Surprise! Today the girls are chatting up a book very personal to them: Mom Brain by one of the girls, Nicole Hackett.

As always, this isn't Goodreads with a mic. This is gossip, but make it fiction. And if there's one thing these girls love more than books, it's a good outline. Here's one for the show:

• What is the book about? This isn't back cover copy. In this section, the girls discuss the “point” of the book. Why did the author write this story in particular?
• Good job/bad job. The girls pick one shining moment when the main character was being her best self, and one "wtf" moment when she was being her worst.
• One more page. The girls discuss the part of the book when they couldn't put it down.
• The Bad Guy. The girls pick one person (or group of people) who were the most villain-like and explain why.
• Cast It. The only section that comes with a jingle. The girls cast the main characters in the book using surprisingly limited pop culture knowledge.
