The Overdue boys celebrate Children's Book Week by discussing A Bear Called Paddington by Michael Bond.

Ep 646 - A Bear Called Paddington, by Michael Bond

Did you know that before Gillian Flynn brought us the book Gone Girl, the movie Gone Girl, and the concept of "Gone Girl-ing" someone, she wrote a murder mystery about a different kind of unhealthy family dynamic!

Ep 645 - Sharp Objects, by Gillian Flynn

This episode is about Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis, the complete edition containing both The Story of a Childhood and The Story of a Return.

Ep 644 - Persepolis, by Marjane Satrapi

Holes! We all need 'em, we all love 'em. This is a book where a boy is sentenced to dig a bunch of holes out in the desert because he was accused and convicted of a crime he didn't commit.

Ep 643 - Holes, by Louis Sachar

Lo's award-winning novel seeks to shine a light on marginalized experiences from mid-century San Francisco. What's most impressive is how she's synthesized all of her research into a couple of fresh, compelling characters - allowing the story to honor the historical record without feeling overly bound by it.
