How to Be Funny Like Jim Hines

Howard Kurtz: This week's book of the week is Eyes Like Stars by Lisa Mancheve. Kurtz: The YA title is set in the theater illuminata, which is the theater that contains all of the plays ever written. He says Ophelia hangs out with random characters from Death of a Salesman and then runs off to drown herself. KurtZ: It's a very self-contained story and I love the idea. You can pick up a copy of Eyes Like Stars on audio at audible podcast slash excuse where you can kick off a trial 14 day free membership.
