Round One, Match Up Five:
Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give
Discussed in: Episode 129
The Details: In light of the unjust loss of Black lives in America and of the Black Lives Matter movement, we wanted to share an episode from 2018 where, for our book club, we discussed one of our favorite YA literature books for the classroom, Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give. In the episode, we discuss the novel and share pairings including Gabrielle Union's We're Going to Need More Wine, Clemantine Wamariya and Elizabeth Weil's The Girl Who Smiled Beads: A Story of War and What Comes After, and Nic Stone's Dear Martin.
Emily Henry's Beach Read
Discussed in: Episode 132
The Details: In this Unabridged podcast book club episode, we're discussing Emily Henry's Beach Read. We have a great discussion and pair this one with some other great reads, including Mary Beth Keane’s Ask Again, Yes,Kate Clayborn’s Love Lettering, and Josie Silver’sThe Two Lives of Lydia Bird. Beach Read is a contemporary romance that balances witty banter with more serious themes.
Round One, Match Up Six:
Christina Lauren's In a Holidaze
Discussed in: Episode 154
The Details: In this Book Club episode of the Unabridged Podcast, we talk about Christina Lauren's holiday rom-com, In a Holidaze. After our Bookish Check-in, where we each share what we're reading, we chat about the novel and then offer another holiday book recommendation. We end with our Give Me One and talk about holiday songs that make us cringe.
Adib Khorram's Darius the Great Is Not Okay
Discussed in: Episode 159
The Details: In the first book club discussion of 2021, we are thrilled to discuss Adib Khorram's Darius the Great Is Not Okay. This brilliant young adult lit book addresses so many important topics including family heritage, bullying, friendship, family dynamics, managing depression, and so many other issues with nuance and humor.
