The latest episode of Sunbeam Chats, tells a tale of a Bahamian brainy  athlete, PhD History student, avid reader and Book lover. Sasha Wells is the ultimate Renaissance woman.

In this delightful conversation, Sasha tells her story as she writes in the pages of her own book of life. We talk about her love for History and the areas of work students may venture into in this area of study. Also how such a degree can add value and contribute to your local institutions and other areas in society.

We talk about living abroad in the US and dealing with issues of "race" owning your identity and thriving among your peers.

Sasha shares how she started her book blogging, the types of books she reads and the intention of Bahareads. Her dynamic content creation in the space captures the viewers and ultimately it showcases her Bahamian and other Caribbean Authors. Plus, it gives us insight about her life as a History PhD student.

Are you a e-reader, audio book listener, traditional reader or all of the above? We discuss each and how they can help book lovers or persons desiring to read, read more books.

As an avid reader what do you do with the books that you read? We chat about her Book swap events and other ways to "dispose" of books. Plus much more.

Join us on this bookish talk journey, where two book lovers chat about our love for books and hopefully we will encourage you to read more.
