It might sound like a romance episode, but it's not. In one of our highest ratings, Ian tells Brooke and Bridgett about a book that introduced him to one of the podcast's favorite authors, John Darnielle, who you may know from The Mountain Goats.

This week's read is Devil House by John Darnielle, a book so amazing and jam packed that we've barely fit any of it into this episode. Listen to us talk about it and then go buy it!

We also talk about Pizza Hut breaking up with people and how we're trying to get our podcast to be the soundtrack of Applebee's.

Listen weekly for more episodes featuring books and conversations on horror novels, romance books, and become a part of the friendship behind the production company Imaginary Comma.
