An alternate history with family drama, cultural identity, and extremely detailed descriptions of stamps, this week we read "The Plot Against America" by Phillip Roth and what can we say? This book was way too good for our podcast. Special thanks to our patron Miles for foisting this literary classic on us. We enjoyed the break from our usual trash!

Mean Book Club is four ladies (UCB, BuzzFeed, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit. It's fun. It's cathartic. It's perfect for your commute. New podcast (almost) every Tuesday!

1. The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen
2. Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld
