The Montréal bookstore doing it like no other: Meet Joie de Livres

If there ever was a bookstore that lived up to its name, it’s Joie de Livres in Montréal. From its shelves of romance and fantasy, to its cocktails, coffee and nacho selection, it’s a store dedicated to the joy of reading and of life. Program director Mathieu Lauzon-Dicso talks about what to expect when you walk through its doors. Plus, writer and translator Jinwoo Park recommends two book picks for Asian Heritage Month.

Books discussed on this week's show include:

Even Though I Knew the End by C.L. Polk

Restaurant Kid by Rachel Phan

Celestina’s House by Clarissa Trinidad Gonzalez
