We're so ready to discuss the most flattering pair of shared jeans you've ever owned! After a few weeks in the arena, a gentle realist YA is just what we need, so let's dive into the shared adventures of Lena, Tibby, Carmen and Bee.

Up for discussion: Joe's flip flop appreciation for two stories in the book and the other two in the film, the antiquated ableism of the book, frustration at the sex of the director, and the amazing ferocity of America Ferrera in the film. Plus: a surprising discussion of the book's ties to 9/11 and a plagiarism scandal that ties back to Gossip Girl!
