Bobbye Jo Bailey and Lauren Matheson
Welcome to the Not-So-Secret Society, a book club for two...plus.
We are Bobbye Jo Bailey and Lauren Matheson. Two readers who enjoy nothing more than discussing books, laughing, singing show tunes, and recording this podcast.
This first season we will be reading books that have been (or will be) adapted into film or television. Those books include The Shadow and Bone Trilogy, both Six of Crows books, and the King of Scars Duology by Leigh Bardugo. We will also be discussing The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue by V.E. Schwab and The Knife of Never Letting Go (of the Chaos Walking trilogy) by Patrick Ness. The second season will feature books that are reimagined from other stories, be they myths or classic novels. The third season will be centered around books that involve...murder.Join the society and reach out to us on social! We'd love to hear from you, the other members of our book club.
