Sadly, it was a bit of a miss for Joe and Alex this time. Listen to how the brothers discuss how they are such book snobs that they couldn't get into something as interesting as a celebrity memoir. They do have a good time discussing it none the less. And they hope that they get more recommendations in the future. So don't feel shy giving us more books to read!

For this month, Alex and Joe read a strange novel by one of Joe's favorite people of all time. We read The Liar by Stephen Fry. This is kind of a spy novel but not. It is also a coming of age novel, but again not. One thing that it is, is funny. Or at least Joe thinks that. Give us a listen to find out why Alex thinks otherwise.

Today we are talking about The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. We don't delve too deeply into the controversy about the author, as neither of us looked too hard into it. It didn't really have much to do with the assigned reading. What we do discuss though, is how much we both enjoyed rereading this fun little story about an Indian leaving the reservation. We hope you get something out of this discussion also.
