2021 Revisited

Cracked Spines

In the final episode of 2021, Sarah and Amelia dig through their year's worth of reading materials in a ruthless gladiatorial death match of arbitrary categories and favoritism (but like, in a chill way). Triumphs are hard-won, emotional depths are plumbed, and favors are ruthlessly extorted under false pretenses and then upheld as law. Join us on a journey through our top picks in categories like "best nonfiction," "juiciest dynamic," and "guaranteed to rip your heart out and eat it in front of you."
