Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

Andy and Dani go to space! Ryan Gosling plays a spider, science beach reads, could the world actually save itself,  Dani thought this book was from the early 2000’s, long distance space relationships, Slender Man DeVito, and heroic statues.

Andy and Dani take on vigilantism. Dani still can't pronounce words, white male POV is boring, raising standards from dumb fun, stealing from corporations, low level political commentary, and secret vigilante friends.

Razorblade Tears by S. A. Cosby

Andy and Dani read some vigilante mystery. Dani is not a control freak, figuring out the ending of a book half way through, there’s a lotttt of murder, lock your doors, is Andy Catwoman, and casting the book for a screen adaptation. 

Andy and Dani talk about their most hated and favorite words. Words that sound bad vs. words with bad images, Andy surreptitiously avoids his least favorite word, Dani has lugubrious feelings toward meat, and decadent desserts.

Jack Reacher: Killing Floor by Lee Child

Andy and Dani read some big time action. Killing off the sexy, better looking brother, FinSLAY and Hubble-Bubble gum, a fun jail slumber party, Dani comes up with a great money maker plan, one paragraph sex scenes, a really old Jack Reacher, and favorite quotes.

Andy and Dani talk about other authors they have revisited and their works. Andy refuses to learn, Dani shares her love for the show "I Survived", can you believe we talk about Cadfael, finding notes in used books, and the difference between male and female authors when describing victims in crime novels.

One Last Stop Casey McQuiston

Andy and Dani revisit an author and revisit their love of public transit. Hipsters in Brooklyn, is Andy too sad boi for romcoms, pancakes vs. french toast vs. waffles, Dani hates PDA, and what T line would you want to be stuck on forever?

Andy and Dani talk about big time love stories. Dani pulls up a list of “the best love stories” from the internet, who is the most pessimistic, Fight Club is the Joe Rogan of movies, and do you love each other or are you both just hot?

How Long ‘Til Black Future Month by N.K. Jemisin

Andy and Dani read more short stories! Dani’s “English brain” was tingling, Andy makes some new rules, will they pick the same top 3 stories, meeting the author on their own terms, and BIG Chad energy.

Andy and Dani drunkenly watch ALL of The Hunger Games movies virtually. Is Jennifer Lawrence a good Katniss, Andy almost ends friendships, they did dirty by Peeta’s hair, for why are the Capitol people the way they are, stop hating bangs, what character would you want to play?
