What role does reading still play in our modern, screen-saturated lives? In this reflective episode of The Ritual of Reading, Alexandra explores that question through the lens of Jojo Moyes’ bestselling novel The Giver of Stars. What begins as a search for mountain-side escapism turns into a deeper meditation on literature, empathy, and the quiet magic of stories that shape us.

We’ll talk about the power of books to build compassion, the reasons why some people resist reading, and how sharing stories—even casually—can open new worlds. Whether you're a lifelong booklover or just curious about why reading still matters, this episode offers a gentle and thoughtful take on the enduring ritual of books.
