    We read. You watch.  Today, Magda and Lindsay are talking all about Andy Weir’s “Project Hail Mary” in anticipation of the movie, releasing on March 20th.  Now, even though they’ve spent every day since finishing it talking to everyone they know, and even some they don’t know about how amazing it is, they realize that it may have been a while since some of you have read it. Don’t worry, our girls got you. They’ll discuss the things you need to remember from the book and all the things they’re dying to see in the movie. #projecthailmary #projecthailmarymovie #andyweir #bookadaptations #bookrecs    Books mentioned in the episode: “Boom Town“ by Nic Stone “So Old, So Young“ by Grant Ginder “The Correspondent“ by Virginia Evans “Project Hail Mary“ by Andy Weir “The Martian“ by Andy Weir “Emma of 83rd Street“ by Audrey Bellezza and Emily Harding “Elizabeth of East Hampton“ by Audrey Bellezza “Beach Read“ by Emily Henry “People We Meet on Vacation“ by Emily Henry “The Women“ by Kristin Hannah “The Great Alone“ by Kristin Hannah “Atmosphere“ by Taylor Jenkins Reid “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo“ by Taylor Jenkins Reid “Sky Full of Elephants“ by Cebo Campbell “Listen for the Lie“ by Amy Tintera “Bride“ by Ali Hazelwood “Dungeon Crawler Carl“ by Matt Dinniman   Email us!  Literally Books Website Literally Books Instagram Magda's Instagram Lindsay's Instagram Literally Books YouTube Literally Books TikTok   Intro & Outro Song: "Would it Kill You," courtesy of The Solder Thread

    ...Literally Wuthering Heights - Book Readers React

    This week’s episode taught Magda and Lindsay a valuable lesson: a bad book can be made better by an even worse movie. That’s right, they’re discussing all things Wuthering Heights…and “Wuthering Heights.” Okay, okay. So even though they may not have loved everything about Emily Brontë’s sole work, they definitely agree it has depth and is, in its own right, revolutionary. The movie…well, that’s another story….literally.    Books mentioned in the episode:  “Maryr!“ by Kaveh Akbar “Hope in the Dark“ by Rebecca Solnit “The Tattered Cover“ by Ellery Adams “The Gate of the Feral Gods“ by Matt Dinniman “Wuthering Heights“ by Emily Brontë “Agnes Grey“ by Anne Brontë “Jane Eyre“ by Charlotte Brontë “Samantha: The Next Chapter“ by Fiona Davis  “Deep Cuts“ by Holly Brickley “Carrie“ by Stephen King “Foundation“ by Isaac Asmiov   Email us!  Literally Books Website Literally Books Instagram Magda's Instagram Lindsay's Instagram Literally Books YouTube   Intro & Outro Song: "Would it Kill You," courtesy of The Solder Thread

    ...Literally Half His Age by Jennette McCurdy

    As we learned with “I’m Glad My Mom Died,” Jennette McCurdy is not an author you turn to for comfortable conversations.  Her debut fiction book, “Half His Age,” amps up the squidginess 1,000% and has Magda and Lindsay squirming in their seats as they talk about the age gap tale, which is told from a 17-year-old’s perspective about her relationship with her 40-year-old teacher.  One thing we can say is this episode is anything but boring.    Books mentioned in the episode:  “An Academic Affair“ by Jodi McAlister “Katabasis“ by R.F. Kuang “Martyr!“ by Kaveh Akbar “James“ by Percival Everett “Trees“ by Percival Everett “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn“ by Mark Twain “Erasure“ by Percival Everett “The Time Traveler’s Wife“ by Audrey Niffenegger “Life Out of Order“ by Audrey Niffenegger “Eragon“ by Christopher Paolini “Half His Age“ by Jennette McCurdy  “I’m Glad My Mom Died“ by Jeanette McCurdy  “My Dark Vanessa“ by Kate Elizabeth Russell   Email us!  Literally Books Website Literally Books Instagram Magda's Instagram Lindsay's Instagram Literally Books YouTube Literally Books TikTok   Intro & Outro Song: "Would it Kill You," courtesy of The Solder Thread
