Happy Thursday! How's your summer reading going?

We had a great conversation with Silvia Moreno-Garcia, the author of our USA TODAY Book Club July pick, " Silver Nitrate." If you missed this month's book club discussion, you can catch the replay on our YouTube channel.

For August, we'll be reading "A Pocketful of Happiness" by Richard E. Grant. The Oscar-nominated actor ("Can You Ever Forgive Me?") writes of his life, storied career and losing his wife of nearly 40 years in 2021, and fulfilling her final challenge to him to find a "pocketful of happiness in every day."

We'll also be speaking with the author, so stay tuned for details.
