Show Notes
With this we say goodbye. Tune in for our season 4 and series finale of Booked On Sundays. We've kept it spoiler-free, and we launch into all the lore for books from all episodes. It's a giggly and emotional one, including podcast trivia, some true throwbacks, and our somewhat foggy memory of early episodes.
This has been an incredible 4 seasons filled with hot takes, bookish chit chat, and only a handful of spicy badges to Rachel's chagrin.Thanks to our moms for listening to only the safe-for-moms episodes. Thanks to our friends and family who have tuned in. Thanks to our social media following for following. And thank you to everyone who's listened and may listen in the future. As of now, you're free on Sundays. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
More from Booked on Sundays
For our final book of our series, we've ended on a bit of messy one. But as per usual with book clubs, sometimes the best reads are reads you disagree on, reads that are chaotic, reads you don't quite understand? And Blind Owl by Sadegh Hedayat is all of those things. We get into our true feelings on novellas, imagery as patterns, and pose the question "to what end?".
Attention! This is your mess leader! Do you enjoy dystopian queer chaotic journeys through time? What about all our hot takes about the value of AI? Or perhaps you're a little alien trying to figure out your purpose. Well if any of those apply, then we've got a new episode for you and it's a delight! We are diving into science fiction with our discussion of Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh.
What do you call a chaotic beach at night? Wild Dark Shore perhaps? What if this chaotic beach includes tons of seals, a curious person washed ashore, and an isolated family protecting a treasure of great importance? Well that's also Wild Dark Shore! Tune into this episode about Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy as we dig into the wild, the dark, and the shore - dissecting character relationships, climate change, and precocious children.
Have you ever dreamed of being whisked away to an English mansion? How do you feel about rhododendrons? An older man? Societal expectations of the 1930s? Rebecca has it all! We're perhaps thrilled, perhaps just satisfied, and perhaps confused in our latest episode where we discuss Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier. Tune into book club with us as we dig into this unfortunate narrator, the dos and don'ts of maintaining a large house, and whether the movie is worth a watch.
Looking for a little historical humor? Or maybe some weird vibes through intriguingly witty text? Well, I think this month's book club pick might just satisfy the need. Join us and tune into our third episode of Season 4 discussing You Dreamed of Empires by Álvaro Enrigue. In this episode, we diving into this brat, top-tier airplane book and talking colonialism, conquistadors, and how one decision can shift all of history. Shoutout to the horse girlies - this ones for you.
