This week on Getting Literate, Katie and Julia are live in person, clinking glasses and discussing Fahrenheit 451. The gals dive into communist vs capitalist dystopia, living libraries, and male perspectives on women characters. Katie thinks big emotions are linked to creation metaphors, and Julia reflects on the ever-increasing presence of algorithms in our everyday lives. PLUS: TikTok sucks, Cliffsnotes is weird, and poetry slams are never a good idea. As always, there's definitely spoilers, so proceed with caution.


This week's book was Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury. More info at https://raybradbury.com/
