Special guest Shayna Hodge (they/them) joins the show to discuss Rachel Yoder's splashy debut novel. In episode 357, Luke Elliott & James Bailey ask about Shayna's immensely popular book club (run on behalf of the "Parallel Worlds" book store), what drew them to this novel, who writes body horror best, the hidden labor women often take on at home, what the boldest/most controversial choice the author made brings to the book, and how we all feel about the unimpressive husband. Join them all again next week when they tackle the 2024 film adaptation by Marielle Heller starring Amy Adams!
