Pig blood and teenagers, what could go wrong? A lot apparently. Listen to hear about Stephen King's first novel, Carrie and more importantly the 76' and 2013 movie versions of the novel. While Carrie is for sure not a superhero, it is hard to call her a villain. Some of these teens had it coming is all I'm saying.

War, aliens and Sydney's second favorite Kurt. This week we cover Slaughterhouse-Five, a wild book about a POW who also is abducted by aliens. Billy Pilgrim has truly done it all. If we were better podcast hosts we could tell you how much of this book is based on true events but we aren't so I can only guarantee that World War II is real but according to the government aliens have not come to earth. Anyways this episode also mentions dicks and tits, what more could you want?

This book has it all and by it all I mean people escaping from the same guy over and over again. If you like the idea of books coming to life then the book Inkheart is for you. Listen to Delaney and Sydney realize that they actually only remember the sequel and somehow talk about Fifty Shades of Grey during this episode of a children's book.

He's into parkour, she's stuck inside her house with an autoimmune disease, can I make it anymore obvious? This week we're covering Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon, so get ready for some plot twist spoilers. Sydney thinks this is another Romeo and Juliet, and Delaney thinks it's Flowers in the attic without the incest. It is really just another great YA novel, so listen up boys and girls you are about to fall in love.

This episode we discuss the infamous book "If I Did It" by OJ Simpson where he gives a detailed (and hypothetical) account of how he murdered his ex wife, Nicole Brown, and her friend Ron Goldman. We will never know if OJ really did it but this book is insane regardless so listen to Sydney and Delaney try to figure out why anyone thought writing this would be a good idea.
