Week 2 of New Reads November 2022 is all about R. Eric Thomas’s Kings of B’More, a YA novel that celebrates platonic love and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Episode 218 journeys into all kinds of conversational territory, including the importance of books as “empathy engines,” some great fictional parenting moments, our collective understanding of queer love stories, popularity, the outsized nature of teenaged feelings, COVID in literature, and more.
