Our HERsay Podcast x Barnes & Noble June book picks are here, and today Caroline is talking with Dorothy Bellas from Barnes & Noble Colonie Center, just outside of Albany, NY. June is a busy month for all of us - in addition to our standard-issue breakneck schedules, we’re entertaining friends, planning ways to de-suction kids from their screens this summer, looking for our own summer escapism, and many women are celebrating Pride as members of the LGBTQ+ community or as allies. We’ve got the book picks to help you do it all.

Proceeds from books purchased at HERsaypodcast.com this month go to Real Mama Bears - supporting, educating, and empowering parents of LGBTQ+ kids and the the LGBTQ+ community. 

Happy reading!
