Ep. 448 Last Chance Live! by Helena Haywoode Henry — The Stacks Book Club (Jess Lee)

It’s The Stacks Book Club Day, and we’re once again joined by DEI consultant, friend of the pod, and the reader behind Literary Intersections, Jess Lee, to chat about our October pick, Last Chance Live! by Helena Haywoode Henry. This dystopian novel follows Eternity Price, an 18-year-old death-row inmate competing for freedom on America’s most popular reality TV show. Today, Jess and I share everything we liked—and didn’t like—about the book, the timeliness of the subject, and the reality TV of it all.

There are spoilers in this episode.

Listen to the end of the episode to find out what our November book club pick will be!
