Words About Books

This week we tackle a current topic... well from like 2 months ago when we put it up on the patreon to be voted on. I don't think anyone is talking about the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remake anymore so we're a little late to the party. That's just the kind of people WAB are. We show up at 3am after all your guests have already gone home bringing too much alcohol and snacks that you are absolutely going to be eating and drinking because we went through all this trouble, you jerk. Now turn on that TV becuase we want to drunkenly watch infomercials while we hit on your obviously tired and pissed off girlfriend. I'm feeling lucky. This description was actually more fun than this book was at any point. Can Dagoth Ur save this book? We'll find out!Support the showBlue Sky - https://bsky.app/profile/wordsaboutbooks.bsky.socialDiscord - https://discord.gg/6BaNRtcP8CThreads - https://www.threads.net/@wordsaboutbookspodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wordsaboutbookspodcastBlog - https://blog.wordsaboutbooks.ninja/

This week Nate talks about one of his favorite TV shows from the late Bush/early Obama years! Burn Notice! The book in question is the first Burn Notice book and it is essentially an episode of the show but with some added confusion where Nate maybe understood the major details but not so much the connective tissue.Support the showBlue Sky - https://bsky.app/profile/wordsaboutbooks.bsky.socialDiscord - https://discord.gg/6BaNRtcP8CThreads - https://www.threads.net/@wordsaboutbookspodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wordsaboutbookspodcastBlog - https://blog.wordsaboutbooks.ninja/

The title says it all. What more can we say? We wrap up this terrible book about forgiving your abusers because, hey, they're people too. Will Vivi finally apologize? No. We already spoiled that. She never once apologizes and, in fact, believes she did nothing wrong. I'm sorry we have to keep discussing this dumpster fire.Support the showBlue Sky - https://bsky.app/profile/wordsaboutbooks.bsky.socialDiscord - https://discord.gg/6BaNRtcP8CThreads - https://www.threads.net/@wordsaboutbookspodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wordsaboutbookspodcastBlog - https://blog.wordsaboutbooks.ninja/

Today the boys discuss one of the worst things we've ever had the displeasure of reading. We didin't go in thinking we'd like it. We figured it would be something that just wasn't for us and we could understand (maybe) why others liked it even if it wasn't for us. What we got instead? Awful. Absoilutely positively awful. This is the story of an abused child learning that her abusive mom was a person too and learning to forgive her... no wait, sorry scratch that last part. She learns to apologize to her abusive mom. Her mom is the one who should be apologized to because her mom is luminous while we're a bunch of stupid idiots and her stupid ungrateful daughter needs to learn that her mom did less than the bare minimum necessary to raise those kids and like... some times things were good right? Right? Garbage. This book (and Vivi) was terrible.Support the showBlue Sky - https://bsky.app/profile/wordsaboutbooks.bsky.socialDiscord - https://discord.gg/6BaNRtcP8CThreads - https://www.threads.net/@wordsaboutbookspodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wordsaboutbookspodcastBlog - https://blog.wordsaboutbooks.ninja/
