BSG #100: Whale Tail Dystopia / Hum
from Book Squad Goals Hosted by #BookSquadGoals
We’re off to the sad botanical garden for our ONE HUNDREDTH (!) Bookpisode about Hum by Helen Phillips. We talk about climate change, artificial intelligence, human connection (or lack thereof) and, of course, the ultimate villain: capitalism! Then we get into some special 100th episode feedback and give a quick blog update. Our next Othersode will be about Music & Lyrics, and we’ll be joined by special guest Samantha Allen, author of Roland Rogers Isn’t Dead Yet. That’s on 12/10! And then, our holiday gift to you is our next Bookpisode on Model Home by Rivers Solomon dropping on 12/24! Don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe, Goalies!
