Plans Are Booked

Chapter 69: The Favorites by Layne Fargo


Listen Later

Ever wondered what it's like to listen to three figure skating super fans geek out on a book about ice dancing? This week's episode is for you. We chat about growing up in the land of Nancy Kerrigan, the competitive nature of the sport, and who we were picturing as the main characters. We also deep dive on Layne Fargo's acknowledgement for author Taylor Jenkins Reid, and how the book's structure reminded us of Daisy Jones & the Six. Then, we have a passionate discussion about the marketing of a book and how cover art and jacket summaries influence both what we purchase and our expectations before we begin reading. In our catch up this week, Kaitlin shares about her 40th birthday party, Steph completes a giant step (pun intended) at the flip house, and Molly recovers from a food coma after several back-to-back restaurant meals. In what we're reading this week, Steph is devouring an exposé about Meta, Molly finally starts Onyx Storm, and Kaitlin picks up a mystery praised by Stephen King.
