\"Scythe<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As a belated Valentine to ourselves, we invited our friend Angie Manfredi<\/a> (@MissKubelik<\/a>), editor of The Other F-Word<\/a><\/em>, back on the show to read a Best Bestseller. We read Scythe<\/em> by Neal Shusterman, a twisty YA utopia-ish where death is optional and the cloud is your friend. This episode does contain full spoilers for a book that we sincerely recommend reading, so maybe hold off on listening if you’ve been meaning to read Scythe<\/em>? Or listen to the episode now–in the age of mortality, life is short.<\/p>\n
