Phil and Sara are back, and even though Phil told us he wasn't only going to read Shelby Foote's Civil War Narrative, he has been sucked in by Foote's wit and flowery language. So we talked a bit about that, as well as Tommy Orange's Wandering Stars and Michael Harriot's Black AF History. You can also listen to all of the books we talk about here! Lastly, you can go here and see a playlist of book we discuss on the podcast.

We're trying something a little different this week with a new segment we're calling "Bookish Bedtime Chat". Join Sara and Matthew (and their pets) as they discuss James by Percival Everett and Burn Book by Kara Swisher, all from the comfort of their bed. Listen Here Purchase Here

First of all, apologies for the late episode. Sara's family had quite a bit going on this month, so editing was placed on the back burner. Nonetheless, this month's book club episode was a fun conversation. Phil and Sara discussed Dederer's book that sprung from an article published in The Paris Review shortly after the exposure of Harvey Weinstein. We clearly had a lot to say. If you have thoughts or questions, please send us an email: [email protected] You can grab your copy of Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma in the shop, online here, or via audio here!
