Selections of what Bedlam Book Café customers are reading

Each week, we’ll ask local bookstores what their customers picked up in the previous month. Some of these will be bestseller lists, others will be lists of some of the more interesting selections, but all are a representation of What Worcester’s Reading. This week’s featured store is Bedlam Book Café.

1. “The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in Trauma Healing” by Bessel van der Kolk (Important Publishing)

2. “Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and Plant Teachings” by Robin Wall Kimmerer (Milkweed Editions)

3. “Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud: The Rise and Reign of the Unruly Woman” by Anne Helen Peterson (Plume)
