It’s Boozy Book Club time again! This week’s pick? “Jackpot” by Nic Stone, selected by Stephanie. This book has mystery, it has teenage drama, it has insight from inanimate objects! Full disclosure there are lots of spoilers and we may get passionate about why America needs better health care, but most importantly we discuss why you always need a friend around to hold up FRIENDLY or FLIRTING signs. And oh yeah…there is the brief return of LAWRENCE CHANEY!Follow us on IG: https://www.instagram.com/boozysittersclub/Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/boozysitters/Support us at: https://www.patreon.com/boozysittersclub

GIRL! From Stoneybrook to RuPaul’s Drag Race UK there has been ALL. THE. SHADE!

The Boozy Book Club is back!

We never thought there would be anything that could happen that would make us dislike the OG members of the BSC, but turns out they can be kinda awful when they begin the trials of Mallory Pike! This episode is a bit of a rollercoaster as we debate the true color of Mallory’s hair (she’s a redhead goddamn it!), chat about how our girl Ann M. does not shy away from teaching kids racism is wrong (bless her!) and Stephanie can’t stop talking about her new favorite Glaswegian…LAWRENCE CHANEY!Follow us on IG: https://www.instagram.com/boozysittersclub/Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/boozysitters/Support us at: https://www.patreon.com/boozysittersclub
