About this episode

It's the very first episode of our show about books that have been getting the Hollywood treatment! Our first read: Normal People by Sally Rooney, now a series on Hulu. Read along with us! Or don't — this isn't English class, we won't tell.

In the first part of our discussion, we talk Marianne at high school, and why we'll never forgive Connell for not taking her to Debs.
