BookloversRomance ReduxWe’ve talked about romance novels before on the podcast, but this episode takes a different approach, because Joseph has a lot of questions about the genre.. Why do we read romance? What are the implications of the genre on readers, and how do we as a society view romance novels? For that matter, what’s the difference between a romance book and a romance movie? Jess and Rea explain the importance of romance, the reimagining of the marriage plot, and major trends in romance, all whilst swooning over the many romance novels they’ve read recently.

BookloversYellowfaceWho gets to tell what stories? It’s a question authors—and all of us—have grappled with for years now, and R. F. Kuang’s novel Yellowface digs into that question and pulls out a very sloppy and difficult main character. A skewering, funny, intense look at the publishing industry warts and all, Yellowface also digs into the messy world of female friendships, jealousy, and cultural appropriation.
In this episode, we’re talking through Kuang’s latest novel, plus sharing our feelings about improv (not great, per Jess), and catching up on Joseph’s challenge to watch all the Twilight movie

BookloversCatch-22Here in 2023, everyone knows the general meaning of a catch-22. It’s a situation where you can’t win no matter what you do. You’re trapped, you’re stuck, and there’s no other option. But in 1961, when Joseph Heller’s seminal novel Catch-22 was published, there was no phrase for what it meant to be that kind of trapped. Thankfully for us all, Doc Daneeka, the endlessly bummed medical professional of the Air Force Corps on Pianosa, breaks the catch-22 down for Captain Yossarian, an Air Force bombardier trapped in a tremendous amount of bureaucratic red tape while everyo...

BookloversThe Silence of the GirlsMythological retellings seem to be everywhere these days. Since Madeline Miller’s novel The Song of Achilles was released in 2011, many authors—mostly women—have taken up the effort to share the untold stories of the many female, nonbinary and queer characters of ancient mythology. A shining example of this type of storytelling is Pat Barker’s novel The Silence of the Girls, which focuses on a well-known part of Greek mythology, the Trojan War, but tells the story from an altogether unexpected voice: Briseis, the former queen of Lyrnessus and present slave of Achilles. Although she’s considered a minor char...

BookloversWeird FictionWe live in a context where the boundaries of reality are constantly tested by scientific discoveries, new technologies, and attempts to describe our world. Weird fiction is a genre-spanning tendency with a long history that attests to this shifting sense of the real. On this episode, we survey weird fiction from Lovecraft and Kafka to the present, focusing on contemporary innovators and trends in speculative writing that keep our minds focused on the weird. Along the way, we consider talking animals, how cockroaches might inspire dancing, and the pervasive weirdness in TV, movies, and video games.

BookloversShaken, Not Stirred: The World of BondHopefully, by the time you’re reading this, James Bond superfan Jess is tucked into her seat in the theater with a bucket of popcorn the same size as her head, ready to watch No Time to Die. The vaunted 25th (or 27th, if you’re feisty) film in the Bond franchise has seen its release rescheduled four times now due to rehires and the COVID-19 pandemic; it was originally meant to hit the big screen in November 2019, but here we are, two years later, hoping for the best. But even while the film limps toward the finish line, there’s stil...

BookloversThe 2021 EisnersWe’re here with our first official mini-episode! And what better place to start than with a format that is near and dear to all of our hearts? Celebrating annual and lifelong achievements in the comics industry, the Eisner Awards have been presented since 1988 at San Diego Comic-Con (or at least as long as there isn’t a global pandemic they are). We’ve taken a good hard look at this year’s winners and nominees, and we’re here with a rundown of the big stories from the Eisners, plus some of our favorites from both this year’s pool of winn...

BookloversMy Heart Is a Chainsaw & The Only Good IndiansFall is in the air and Halloween is only two months away, so that means it's the perfect time to talk about horror fiction and horror movies. While we start with a general discussion of the scary stuff we love (or appreciate at a safe distance), we then turn to the author Stephen Graham Jones and discuss his award-winning novel "The Only Good Indians" and his latest book, "My Heart is a Chainsaw." We're huge fans and we hope you will pick both of them up.
If you liked this episode and you want to hear Jones read from and...

BookloversGetting Into AudiobooksOne of the things all three of us have noticed over time is that a lot of readers have a question about audiobooks:
Is it really reading if I’m only listening to it?
Audiobooks are a format that tends to have its own stigma—that listening to a book instead of reading it with your eyeballs is somehow a lesser effort, one that takes something away. But we’re here to say that is patently untrue: for some readers, by audio is the optimal format, and there’s no reason to believe that listening to a story is any less of...

BookloversWhiskey When We’re DryIn the 1940s, ‘50s and ‘60s, Westerns proliferated across film, television and books. Oh, the books, with their staunch brown covers, gunslingers and paint ponies, staring down the reader as though they were coming directly for us. But since then, the Western—especially the Western novel—has taken a backseat to other genres of exploration, especially other types of historical fiction and science fiction. So what is a Western, exactly? And who is still reading them? And how, exactly, does the Western genre diversify while still staying true to its historical definitions?
In this episode, we’re delving into these questions...

BookloversThe Prettiest StarIf you listened to our previous episode, during which we discussed Carmen Maria Machado’s memoir In the Dream House, then you’ve heard us talk about the importance of preserving stories, both good and bad, especially about the LGBTQ+ community. And The Prettiest Star holds a similar place in queer literature, telling the uncomfortable but important story of a young man who returns home to his small town in Ohio after contracting HIV in New York City. In 1986, Brian’s return, which would under normal circumstances be a joyous occasion for any family, is instead fraught and stressful for his pa...

BookloversIn the Dream HouseAfter extricating herself from a psychologically abusive relationship that lasted over a year, Carmen Maria Machado went in search of the kind of book we talk about a lot on this podcast: one that would help her process what she had experienced. But instead of finding a sea of options, as there would be for the loss of a parent, joining a new community, or raising a child as a single parent, she found nothing that would help her deal with the destructive whirlwind that had cut a path through her life. So Machado did what so many queer women...

BookloversMemorialIn July of 2020, we were all struck by Bryan Washington’s short story collection Lot, which takes readers deep into the Hispanic and Black neighborhoods of Houston, describing the lives of apartment complexes and storefronts via the people who occupy and care for them. So to prepare for Summer Reading and our kickoff event with the man himself, we’re reading and discussing Washington’s novel Memorial. Memorial returns to Houston via couple Benson and Mike, who are pretty much definitely at the end of their relationship. A wrench is thrown into their lives when Mike finds out his dad is dyi...

After finding a small pulsating blob on the side of a tremendous sleeping bear, scavenger Rachel brings it home in hopes that her partner Wick will be able to make use of it. But when the blob begins to grow, take shape and ultimately talk, Wick realizes that Rachel is in for more than she bargained for, but Rachel protects her ch...

BookloversTenth of December: StoriesIn 2013, Booklovers read George Saunders’ short story collection Tenth of December, which was considered one of the best books of the year by a number of outlets, including the New York Times, and was widely heralded as a masterwork of the format. Saunders is considered one of our greatest living American writers, and his talent as a writer and creative thinker seems to know no limits. So when Booklovers met to discuss Tenth of December, we were shocked at what we heard:
The group hated it.
So in 2021, Jess decided to return to the short story collection that caused such st...

BookloversJude the ObscureWhen Thomas Hardy wrote his final novel, Jude the Obscure, a reader wonders what may have been going through his head. After writing Tess of the d’Urbervilles, which shocked the Victorian England countryside, Hardy released Jude in 1895 in a serialized format. While Jude was a hit, it was also breathtakingly scandalous, earning the nickname “Jude the Obscene” and causing some booksellers to sell copies of certain sections in brown paper bags. Hardy, dismayed by the reception of his novels, turned to poetry and never wrote fiction again.
As local kid Jude Fawley grows into a young adult, he is endles...

BookloversMusic WritingMusic is the oldest type of media we have, both in terms of when it was probably created (40,000 years ago) and when it was first recorded (the late 1800s). Music is in the background of our lives from beginning to end: from birdsongs and train whistles to lullabies and symphonies. And as tricky as it may be to write about music, that hasn’t stopped critics, analysts, theorists, biographers, and fans from trying their hardest anyway. In this episode, we look at our relationships with music and music writing, and how what we know about music informed what we read fo...

BookloversTrue CrimeTo say that true crime is popular is to say that ice cream is popular. Sure, it’s true, but that doesn’t really cover the scope of its popularity: there are different flavors and styles that broaden its reach to just about anyone who wants a taste. In this episode, we’re discussing true crime and why readers, listeners and watchers love it so much. We discuss how true crime came to be, and Jess stumps for nonviolent true crime as a solid alternative for readers who think true crime isn’t for them because it’s too graphic. We also di...

BookloversDeacon King KongThe topic of this episode, James McBride’s stellar novel Deacon King Kong, explores a rara avis among book club reads: it’s funny. Not just amusing or humorous, but laugh-out-loud, tears-in-your-eyes kind of funny, and thanks to McBride’s skills as an author, Deacon King Kong is also full of heart and hope. Following the misadventures of neighborhood drunk Sportcoat after he shoots the community drug dealer, Deacon King Kong explores the lives and livelihoods of the residents of the Cause Houses, a large housing project on the banks of the East River in Brooklyn in 1969. McBride’s ability to use h...

Every January, the American Library Association holds its Youth Media Awards, which include eighteen individual awards: fifteen awards for excellence in writing for youth, two for lifetime achievement in writing and supporting children’s literature, and lastly, one special award that considers the readers of books and what works for them, rather than awarding the merit of the creator.

The main character, Lauren, lives in California in carefully cultivated safety with her family in a walled-in cul-de-sac while the ravages of climate change, severe poverty, robbery and drug addiction rage outside. After a major tragedy forces Lauren and the rest of the neighborhood outside the walls of the cul-de-sac, she hits the road and heads for higher ground, hoping to find a new safety in northern California. As she travels, Lauren gains followers, both physically and spiritually, as she fleshes out the...

Along the way, we recalled our earliest encounters with Golding's novel to the best of our ability and examined both stories in light of the most pressing cultural and political crises of their respective moments of publication.

BookloversSpy Fiction with a TwistSpy novels are driven by a set of interrelated questions: Who or what is really in charge? What is the true mission? And how will they get out of this one? On this episode, we discuss two novels with entertaining responses to these questions. Both Who is Vera Kelly? by Rosalie Knecht and This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone offer surprising twists on the spy novel formula and allow us a way in to talk about the appeal of spy fiction and what we as readers want out of our books.

As the Ramsay family spends its day at the blustery northern shore of Scotland, family friend Lily Briscoe attempts to capture the family via painting. Ten years later, what remains of the family returns to the same place, and Lily attempts to complete her painting, although the Ramsays seem to remain just out of reach. But to describe the plot of this novel is to miss the depth and creativity of Woolf’s writing and pers...

BookloversSlaughterhouse-Five, Two WaysThere’s no questioning the tremendous impact that Kurt Vonnegut has had on writing. The inimitable author penned dozens of novels, short stories, essays and more over his life, and none is better known than Slaughterhouse-Five, the rare beloved school-assigned novel once described to Jess as “World War II, but with aliens”. At 51 years old, Slaughterhouse-Five is still as relevant, biting and comical as ever, but to deepen its legend, a graphic novel adaptation was released in September 2020. The source material is clearly handled with kid gloves by Ryan North and Albert Monteys, who do their best to bring Dresden, time t...

While the families are pressed into change by the Vietnam War and its impact on the country, the war itself lingers at the very edges of both books, which are centered primarily around relationships between children who carve their own paths and parents who want an American experience for their kids (whatever that means). While On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is an autobiographical novel and The Be...

We focus on the in-over-their-heads heroes of both novels, Lionel Essrog and Oedipa Maas, as they try to do right by people who had past impact on them. Despite seeming disparate at the outset, both novels feature mysteries and seedy underbellies, big city semi-noir vibes, and plenty of conspiracy to go around.

BookloversRomanceRomance as a genre of pleasure reading has always been looked down upon as lesser when compared to lofty genres like literary fiction and classics, but make no mistake: romance is the bestselling pleasure reading genre in publishing, and in times of crisis—from the Great Depression to the COVID-19 pandemic—book sales overall may drop, but romance sales go through the roof. Why is this? What makes romance so appealing to readers, even when so many people hold such a negative view of it? On this episode, we discuss romance’s role in publishing, in pleasure reading, and in repres...

This pair of seemingly disparate titles—one about a performing arts high school, the other about a tech startup—seem like they have little in common, but beyond having striking covers, they both explore what it means for the reader to be able to trust a narrator in contemporary reading. We also talk about our online lives and how they differ from our in person lives.

We close with a discussion of some of our favorite stories from both collections. Come for the dialogue and comity, stay for the publishing awards hot takes and a hilarious anecdote about Tamagotchi.

As with many stories about North Korea, The Orphan Master’s Son is grim, violent, and disturbing, but as with many works of fiction, it is also funny, hopeful, and sprinkled with small scenes of joy. We consider the role of a novel like The Orphan Master’s Son as a guide to the harsh realities of life in North Korea, and how fiction can offer readers broader educational scope for serious topics than reading only nonficti...

Although these novels were written over six years apart, they share some big traits regarding narrative style and trust, how family helps define main characters and their motives, and control.
