a compulsive reader my whole life. At a young age I found my reading niche in the fantastic genre of Speculative Fiction. I blame my active imagination for the hobbies that threaten to consume my life. I am a freelance writer and editor, a semi-pro nature photographer, world traveler, two-time cancer survivor, and mom to one rambunctious toddler. In my ideal world, I’d do nothing but drink lots of tea and read from a never ending pile of speculative fiction books.
Other than my website, you can find me on SF Signal for my weekly column Special Needs in Strange Worlds where I try my hardest to get a conversation going (and keep it going) about the importance of disabilities in this genre I love so much. Occasionally you can find me on the podcasts of those brave enough to ask me to participate, doing interviews or writing guest posts around the internet, and hopefully soon I’ll be participating in some conventions.
You can find me annoying people on Twitter as @BookwormBlues, on Facebook, and on Bookworm Blues.
This week’s picks:
- Sarah: Daughter of the Sword by Steven Bein.
- John: The Noble Hustle by Colson Whitehead

The Monticello book carousel reminds me of the movie Hellboy 🙂
I hate PDFs for reading–except for browsing through an RPG manual.
The Orbit Netgalley thing…hunh. That explains a lot, Sarah. I’m not on that email. (Orbit doesn’t know I exist 😉 )
