The Mister by E.L. James with Full Frontal's Kristen Bartlett

Waddup, book nerds! Our special guest for this episode is Kristen Bartlett (Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, SNL). She made us read The Mister by E.L. James, which spent 7 weeks on the NYT bestseller list after its release in April 2019. The Mister is James’ first new work of original fiction since she became an international phenomenon with Fifty Shades. But WHY? We break it down.Mean Book Club is four ladies (UCB, HuffPost, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books with questionable literary merit. It's fun.
