The Countdown

Show Notes

Countdown #508

Novels. Graphic novels. Comics. Non-fiction books. Fantasy. Self-Help. Horror. Superhero. All types of books and genres are in play as the lads attempt to quantify the unquantifiable and countdown the very best books they both have read through to this point in their lives.

And you could not hope for more different lists. Prepare yourself for an episode without much in the way of outrage, derision, snorts of disbelief, or rueful chuckles at what might have been, as Wayne has read only two on Paul's list and Paul has read none of what Wayne is putting out there.

So get ready to add to your TBR Pile, as The Countdown stutters but resumes!
