'My Dear You' by Rachel Khong: short story slander, ai sex bots, and the afterlife (Book Club)

In their fourth book club episode, Sunny and Allie review 'My Dear You' by Rachel Khong. The book is a collection of ten short stories, written in as many years, exploring race, connection, transformation, and grief. Khong's protagonists compel us to confront some of life's biggest questions, hidden beneath the veil of unusual, paranormal scenarios. Here, Sunny and Allie reconsider their bias against the short story format, discuss which animal they'd choose to be reborn into, whether they'd keep their current appearance in the afterlife if given a choice, and much more.

‘Off-Campus’ TV Show Review: Is the Book Adaptation Worth Watching?

The original hockey romance has finally gotten its own TV adaptation. In this episode, Sunny and Allie review episodes 1-7 of Prime Video's new 'Off Campus' series, based on the best-selling novels by Elle Kennedy. But unlike their prior discussions on book adaptations, only Allie has read the books the adaptation is based on (and trust me, she's read them enough for the both of us). How does this adaptation stack up for a fan who has read the series back to front more times than she should admit, versus a booklover who hasn't yet entered the world of 'Off Campus' and is learning about its characters for the first time through the TV show? Together, they attempt to answer the age-old question: Is it preferable to read the book before or after watching its screen adaptation? Proceed with caution as this episode contains minor spoilers for the television series.
