TW: this book handles topics of BDSM/rough sex in a..questionable manner. while there is no "outright" assault in this book, we felt that many descriptions of the sex met that criteria. listen w/ care and caution and we still love you if you have to skip this one <3

Bad Book Club returns to review the Twilight fanfiction turned kinky nightmare that captivated suburban moms everywhere: Fifty Shades of Grey. This one has it all — a clinically insane man who tells our protagonist to "stay away" while constantly stalking her, the worst stock POC best friend characterization we've ever seen, and some truly heinous sex scenes. ¡Ay, Dios mío!

Kay

OMG YES. Thank you binchies. I've been having a rough week.

Lindsey Di Silvestri

bethany carrasco

how did the binchies know I just finished binging the other 3 bad book club episodes… their minds

kez

YEEEEESSS cooking an extra long, delicious dinner tonight to listen to this whole ep

Kate Ross

I’m not sure if it’s mentioned in the episode but ✨supposedly✨ 9/11 starts the pipeline to Fifty Shades of Grey. - 9/11 inspires Gerard Way to start My Chemical Romance - Stephanie Meyers is inspired by My Chemical Romance to write Twilight - And then, of course, Fifty Shades of Grey is the fanfiction of twilight

Carlee Bryant

Still holding out for ACOTAR content. Even if it’s Julia doing a review. I ended up loving them even though they’re a little cringe.

Leila

every time i see a bad book club notification, i roll a joint in anticipation

Luteal Swan

The Barbies want to be friends with the monster high dolls and the monster high dolls don’t like the Barbie’s

Abby

I never read 50 shades but when it was popular I have a distinct memory of my grandpa telling us that he was reading it to see the hype. So that will be something fun to think about while listening to this episode 🙃🙃

Lova eats babies

Are yall still doing an ACOTAR episode?😍😍😍

Skylar Whitehead

Obsesssssed with bad book club, if you guys want to read some truly heinous for some reason published fanfic i neeeeed to hear you girlies read the heart rate of a mouse 😭 it makes these books seem TAAAAME

Caroline Wisell

guys HI, you have to read this book, Birnam Wood, by Eleanor Catton, not in the bad book club way, more in the fantastic book way, anyway pls read it’s so good

Ella

Birth patrol

Sara Bilska
>>130280406

apparently twilight is also inspired by harry potter? many layers to this rich text

Claire

screaming crying throwing up I once dropped a therapist after she casually told me to “unleash my inner goddess” I had NO IDEA it was a 50 shades reference 💀

Caroline MacRae

PLEASE read My Immortal; the LORE surrounding the fanfic’s creation, the Tara and Raven hoax, the scene and emo movements and the possible Twilight sequel: “Forbidden Fruit: the Temptation of Edward Cullen,” the abundance of fanfic tropes in both fanfics, are just supreme!!!

Hannah Abram

laughing so hard at the voice both of you use every time you say “BrItIsH LiTeRaTuRe!!!”

Ginger Miller

this book is so much more entertaining if you imagine that anaphylaxis or whatever her name is doing a “Baby Runs for President” bit

Mic

birth patrol

Sarah

On the topic of dark smut can we please speak about Haunting Adeline bc how is something SO DARK in the mainstream and on booktok?? We must protect our children

melissafalk

Thank you angels for making this episode so long

mel

Maybe an episode covering all ACOTAR books? Or the whole series divided in two episodes?? Maybe that’s too much to ask, I would never want to overwork our binchies 🫶 Just putting it out there in case they’re still open to the idea

Rachel

Not me picturing her inner goddess as Lizzie McGuire’s cartoon

Lilly Hogan

medulla oblongata new vocal stim

lauren

“I like my women sentient” walked so “I love you, my alive girl” could run

Jenni ✨️

Did Ana eat? No. But did she ✨️eat✨️? Also no.

maddie

unfortunately i read a pdf of this when i was 12 and it never truly left my brain…..laughing

izzy

One time I went to the bathroom in a bar and the wallpaper was floor to ceiling pages of fifty shades of grey… covered in coffee wash?

Jenni ✨️

correct me if this is a fever dream but does Colleen hoover not have a book about a student teacher romance that also is set mostly in a SLAM POETRY CLUB and has a bunch of terrible poems??? if so plz consider

abby c

I have truly never laughed this hard at a podcast ever I’m sobbing but also JULIA. You SHOCKED me not knowing what a medulla oblongota is;(

Isla O'Neill

there’s this crazy kindle unlimited book i read called Brother by Ania Alborn about a guy who’s from a family of serial killers but it turns out they stole him as a child….very weird and awful

Cappy Spruance

I recently read a book called Soul Snatcher by Jackie Egan that's the WORST book I've ever read. It was about a princess whose pussy killed men after they had sex with her and it was so confusing and unhinged and I'd love to hear your thoughts 😂😂😂

Jess123

I’m so upset that y’all have me googling “zootopia pro life comic” ☠️☠️☠️

Allison M

Pleaseeeee read the A List series they would make such an amazing bad book club review episode

Sav

fuck i am so embarrassed to have ever slept with a man

jaden.edu

psychologically speaking a ceo of a big successful company would likely be more into being a submissive because being a dom would feel like work but…

claire

I too graduated from the pride and prejudice virginity school

Molly Bishop
>>130288079

yes! my fave read of last year. when the binchies were talking about this dude tracking the girl i kept thinking of Birnam Wood. Most haunting ending to a book.

lauren

Is Jose supposed to be Jacob????? 😭

Dynasti deGouville

Haven't listened to this episode yet but on Valentine's Day my bf and I decided to watching the FSoG movie and drink every time we cringe. Needless to say we finished the entire bottle of wine about halfway through

Danica

Need a Haunting Adeline deep dive

julia!

read my immortal !! it’s harry potter fan fiction, known for being absolutely awful (have not read it myself) and the main character is named "Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way"

Skylar Whitehead
>>130287499

To tide you over theres a fantastic video essay by Jenny Nicholson on youtube about a published reylo fic that i would highly recommend!

Abbey W

is birth patrol a bit or no 😭 that’s so funny

cybersylk

Okay super outing myself by saying that I do bdsm with my partner and it’s super important to me tbh. We’ve taken so much care to communicate our needs and limits healthfully. We read a lot of literature about best practices and the community. Overall, I consider myself to be a very responsible and educated practitioner of it. But anyways, we decided to watch the movie for Valentine’s Day for #representation lmao. We were laughing the entire time and I doubled over in pain when he said he was fifty shades of fucked up. It cringed us out so bad. Afterwards we retired to my ~play room~ (my bedroom with an ikea mattress and piles of laundry in it) and he asked if I was going to get out our bdsm gear and I was like no… I can’t…. Christian Grey made me too embarrassed to be a dom!!!

emma

please read Credence you will not recover

Julia

you guys don’t understand I NEED how many episodes necessary dedicated to acotar

Genevieve Severini

The pride and prejudice virginity school is actually where I did my k-12

Genevieve Severini
>>130325036

Have I watched a 2 hour YouTube video about this book??? Yes. Would a listen to a bad book club episode about this book??? Also yes

isabel

please go through acotar we need your thoughts you don't even have to clown it <3

Athena Fosler-Brazil

there are tears streaming down my face i am laughing so hard

I

Comment from another binchie just unlocked a memory for me… summer of 2011… family trip away… I’ve seen my mum secretly reading 50 shades on her kindle so I ask her what she’s reading and she says ‘a book about africa’ 🥴🥴🥴🥴

Tori D

i was cackling this whole episode

Tori D

i cannot overstate how bad john greens an abundance of katherine’s is- one of the few books i intentionally chose to not finish reading

Katie King

I worked at a book store in the gift wrapping section the year this came out and the amount of middle aged men who got this for their wives was ASTRONOMICAL

emxcallan

If you want something that has INTRIGUE but also has make you scratch your eyes out smut then read Breeding with Bigfoot by Siggy Shade, that was the weirdest book my friends and I read for our bad book club

Meghan Pohl

Loveee the ep binches 🫶🫶 For future bad book clubs, please check out Credence by Penelope Douglas. The main love interest is actually THE Tasmanian devil

Your Mum

Please y’all need to start reading some Dramione Omega Fanfic if you’re in search of some insane bad literature

Isidor Jankovich

if you’re looking for fucked up the Twisted Love series is INSANE

Sophie Ezrol

need to know how julia is quite literally getting a phd in psychology and didn’t know what the medulla was—i’m in undergrad psych rn and have had to memorize all the brain parts for like 4 separate classes…am i doing something wrong, should i be taking different courses

jaq

what kindle model do y’all have !?!?

jaq
>>130279131

we suffered in december texting back and forth over this book for no reason <\3

Charlie

embarassed that i know this but the reason fifty shades ends so abruptly is because the fanfiction it was adapted from (master of the universe) was actually much longer, so they split it down the middle and divided it into fifty shades and fifty shades darker– that’s why fifty shades darker picks up exactly where the first book leaves off and why so many loops from the first book aren’t closed until the second one! again, sorry for knowing this.

Holly Oaken

PLEASE do Flowers in the Attic by VC Andrews and explore why this atrocity was passed around so many elementary schools as an introduction to smut

Jesse

Am I tripping or does Julia keep saying “birth patrol”??

Issy

Brings back memories of my older sister reading this book the summer it came out and my grandma picking it up from my sister’s lounge chair to check it out…and putting it back down pretty quickly

maggie mcdonald

PLEASE PLEASE read DEN OF VIPERS if you want awful!! like mafia brother porn and the worst writing ive ever seen. absolutely ridiculous stuff

nicole vandeweghe

please im begging you to read my immortal by tara gilesbie

Lien Duke

Call this girl Ana bc she do NOT be eating

Nikita

Omg PLEASE READ FALLEN I was obsessed when I was 14 with this series and I TRIED to reread it at 21 and I threw it out at an airport

Ava

Julia made me belly laugh countless times throughout this. 10/10

Natalie

In Australia we def say Merc for Mercedes

Dagny H
>>130293242

REAL!! I read it out of curiosity and it is the worst book I’ve ever read 💀. I couldn’t even finish it

Grace

okay, as a former bookstore employee who lived for reorganizing the romance section so i could find the most absolutely bonkers books in print to share with my coworkers, might i recommend “the ghost and miss demure” by melanie jackson? i have not read it but the tagline is “some ghosts are too friendly” and the jacket does describe the love interest (a ghost) as “eighteenth-century America’s answer to the Marquis de Sade. (She’s not exactly sure what de Sade was asking.)” would be truly a bonkers read i do believe

Isobelolololol

Pls do outlander horny people and witch accusations hello!

soph

im pretty sure he’s referring to a cat o 9 tails (like the whip) when he says "a cat of my own at home" but it’s not a good or clear line

izzy
>>130302853

When I got the mortification for this comment I was like huhhh? I didn’t respond to my own comment (great name btw)

julie

maddie
>>130340581

“Sorry for knowing this” is sending meeeee thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge king/queen/non binary royalty

Jamesy

this has been my fave bad book club. Y’all had me laughing out loud during my workout

jaden.edu

I’m almost done with Bride by Ali Hazelwood and I think it would be a great one for bad book club. A vampire and a werewolf get married to bring an alliance between their people. Aaaaaand of course there’s smut because all bad books have smut right 🤣

yassgirlyslay

begging you guys to do Ice Breaker by Hannah Grace

Cait

PLEASE read from blood and ash, it’s genuinely the worst book I’ve ever read I don’t think the author even has an editor

Lia Slaystress

I think any type of omegaverse books would qualify for bad book club.

Jane L.
>>130334884

I have paperwhite and it has all of the features they discuss :) luv it

Sophie W

Please read November 9th by Colleen Hoover 😭 I read it because I was inspired by your “It ends with Us” reading. Easily the most psychotic 7 hours of my life or whatever.

lauren baker

damn i was hoping to hear what her sex worker friends said and we never did 😩 😩

lauren baker

Natalie Lawrence

On a 8 hour drive this had my boyfriend and I absolutely cackling

Natalie Lawrence

Also binchesss I need help finding the ep where the girls tell the story of the landlord renting a cat pls help!

Maggie Zendehrouh

Den of Vipers is the worst book i’ve ever read and it was so aggressively recommended in 2020 booktok

Roni

you guys both have me cackling at this episode

Yael

One time at Jewish Summer Camp some boys smuggled the book into camp and they were all giggly and secretive about it so my cabin raided their cabin and we stole it and sat around in a circle to read out the dirty bits after our counsellors left for their staff meeting

Roni
>>130341531

Omg stop…I’ve always thought that was specific to my elementary/jr high school! Lmao my friends and I blew thru that whole series at the time tho

AK

Pls read an Ali hazelwood book next time

maddie moo

Georgia Gill

my girlieeees I came here to tell u all that myself and many other australian people shorten Mercedes to Merc I asked my girlfriend and she was like "yuck who the fuck calls it a Benz" so there u go

Kyra Kothawala

I’m LIVINGGG for the bad book club episodes. They’re so fun & hilarious. Respectfully, Shatter Me was one of the worst books I’ve ever read. Would recommend

Maya Tetali

Please read fourth wing it’s truly soooo bad

Ava Anderson

Recommending If he had been with me for bad book club pleassseeee

Sidney

my friend and i have started our own bad book club, and we would recommend neon gods, it truly changed my life for the worst

Bori Frankus

Hey binchies! I remember in an older episode Eliza+Julia saying they wished there was a place they could go to lock away their phones and do therapy/emotional processing all day. THAT PLACE EXISTS, I WENT, AND ITS EVEN BETTER THAN YOU COULD IMAGINE (https://www.sleepawake.camp) Im not getting any compensation for saying this I pURELY WANT TO SHARE this info because they just opened their application for this summer’s retreat and if it could change someone here's life like it changed mine that would be a true blessing, esp for this beautiful community. If you are minutely interested (18-30 year olds only) please DM me I would LOVE to talk about it (u can also IG DM me its @pennametorihope)

EllyLC

Need you guys to read either haunting Adeline or den of vipers

Lindzz

Not bad writing necessarily, but would be interested to hear your take on the Scum Manifesto. The woman who wrote it talks about how we need to kill all men and ended up shooting Andy Warhol

Kara

maybe y’all should do the pretty little liars books. not all of them of course (did you guys know there are like 20? damn. my library only had the first 10.) but my gf and i started rewatching the show lately so of course im in a re-read and this shit is NUTS.

Legs

Birth patrol 😎🚔

Bori Frankus
>>130441227

They’ve def talked about this in old episodes I do forget which ones unfortunately

M. Lewis

The movie came out when I was in hs and my ex bfs mom was excited to see it, I passively commented that the relationship seemed abusive and she yelled at me lmao

Sabine
>>130432028

I hate it but I also can’t stop reading it😭 this episode is gagging me because the overdone bad boy love interest is so obviously boiled down from these exact tropes

Anna Pretzer

Y’all need to read Verity by Colleen Hoover, that shit is fckn deranged

Julia

Omg I just had an epiphany you guys should read the selection I was obsessed with it in middle school but I think it would be a little silly now

aysha
>>130384893

PLEASE I’m on the 5th book I can’t stop hate reading it 😭

Lisa M

I am a Celibate Women. I love my Cats and my Novels. And by Novels I mean the Dead Dove Tag on AO3. These quotes are making me INSANE. I do NOT understand the dynamic. HOW WAS this effective porn (?) for people. When she thinks about how he would “beat the 7 shades of shit out of me” the thought is “depressing”. This women does NOT seem to be into being a sub!!?? Again, I am not an actual practicer of BDSM, mearly an avid enjoyer of BDSMy dub-con/non-con type erotica (a type of erotica that I DEFINITELY believe includes most of the traditional sexy harlequin-type romances I’ve read. The BDSM edict in those is non-existent).“Depressing” is the OPPOSITE of “Titillating ” which is feels like THE WHOLE FUCKIN POINT WITH KINK.???? The thought could be “terrifying” or “overwhelming” or even “exciting” but…. “depressing”? I don’t get it. It’s like this book is supposed to BE FOR the freaky ladies who get turned on by the thought of some freaky guy being really freaky to them. But the main character isn’t one of those freaky ladies??? And like y’all said, make the Dom in the pairing a mentally ill/“broken” guy. Which seems sort of disrespectful to freaky people in general. And I just feel like it can’t be that effective. Like, As porn. These poor moms who read this. There’s better out there Debra. There’s so much, and it’s so much better. I could show you the world!.

Lisa M
>>130542973

when typing this out I kept on thinking about the Thin Man from Charlie’s Angles Full Throttle. A freaky king. Christian Grey???? Girl, I’m talking about Christian GLOV-ER

thisisntheidi

The cat of his own is a cat of nine tails^^^

>>130484379

fr i thought to myself oh binchtopia broke this story months ago…

Mary Margaret Dutcher

wait when y’all said “that’s what someone says when they sexually assault you”…i 😭

Cici Oberhaus

if yall are down for reading actual bad fanfiction read My Immortal PLEASE

Milky Wilky

yall should read the milk fic

Natania

you simply MUST do My Immortal please for the love of all that is holy

Rosie Hankes

Not a book but NEED your thoughts on the “Who TF did I Marry” saga!! Men stay pathologically lying!!

mads

RELEASE THE TAPES (acotar episodes)

Summer

Another bad book idea: Midnight Sun. Edwards perspective from twilight book 1. He is so moody and melodramatic and cus hes a vampire his time goes quicker and he has 1000 more thoughts per scene. The book has smaller font and more pages than twilight itself. I will say it is interesting how they portray Bella from an outsider perspective vs her own inner dialog in the regular series. I know yall have talked about twilight as a cultural phenomenon before in passing but it would be interesting to see an analysis on the series // just this version of it.

Chance Al-Hajji

No like the sick thing is is I want the multiple part series on ACOTAR. I read the whole series last year and lowkey hated a lot of things about it but also lowkey she kinda slayed that also it’s complex in that way

Amanda palermo

Julia you really popped off in this episode, I’m cackling like a little witch at everything you are saying 😂😂😂😂

Hannah

I am once again recommending Emily Ever After for bad book club, it’s like an evangelical Emily in Paris set in New York and you can easily read it in a couple hours

Isla

please read ugly love by colleen hoover or haunting adeline by h.d carlton! you will never be the same after🤪

Maya Fielding

as a SW “gaped” at her is extra hilarious

Jude MDA

I had to pause listening to this & postpone for later because I was laughing by myself in public like a maniac

gorfgurl

maybe you guys should do the warrior cats series

Marla Smith

please read it happened one summer 😭😭😭

Izzy Rowley-deBruyn

In ninth grade my gay dance friends and I put water in our mouths and took turns reading excerpts from fifty shadows trying not to spit water core high school mem

Abby

Please read ‘birthday girl’ by penelope douglas. Smut book about a girl falling for her boyfriends dad

mari !

do punk 57 trust.

laynie<3

Pls do the kissing booth 😭😭

Courtney Wilson
>>130436052

Not me turning 31 in March so now I can’t attend 🙃🙃 can they do one for like 30-40 year olds lmao

Bori Frankus
>>130436052

Nooooooo. Definitely reach out anyway since you’re so close to the age range. I know they are also planning an event for an older age group which they can discuss with you

Sophia

pretty appalled at the lack of comments saying they should read The Love Hypothesis… be serious. its a published star wars fanfiction where the jedi from the new movies “fake dates” her phd supervisor (kylo ren). the cover art literally looks like the two actors (who in real life have lowkey been stalked by these fans) there is insane lore behind this book im begging for the press to wake up

emma grace condon

Guys I found out my professor’s daughter’s name is Ilaria!!!!!!!!

Megan Leibfreid

love you queens, highly suggest Icebreaker or Wildfire by Hannah Grace for this series they’re horrific :)

Ava

you gotta do credence by penelope douglas it’s horrible

Julia R

Eliza the truth is out!! Glitter is clearly about Christian Grey… “you corner me daily in the kitchenette/ you say ‘have you eaten enough today yet’” and “‘I don’t know what to do with you’ - you say it often” lmao I love you and the song

Sophia Csiacsek

second first impressions by sally thorne was so bad i only made it a few chapters she acts and dresses like an 80 year old (literally the main plot point) and runs like a 7th heaven message board and the main guy when he first meets her tells her she looks like tweety bird’s granny 💀

Willa Yonkman

You need to read November 9 by Colleen Hoover. I think it’s about a girl who falls in love with the arsonist who like burned down her house. It’s famous for being her most batshit crazy book

Renee Common

Sweet bitter by Stephanie Danler!! My friends who have never worked in a restaurant didn’t think it was that bad, but if you’ve worked in a restaurant, it was cringe after cringe after cringe with a side of grooming???

Rachel

Some bad books… Three Swedish Mountain Men by Lily Gold and Credence by Penelope Douglas

Mary

Please review The Maidens!! It’s cheap psychological thriller meets dark academia. I think Julia would have a field day. One of the worst books with the worst endings I’ve ever read!!

Ally Watkinson

my friend and i started a bad book club together (which was partially inspired by you guys) and so far we’ve read the nanny by lana ferguson and secretly yours by tessa bailey, both of which were very bad

Ava Pollioni

LADIES! Consider venturing into Hannah Grace world of SMUT! Icebreaker is bad, Wildfire is worse. It’s American college coded but from the perspective of a woman from Manchester….. Simon and Schuster flop🚣

Indie

there’s many many sequels to the pro life zootopia comic if you search the name of the original- judy becomes gay JFK

Symphony

PLEASEEEEEEE read the book Back River Quiver. It changed my life. I was in a bad smut book club and it SHOOK everyone

Julia

hi girlies this is my first comment uwu i’m a certified Reader Girl and the worst thing i’ve ever read is the hating game by sally thorne, it’s one of those romance novels about a girl who is sooooooo tiny and also has bangs and a quirky hobby and did i mention she is so teeny tiny? I desperately wanted to stop but it was new years and I really wanted to add one more book to my storygraph for the year. the gag is I was visiting my parents who live in a different time zone and when I finished it at 11:59 I put it in the app and it registered as my first book of the new year because it assumed I was on my home time!!! supremely fucked but also took me one second to fix lmao xoxo

Haven Patrick

i know a couple people (friends of friends mayhaps) who's parents bought them a place for college.. then rent out the other rooms. that kinda money baffles me

Kealyn Hope

wb that fucked up book tok book from like 4 years ago diary of an oxygen thief. i’ve never read but it’s pretty universally hated

Sabine

Recommending Lightlark for bad book club. I feel like this book is extra fertile ground because of the authors crazy tiktok presence

Ruby Berliner

Ok maybe a hot take but read fourth wing for a bad book club

Nettie Adams

Ok not bad book club but I’m re-listening to evil gays episode and you need to watch Ellen’s gorilla documentary it is so fucking funny

deanna

plssss read archers voice — it’s SO well rated on goodreads and tik tok that my friend got it for me for my birthday and I was gagged the whole way thru

Sophie M

BINCHIES I HAVE A RECOMMENDATION: i’m reading a book called “ladies first” it’s described as “MAGA hat romance, book 1”…. if that’s not enough it’s written by “liberty adams” (yes, a pen name). it’s a love story in which patriot mike rescues feminist ricki from a post-trump rally riot! will ricki find the courage to leave the left for a lifetime of old-fashioned true love? said ricki is currently described as having a green pixie cut and black nail polish & lipstick. neeeeeed to hear your thorts……

emma

the zodiac academy books are absolutely awful and completely insane.... the writing is sososososososooooo bad and hilarious and the plot is FUCKED up like these two girls just get bullied the entire time but then they still like their bullies? and there's teacher romance? and a knockoff facebook?

Maya Harris

binchies, please watch contrapoints video on twilight/50 shades, it’s a really interesting philosophical deep dive that pairs perfectly with this ep

Hannah
>>130996105

Oh that book was AWFUL…. I hated it so much. I liked silent patient but I hated Maiden’s so much it ruined Silent Patient for me

Hannah

Read Verity please

Sam Haimowitz

“OKAY NASH GRIER” LMFAOOOOOOOO

Sam Haimowitz

MY INNER GODDESS IS DOING THE MERENGUE

olivia young

y'all should read The Idea of You... another harry styles fan fic about a middle age woman who takes her daughter to see this band August Moon at Coachella and she falls in love w the 24 year old lead singer... there is a movie version coming out may 2nd so the binchies could do a viewing after bad book club!!

Becca Peach

pls read an unhinged Christian contemporary novel like The Shack or a book from the Left Behind series / Forbidden Doors series

maddie

y’all should read that book about the sentient door that fucks

maddie
>>132426877

“unhinged” by Vera valentine — I haven’t read it but it is described as an “erotic door romance”….

Sophie Bradbury

‘Jane Eyre laid bare’ is an erotic retelling of Jane eyre that I need you guys to read

Sophie Bradbury
>>132459342

Only read the summary but Bertha mason is rewritten as a dominatrix?!? And Jane does it with her best mate who dies in the very same bed as her?!

Shannon Higgins

PLEASE read Lessons in Chemistry!!! my friends and I chose this book for our own book club after reading good reviews. i simply could not put this book down as i never believed feminist commentary could miss the mark so hard. i could talk about this book for HOURS and u should too:)

Gabi Pinto

You guys should read Kendall and Kylie Jenner’s dystopian YA book

Paige Dillon

The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena made its way into my friend’s book club and 5 years later it’s still the most ridiculously bad book we’ve ever read

Meredith Floyd
>>132426877

i have read this at least ten times and my brain is still just refusing to comprehend this as real

maddie
>>132426877

oh it’s very real and has 13,000 ratings on goodreads for an average of 3.05 stars!

Morgan

Also… talking about commentary on bad books (although not such a bad book apparently) pleaaaaseeee listen to the newest contrapoints on twilight of you haven’t! The whole time all I could think about was every book you’ve covered so far!

Kristy

Surely Kendall and Kylie’s book…

mozillafirerox

As a BDSM lover I have AN answer to A question you asked. The part where he says I have a cat myself for you: he’s talking about a cat o nine tails. It’s a type of whip/flail.

Isabelle Sauter

Anyone else notice this is the *69th* bonus episode?

Han🦋

Fourth Wing was a ridiculous read as well, definitely should be added to bad book club😂

Madelyn

Please do gothikana it’s an attempt at a dark academia romance with supernatural elements and a student/professor element, truly one of the worst books ever written

Katlynn Vredenburgh

Y'all should check out "Credence" by Penelope Douglas - it's got a reverse harem and almost incest and is just a wild ride of a read

My official bad book club recommendation is “The Idea of You” by Robinne Lee. It’s published one direction fan fiction that is soon becoming a movie starring Anne Hathaway! It’s the worst book I’ve ever read! It’s about a 40 year old woman dating 20 year old Harry Styles and it’s all VERY off putting and poorly written. That being said, I finished it in 2 days.

Rec- the "twisted" series, its a series of 4 books that focuses on a group of friends, each book focusing on each friend's love affair with a walking red flag of a man. the writing is bad, lots of smutty scenes with things, one of the characters is a princess of a made up country, spy shit, you get it. the first book "twisted love" is worth the bad read, prob a lot to make fun of :).

Hey physical therapist Binchie here! Still don’t know why they used medulla oblongata LOL I didn’t read the book just this stellar episode but it’s home to the nucleus of the last four cranial nerves - glossopharyngeal, vagus, accessory, and hypoglossal. Three of which have to do with the gag reflex and taste at the back of your tongue. Lol. (Accessory is the odd one out). I’m a recent patreonite so going back in the archives hope this helps ✌️
