Olivia Day on "They Never Learn" by Layne Fargo Best Book Ever Podcast

    • Books

I liked today’s book.
And then I felt very weird that I liked it.
Olivia Day, my guest who brought this confusing, twisty book into my life, is the co-host of the Thrillers by the Book Club pod. She is a long-time lover of thrillers, crime, and mystery stories, and a graduate of International Thriller Writer’s Online Thriller School. Despite the grim thesis of the book we are discussing, Olivia and I had a lot of laughs as we discussed this book. And we drew a pretty effective through-line between the books that represent women’s ultimate fantasies, whether they are sexual or, you know, murderous.
