Join us on our spaceship for our discussion of "Earthlings" by Sayaka Murata. We talk about the various pressures women face, society as a monster, the strange and complicated characters, body hair, and that wild ending. Next we get into some listener feedback on "Ready Player Two" and "Make Up Break Up," and then we catch up with what’s on the blog! Tune in on June 28th for our third installment of Book Squad Games, and read along for our next Bookpisode about "The Chosen and the Beautiful" by Nghi Vo on July 12th!TOC0:00 – Intro question10:00 – Content warning and book intro24:56 – Society as a monster33:29 – The trauma49:00 – Let’s talk about Yuu53:18 – Natsuki’s husband and Kise 1:10:00 – Hair talk1:06:32 - The ending!1:23:37 – Ratings1:29:50 – Feedback1:36:19 – What’s on the blog?
