In this episode, Abbe reviews The New Me by Halle Butler, and the book's relatable, albeit unlikeable, protagonist.
Then, she sits down with author and journalist Taffy Brodesser-Akner about her novel, Fleishman is in Trouble, marriage, and Bradley Cooper.
Finally, Abbe and author Camille Perri talk about When Katie Met Cassidy and other novels with queer protagonists that are perfect Pride Month reading.
