Season 3, Episode 2: The Matchmaker’s List

 

This week on Book Besties we talk about The Matchmaker’s List by Sonya Lalli. Join them as they listen to Molly struggle to get through the synopsis, April is disappointed with the lack of spice, and the besties talk about the difference between bad writing and bad storytelling.

Things talked about in this episode:

“The Peppiest Kids” Lyrics (shoutout to Hidden Hollow Camp in Ohio: The peppiest kids I ever saw, they never come a pokin’. If I would to tell you the pep they have, you’d think I was a jokin’. It’s not the pep in the pepper pot or the pep in the popcorn pooper. It’s not the pep in the mustard jar or the pep in the vinegar stopper. It’s good ole fashioned “P-E-P”. The pep you can’t knock down. Hidden Hollow, Hidden Hollow. The peppiest kids around.

The Imitation Game was based on the biography Alan Turning: The Enigma: https://time.com/3609585/the-true-story-of-the-imitation-game/
