Totally Booked with Zibby

My husband Kyle and I discussed my Most Anticipated List of books coming out in 2025!! We talked casually in the car as I read through the draft of my list and shared details about select titles. I'll publish the list, which includes the books I talked about and more, on zibbyowens.substack.com soon -- so you don't have to write all of these down! But you heard it here first. Make sure you're signed up for my Substack to get the email when the full list comes out. (Didn't Kyle do a nice job?)I'd love to hear your feedback on the episode!

Zibby is joined by New York Times bestselling author Olivia Campbell to discuss SISTERS IN SCIENCE, the extraordinary true story of four resilient women physicists who escaped Nazi Germany and made groundbreaking contributions to science.
