Waddup, book nerds! Our special guest Mike Scollins (Late Night with Seth Meyers, SNL) forced us to read Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. A #1 NYT bestseller in 2011, this book was inspired by an audio guide to a King Tut exhibit! It spawned the popular but controversial Netflix series in 2017. But why? WE MUST FIND OUT!

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!

We’ll be off the next two weeks for the holidays, but see you back on the pod January 7!
