This week we have to finish up 4 or 5 more storylines. But we ALSO have to take you on a journey of words and delight all of your senses. I uhh, don't know what else to say. Ben told me to tell you that this is for fans more than anything because it goes off on tangents pretty regularly. But I had fun doing it and that's what counts.

In this chapter we climb a mountain. The mountain is evil. We go back down the mountain. Honestly, now that I think about it, that is kind of how all mountain climbing stories go.

This week Ben says we're in the "filler arc." Well Ben, is talking for almost 2 hours about a book "filler" to you? Do you know how much effort I put into this? Do you know how many notes I took? How thorough of a job I did? This isn't filler, Ben. This was NEVER filler. How dare you. How DARE you.

This week the Patrons voted on us reading a Sonic Comic but not the Archie Comics one, the IDW one. It's written by Ian Flynn. The story is "Sonic fights a thing and runs into one of his friends and where is Doctor Eggman?" I just summaraized the comic.

We conclude our discussion of the council of Elrond after taking testimony from Gandalf and Legolas. I also read to you the three paragraphs that comprise the entirety of The Hunt for Gollum, an upcoming feature film. I'm sure it will be great.

We've made it to the Council of Elrond. This is perhaps the most lore dense chapter in all of Lord of the Rings. There's a lot to unpack. Better get comfortable, but don't worry. Unlike the actual Council of Elrond, we will break for lunch.

Detective Kosuke Kindaichi is back. He is tasked with notifying his fallen comrade's family of his death. Before he died, Chimata told Kosuke to save his sisters. But save them from whom? On the night of Chimata's wake one of his three sisters is found murdered. Can Kosuke solve this mystery in time to save the others?
No, he can't. That's actually spoiled pretty early on in the book. Join Words About Books as we struggle to make sense of what is going on.Support the show

Mona is just a 14-year-old girl with a full time job and an apartment. Now it's up to her to thwart a serial killer and defend a city under siege. Also in this episode, Ben's meme cuts turn into a surprising revelation.

We're back! With this two parter episode on the Hunger Games 2 and it sure is another Hunger Games. That's for sure. 10/10 lived up to the marketing. Will Katniss be able to either smother the flames of rebellion with her love or fan the flames of rebellion with her love? Will she become a symbol that President Snow wants to avoid killing so she doesn't become a martyr OR does he try to kill her because nuh uh? Why is everyone trying to save Peeta? Where is Gail? Who is Gail? Will President Snow's plans make any sense? Find out... maybe in this book. You'll have to listen to the entire episode (possibly a few times, we want your views) in order to find out maybe.

Last year The Hunger Games clinched the WABie for Best in Show! So the boys are back to discuss the sequel: Catching Fire. This time the stakes are higher when an elderly man who smells like blood says that Katniss is about to get a lot of people killed and that she has to stop that. Then he kills a bunch of people and blames her. Then he sends in a new Head Peacekeeper to menace our plucky heroes. How will she handle this new threat? How will she lead a revolution? And will there be a second Hunger Games to totally rob the book of its momentum halfway through? Find out the answers to those questions and so much more!

This is it! It's all 6 Dune books and their supercuts smashed into one. You probably could actually summarize the series from this 2 hour trek. Thanks to everyone who continues to support us! We'll be back next week with book discussions!

It's that time of year again! The boys hand out awards and review our year which felt like at least 2 or 3 years. Did you now we read The Deep Sky THIS year? How about The Honjin Murders? That was also 2024. That feels like at least 2023, maybe 2022. I am blown away by that, it's insane. Also Nate gets drunk and we hand out awards.
