TBR Book Dive

Two nerds missed school so much they gave themselves homework. We read books! It's a vaguely book club format, so feel free to read along with us. We mostly read SF/F, though that's not a rule. If you enjoy interesting insights sandwiched by stupid jokes then boy howdy do we have a show for you.
