Gayle and Nicole are sooo close to episode 100, but they needed one more week to prepare. So they recorded Episode 99.5, in which they share a list of backlist books that they have been meaning to read and that are lingering on their shelves, but that keep getting passed over for no good reason. They commit to reading them sometime in the next 100 episodes! If you’ve read them, let them know whether they should be on their TBRs, and in what order?
