This week, we decided to keep things serious and tackle the tough topics that are shaping the world in which we live. Which, of course, means we're answering questions inspired by Goodreads and our friend Andy Whisenant from B&H Publishing. Listen in as we answer:

• You are traveling on a Lord of the Rings style journey. You can only take 3 characters with you that are featured in books you've read this year. Who is on your squad? 
• Describe your favorite book in the most boring way possible
• What would you name your book club? 
• This year, which book have you learned the most and why? 
• What are you reading this weekend?
