We’re finally back! We talked about the The Time Machine Did It, which Kate found silly and she says that about ten times. Dan liked it and gives it A, Kate gives it a C, though Dan makes the argument that C+ is the best grade you can possibly give something.

They move on to A Man Called Ove, which they both thoroughly enjoyed. They both give it an A, but argued about whether they should watch the Swedish film based on the book. They then debate over who should be in the US version of the film they announced. Where do you think the movie should take place in the US?

What we recommend:

Who is America?
Nathan for You
Football
Fast food
The Davis Theater
Carbon Arc
Oromo Cafe
Book Cellar
Dirty Money
Leigh Bardugo’s books
Last Chance U

The next two books we are reading are Boss: Richard J. Daley of Chicago by Mike Royko and Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, and the Prison of Belief by Lawrence Wright. Kate and Dan live in Chicago, so Richard Daley looms large in their lives. Kate is obsessed with Scientology, so she wants to learn more about it.

If Kate can wrangle it they will do an Adapted! episode, but that is dependent on Dan.

Sorry for the sniffing! No one was doing coke, we promise you!

Happy reading and we will see you in August in the latest!
