The Grim Reader

Catch up with The Grim Readers this week as they chat about their love of Paul Rudd, in particular his character Dave Paris in "Romeo and Juliet." Did anyone else know that his name was Dave Paris? Not to judge, but Dave doesn't seem like a very Shakespearean name. We also talk about reading, the pressure we can put ourselves under to read, and the times when we get into a bit of a rut with reading. Our books this week are "Never Suck A Dead Man's Hand: Curious Adventures of CSI" by Dana Kollmann, and "Cow Girl" by Kirsty Eyre.
