61 - Time for another happy hour chatting about The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins. This week we're...taking it easy and drinkin' A Glass of Wine. It's par for the course in an episode where we realize in real time that Brandi thought she'd read all of the pages....but didn't. We speculate some more on Brandi's theory from last week, play a fun little game called The Top Ten Completely Insane Red Flags Jane Ignores, and we talk about parts of our lives that we would want to stay the same if we somehow became overnight successes.
Pages Discussed: Chapters 21-28
Next Week: We finish this dang book!

60 - Welcome back for another happy hour with your book club BFFs as we continue our chat about The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins. This week we're savoring the emerald green Mrs. Rochester. We talk about our own experiences of a contradiction Jane seems to be experiencing within herself: loving the comfort she gets from Eddie and yet hating that she needs it. We explore changes we've made in our lives we once swore we could never see ourselves making. And Brandi *conjures* up a whopper of a theory. Get ready for a very silly episode.

58 - Grab your cocktail and join us for our final chat on The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. This week we're drinking a punny Cereal Killer while discussing endings we pre-mourned as all of Chicago seems to have pre-mourned the end of the fair, and our mixed feelings of empathy for people who do bad things. AND since it's our final chat on the subject - we RATE this book! Just how drunk is it? Listen and find out!
