Reading a single book is sufficient to catapult one into literary snobbery. But only if that book was written in 1869 by a Russian aristocrat who's grasp of brevity begins and ends with - the word between breville and brevirostris in the dictionary. After you've listened to a few dozen one-star reviews of Tolstoy's 1.5K page masterpiece, you too, can pretend to have read what critics have deemed one of the greatest books of all time. And if there's one thing the world needs more of, it's literary snobs.

In this episode of Bad Reviews for Good Books, the Hancocks commentate on what reviewers had to say about Wicked by Gregory Maguire. Some fun bits of today's episode:
For copyrighted materials: copyright protection lasts for the life of the author plus an additional 70 years. Have you ever hear the word corpuscular before? No? Jaida hadn't either. It refers to a corpuscle (a minute or elementary particle of matter, such as an electron, proton, or atom) MADELINE! If you don't know what this means, you'll *have* to listen.*This episode is marked as explicit because it briefly discusses some sexual things that Maguire included in Wicked. If you are not comfortable with such topics, don't say we didn't warn you.

This episode of Bad Reviews for Good Books is one-of-a-kind and will probably never be done again. The Hancocks tried to record an episode will the whole family (yes, that's right-- all seven of them!). Unfortunately, things got difficult due to many factors. The sound quality on this episode is subpar, to say the least. SO, if you have a problem with terrible audio, this one might not be for you.
