Choices, Choices, Choices
February 23, 2024 05:00 - 22 minutes - 50.5 MBWe are finally seniors, which means 2024 is our graduation year! With that comes a lot of uncertainty about our future and the choices we're going to make - so what better place to turn to than some books! In this episode, we analyze books where we feel the characters or authors made good choices, and ones in which we felt they could have done a lot better...because sometimes even the most plot-advancing decision is not the right one. Even we were surprised by the depth of analysis on this o...
Recs and Reasons
January 26, 2024 05:00 - 12 minutes - 28.2 MBWe have read a LOT of books in the past month.

Reading Recap
February 10, 2023 05:00 - 14 minutes - 32.3 MBWe realized that we haven't really just gone through books in awhile - which for a podcast about books is a little weird.

Behind the Scenes
January 21, 2023 14:09 - 10 minutes - 9.3 MBNormally, when we're recording, it takes us AGES to actually get to the point. In fact, our last recording was an hour long - and the episode you guys heard was maybe 20 minutes.

October 14, 2022 04:00 - 3 minutes - 7.68 MBSo we've been slacking, and we realized that because of that we're not giving you guys the best content we possibly could.

For this month, enjoy some of our favorite moments that didn't make it into episodes, but (we think) are extremely funny.

Pagebreak Unfiltered
February 23, 2022 05:00 - 5 minutes - 4.76 MBOur uncut recordings tend to be ... chaotic to say the least.

Authors! Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em
