Description

We tried something a little different for this episode and chose to partner up and cover two books instead of four.
 
Aileen and Lauren read Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman, the smart, warm, and uplifting story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes that the only way to survive is to open your heart. The book is soon to be a major motion picture produced by Reese Witherspoon.

And Josie and Alisa read Madeline Miller’s The Song of Achilles, a tale of gods, kings, immortal fame, and the human heart. A dazzling literary feat that brilliantly reimagines Homer’s enduring masterwork, The Iliad.
