88 - Little Eyes by Samanta Schweblin

This week we read Samanta Schweblin's Little Eyes, a very Black Mirror-type story featuring, you guessed it, some little eyes. We have a conversation about if a kentuki is more like a drone or a phone app, and talk about why exactly someone would want to have a stranger staring at them all the time.

We are off next week, returning December 29th with our Year in Review episode!

89 - Pride & Prejudice, or, We Are Not Austen Scholars, Sorry

If you are a die-hard Jane Austen fan, you may want to skip this one. We read Corinne's pick for our January prompt, "A book you think you really should have read by now." P&P is embedded in our cultural consciousness and it was time for us to see what the fuss is all about. Note: Even though Austen is G-rated, this episode contains swearing.

Next up is Becca's pick, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou.
