Thank you to our Icelandic listener Jessic Lyn Webb who told us that this NYT bestseller was “truly the most heinous misjustice to storytelling I have every had the pain of reading,” and included lots of borderline harmful takes on mental illness. And for some reason, that sold us. Heaven knows why. This one was painful. We also have special guest - comedian and cohost of The Beanball podcast Joey Price! Mean Book Club is four ladies (UCB, BuzzFeed, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit. It's fun. It's cathartic. It's perfect for your commute. New podcast (almost) every Tuesday! Here’s the Season 16 reading list:

  1. Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
  2. The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Kim Michele Richardson
  3. Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld
