Derik of Ratchet Book Club is here, at my request, to discuss a Middle Grad chapter book for which everyone I know has fond memories. But looking back 27 years later? You really need to think twice before you recommend this to kids. Especially little white boys.

My beloved Lauren Emily Whalen is back to discuss one of the greatest YA novels of all time: Jude Blume's FOREVER. Ralph aside, this is groundbreaking novel that continues to uphold some of the greatest tenets of writing for teens: treat them with respect and dignity.

My wonderful, dear friend Tav (http://www.twitter.com/taverleejaye) is here to discuss another Agatha Christie stalwart: Miss Marple. One of the most essential whodunnits of its time, 4:50 FROM PADDINGTON has a cast of characters who are all, and I quote myself, "low-grade shitty."

The Tommy & Tuppence/Miss Marple mashup mentioned at the end is BY THE PRICKING OF MY THUMBS.

This episode... does not have a lot to do with books. Sorry! But we do go ham (pun intended) talking about America and farms and American self-definition and food. Lots and lots and lots of food.

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!

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.

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.
