37: Anything but Fiction! (Recorded Remotely)

As readers, we often fall into a bubble of reading the same type of book over and over, and our hosts are no stranger to that, which is why during this episode Ryan, Hillary, and Kelso temporarily set aside the Sci-Fi, the Fantasy, the Horror, the Queer Lit, and instead recommend "anything but fiction"!
