Book Club Questions Discussed:
Amy: Elizabeth is sometimes depressed by the circumstances in her life. Not coincidentally, her show airs in the “Afternoon Depression Zone.” And yet she’s never a victim. How does she continually pick herself up? What fuels her resilience? And why, after she’s reached stardom, is she more miserable than ever?
Wendy: Do you think author Garmus portrayed Elizabeth only as a strong, self-assured character, avoiding Elizabeth’s weaknesses?
Extra Question because we couldn't help it: Why does Elizabeth always wear a pencil in her hair? Is it a weapon or is it a symbol of strength?
Podcast hostesses styled this season by an independent cabi stylist.
