22: From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler - Jessie Losch

The dynamite Jessie Losch (https://twitter.com/JessieLosch) is here to guide me through one of her favorite childhood books– one I'd never read before and maybe got more magic out of as an adult than I know I would have as a child. I make a few references to Charlotte's Web, but I decided to hold off on that ep until next week. Rest assured, it is coming in due time!More ways to enjoy FBOL & Emily J.

21: Bridge to Terebithia - Michelle Athy

KidLit September begins with this essential episode. And you know what's coming. But the full extent of it? Michelle Athy (https://twitter.com/PrpleMichelle) and I are here to dig into the text of one of the most moving and beautiful books on American poverty, gender norms, politics, and death we've ever read. I'll go out on a limb to say that it should be taught alongside Steinbeck in high school. It's that important to our understanding of American life. Become a patron: http://www.patreon.com/fuckboisoflitPre-order host Emily Edwards's first novel, VIVIANA VALENTINE GETS HER MAN: bit.ly/VVorderMore ways to enjoy FBOL & Emily J.

20 : The Da Vinci Code - OWWR's Hannah and Laura

Listen. I know it's dumb. I know it's not true. I know it's legitimately bad. But I LOVE the Langdon-verse movies, with poor Tom Hanks huffing and puffing his way through historical European cities trying to salvage the reputation of the Roman Catholic Church. Thank God Hannah and Laura from OWWR are here to talk to me about the sheer inanity of these films.Find OWWR online: Website: https://owwrpod.com/On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-wednesdays-we-read-owwr-pod/id1554901310On Twitter: https://twitter.com/owwrpodOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/owwrpod/Preorder Emily Edwards's first novel, VIVIANA VALENTINE GETS HER MAN: bit.ly/VVorderBecome a Patron of Fuckbois of Literature: patreon.com/fuckboisoflitMore ways to enjoy FBOL & Emily J.
