Reading Envy 101: A Different Kind of Time Travel

Jenny was so excited to be in the same city as Karen, in October, so we planned reading dates, a meat fest (not a euphemism), and time to record an episode.

Warning: There is a bit of a spoiler for Exit West on here, but nothing you haven't learned if you've read any reviews of the book.
