It's that time of year! That time when things get busy and reading gets dropped! How can we keep reading during this intense season? In this episode, we discuss a concept we're calling Hustle Bustle Books (#hustlebustlebooks), or books that can be carried with you and read in small chunks. We don't always agree on what makes a good Hustle Bustle Book, but we've got lots of laughs and suggestions for you!
