Ep. 3 Wish You Were Here

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of All Books No Chill, I’m diving into Wish You Were Here by Jodi Picoult, a pandemic novel that hit a little closer to home than I expected. What starts as a story about art, ambition, and a once-in-a-lifetime trip quickly turns into something much heavier, asking big questions about grief, identity, and what happens when the life you planned disappears overnight.We talk plot twists (yes, that one), the emotional whiplash of reading pandemic fiction post-2020, and why the first half of this book completely worked for me… while the ending left me conflicted. I also unpack themes of art, meaning, burnout, and how easy it is to lose ourselves chasing the “right” version of adulthood.
