Join Mary and Renee as they jump back into the world of 2000s and 2010s Young Adult Fiction. Each week, they discuss a different YA book from their youth and pose hard hitting questions: Why aren't any of these characters in therapy? Is this incest? Why were we so obsessed with toxic vampire boys? Each episode is full of laughs, absurd teen drama, memories of the early 2000s, and a cat who is hellbent on derailing this production. Tune in weekly to see if Mary and Renee can every answer the ultimate question: Why a book?

Thursday Mar 11, 2021
Liz Hall’s life was cut short, but her afterlife feels like it goes on forever. Try to find any shred of plot as Mary explains what happens after you die in Gabrielle Zevin’s, Elsewhere. Liz ages backwards from 15, has a big angst party about it, dates a 35 year old man (which is fine because he only looks 17), and accomplishes exactly 2 things before getting sent back to Earth as a newborn baby. Wear a bike helmet, kids.

Zevin, Gabrielle. Elsewhere. Douglas & McIntyre, 2005.
