Mara and Josh start the year off right with Philip Pullman's Clockwork, a novella about how the past sets the future in motion. Let's hope all the horrors we went through in 2020 helped fix this coming year, yeah?

Also discussed: Billie Eilish, Juice WRLD, the Secret, Geico commercials, Gwent, and maple syrup.

Next month we will be reading Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han.
