  • Reality Check

    Reality Check
    2026/07/28

    Today, we are getting a reality check! Ellyn is joined by the real Ken Moore, Bookseller Mariah, and her son Holden. They're discussing Dog-Eared's newest book club Reality Check.

    Reality Check Book Club reads new release non-fiction across many different sub-genres, from science history to philosophical explorations--not ship wrecks though, that's a different club (coming 2027). If you love non-fiction, or even if you don't and are open to changing your mind, come join host Ken Moore, official grandpa of Dog-Eared Books, and buckle up for a reality check. Meets the first Tuesday of every month at 6 PM no sign up necessary.

He is joining Amanda & Ellyn on today's episode to talk all about it. Listen to find out what stage of construction we're in, and find out what's coming up soon!

  • Poppin' Off with Tessa Yang

    Poppin' Off with Tessa Yang
    2026/06/02

    Today we are joined by author Tessa Yang whose debut published novel The Jellyfish Problem instantly captivated Ellyn and Amanda. Most you know if it's got a touch of monster and magical realism it's likely to have that special sauce and become a Dog-Eared favorite.

    For as long as she can remember, two things have been fundamentally true about Jo Ness: she is fascinated by jellyfish, and she is misunderstood by most people. The Jellyfish Problem is a story about coming to terms with grief, about trusting others and finding community, and about the interconnectedness of us all. Ellyn and Amanda adore it.

    Order The Jellyfish Problem by Tessa Yang HERE
