Boozy Book Club

In this episode we do the Unpopular Opinions Book Tag, as well as some Rapid Fire Book Tag questions! We ask ourselves some deep philosophical questions throughout the episode such as, what would kill a victorian age child? Are Aurors just wizard cops? and also, where is Josh Hutcherson? #WhereisJoshHutcherson. Join us for a chill, laid back, underprepared episode as we crack open some White Claws and delve into our controversial book opinions!

In our first "Morning After Minisode" episode we do the Midyear Freakout Tag! Join us as we discuss our favourite books so far in 2020, our newest fictional crushes, and our reading goals for the rest of the year. Please see our note below. Thank you for listening!

A Note from Adrianna:

During our tag we briefly Discuss Rainbow Rowell's comic book Pumpkinheads (2019), illustrated by Faith Erin Hicks. I mention that I read Eleanor & Park (2012). I read it uncritically and hadn't touched it since, which makes me mentioning it even more thoughtless. After recoring I read an article detailing the racism in Rowell's book, which is now being made into a movie. I want to be clear that we don't support Rowell and the racist and stereotypical depiction of Park in her book, and we will not be supporting her in the future. Below are some links to read more, including Wendy M Xu of Angry Girl Comic's review who was one of (if not the first) to call out Rowell's racism back in 2014.

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to Boozy Book Club. A podcast about all things books. Books you love, books you love to hate, and a special (usually very strong) drink to go along with it. Every week we will discuss a different book, book series, or book related theme, talk about what we are currently reading, and mix up a fun book themed cocktail. Grab yourself a drink (alcoholic or not) and get cozy with us! Thanks for listening!

- Abbey and Adrianna.
