While some of the racial politics and its approach to queerness haven't aged particularly well, we appreciate the white girls coming in second, a competitive approach to female rivalry and a bounty of sassy dialogue.Faring less well is director Laura Terruso and writer Alison Peck's Work It (2020) which exists solely as a vehicle for Sabrina Carpenter, whom Joe describes as a charisma vacuum.

Following the death of her father in a car accident, Marion Althouse finds herself moving to a new home on Sawkill Island. Her mother, numb with loss, will be the housekeeper for the top family on Sawkill: the Mortimers, a mother and daughter with numerous dark secrets. Marion's sister Charlotte is eager for a new scene and new friends. While still lost in the throes of grief, Marion has become an anxious caretaker to her remaining family. She just wants a safe place for all three of them to heal. Sawkill isn't the place for that, however. It doesn't take long for Charlotte to find new friends, including the boss's daughter, Val. Then the unthinkable happens: Charlotte disappears. Marion quickly discovers that Sawkill has a terrifying history of disappearing girls, several of whom were friends with Val at the end, and no one really does much to figure out what happened. It turns out that this Island is a temporary home for a monster from another dimension, and this monster needs to eat girls to survive. The Rock of Sawkill isn't happy about this occupation and needs girls to unite to protect it and its inhabitants. Marion has to negotiate this new community, with its distrust of outsiders and strict class hierarchies, and figure out who are her allies and who are her enemies. It doesn't take her long to learn that nothing is quite what it seems to be.     Recommended in this podcast: W.

Amanda and Jenn discuss funny book club picks, audiobooks in translation, historical fiction, and more in this week’s episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by Audible, Kingsbane by Claire Legrand and Birthday by Meredith Russo. Subscribe to the podcast via RSS, Apple Podcasts, or Stitcher.   Questions 1. Hey Amanda and Jenn!! Long time listener first time requester! Looking for a book to recommend for my book club. Traditionally we just draw from a book jar of other recommendations that we’ve done and let the Fates decide but for the last four months we’ve had a member pick three books and we picked from there. Well we’ve read a lot of ‘serious’ books in that time which included Circe, The Outsiders, and Big Red Tequila (which while not as heavy as the others still was a crime thriller so the humor wasn’t all that heavy). The current pick is All the Light We Cannot See which sounds great but again will be heavy and serious. So I think we’re going to need a bit of a humor break. We have read our fair share of that such as Let’s Pretend This Never Happened and How to Make White People laugh so books in that vein will work. Most of us do ‘book on a budget’ though so backlists are great as well. It is a bit time sensitive as I will need a suggestion by the beginning of June so thanks for any advice you can give! -Paige   2. I love your podcast and so appreciated (and utilized!) the recommendations you gave me a few months ago when I traveled to France. I am in a bit of a reading rut right now and would love some help. Lately I have mostly just been reading romance, fantasy, or young adult and want to mix it up but don’t know where to begin. I love anti-heroes, fast-moving plots, realistic relationships between characters, and a healthy smattering of jokes. I try very hard to only read books by women and/or people of color, so if you could recommend something that sticks to that, it would be deeply appreciated. Thank you! -Hillary   3. I’m a grad student in experimental psychology, so I read a lot of scientific papers and books. When I relax, I love to read light and easy YA Fiction, but I also love books that have some depth to them. I am one of those people who never got over Harry Potter, since it is easy for me to read but there are always new little details to discover. I also read and enjoyed The Hunger Games, Divergent, the Uglies series, etc., but none of them quite stood up to Harry Potter for me. However, I’ve recently found the Books of Babel series by Josiah Bancroft and absolutely fell in love with them. I have also been voraciously reading everything by Maureen Johnson (thanks to one of your recommendations). While I’m loving the Maureen Johnson stuff, I prefer things like the Books of Babel that have a little more sociological and psychological depth to them. I also love books like 1984 and Invisible Man (the one by Ralph Ellison), but I don’t have the mental energy to devote to books that are too heavy. For me, Josiah Bancroft hit the perfect balance of ease and depth. What would you recommend? Thank you! -Sephra   4. Hi there! I’ll be travelling to Vienna and Stockholm for the first time in July to visit some friends. I’ve never been, so I’m hoping you could recommend some books set in these cities that have a strong sense of place, where the city itself is a character. I’m open to most genres except horror (I’m a scaredy cat of the highest order) and am generally a reluctant YA reader; I also haven’t been able to muster up any interest in Stieg Larsson’s books but if you tell me they fit the bill, I will be game to give it a go. Thank you so much in advance! -Rae   5. After going through several life changes I am finding myself questioning everyone I used to be so sure of. Religion, politics, family and relationships… I’m changing my mind and beliefs on all of them. This is very unsettling to say the least! Do you have any recommendations for me? Perhaps memoirs of people who have walked through this particularly confusing path? (No fiction, please.) -Valerie   6. Hi! I’m an English teacher and I read so much with my kids at school, that I’ve lost touch with reading for fun recently, instead numbing my brain with Netflix as soon as I get home. I’d love to find a book or two that gets me excited again. A few of my favorite books are The Phantom Tollbooth, The Little Prince, Don Quixote, and The Magic Mountain. I also love the dark, sardonic wit of Dorothy Parker. I’m currently enjoying The Lonesome Bodybuilder. (I have a very detailed GoodReads profile, so that might give some clues, too…) I’d prefer adult fiction or middle grade. I’m not anti-YA, but I spend enough time with angst-riddled teens at work, that I’d like something different at home. Thanks!! -Kirsten   7. Hi Ladies! Books in translation is a long-standing hole in my reading. I was hoping for some recommendations for good audiobooks in translation. I read all over the place and don’t have a specific genre in mind. I love genre fiction and nonfiction: some recent favorite listens are Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, Stiff by Mary Roach, Circe by Madeline Miller, and Strange Practice by Vivian Shaw. A queer angle is a huge plus, but not required! Thank you! -Lauren   Books Discussed So Close to Being the Sh*t, Y’all Don’t Even Know by Retta My Lady Jane by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows Boneshaker by Cherie Priest The Storm Runner by JC Cervantes Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch The Black God’s Drums by P.

As someone not *too* far removed from the voracious-child-reader stage can I suggest: Dragonskin Slippers (Jessica Day George), Inkheart (Cornelia Funke), The Ranger’s Apprentice (John Flanagan), the Stravaganza series (Mary Hoffman) and Eragon (Christopher Paolini). Hope some of those are useful, and thank you so much for the podcast - every episode just brightens my week x --Hannah   Questions   1. First of all, when I found your show it was like a dream come true. I love to read! Second only to my love of reading, is my love of discovering new books and putting them on my to read shelf. I keep telling my husband that I wish I had y’all’s job. Speaking of my husband, I am recently married and we are getting ready to go on our honeymoon in December. We are heading to Australia! My husband and I have no intention of just laying on the beach and relaxing all honeymoon. That’s not our style. Instead we plan to do plenty of historical tours. My favorite tours are when I already have a little background on the history of a place. I was hoping you guys could recommend some historical fiction novels set in Australia, especially dating back to its early colonial days and possibly some about its Aboriginal population. I do not like nonfiction or pages and pages of descriptions. I can’t wait to hear your recommendations!! Thank you! --Amelia   2. Hello Ladies! Thanks for answering my previous questions (all those Besses are this Bess) and laughing at my jokes! Very validating! I'm writing to ask for reading recommendations to read over my honeymoon! We're going to an all inclusive resort and I can't wait to just lie around and read :) I'm specifically asking for books that are that tender, heartrending romance where you just want them to be together! Examples include Song of Achilles, Room with a View, Golden Compass Series (Will x Lyra forever). I already own Possession, haven't read it yet -- Way down with pining and angst, I am not really looking for a romance novel, but a literary story where two characters' love is just oh so burny and tender! Thanks in advance, --Bess - bride to be   3. Hi, so like you I loved Sorcerer to the Crown by Zen Cho and I am waiting on tenterhooks for the next book in the series. I’m looking for something to filled the Sorcerer to the Crown shaped hole in my heart. I really like both the Regency, the politics, the slow romance and the magic elements of the book. The Regency period is such an interesting time in British history - right on the edge of the modern, but not quite there yet. I don't need the book to have magic, but it is always a plus. I have already read: Arabella of Mars by David D. Levine Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal Sorcery & Cecelia: or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede & Caroline Stevermer and loved all of them. --Sidsel   4. I am looking for recommendations for my 11 year old daughter. She would love to read YA, but I think I would like to hold off from the love relationships and more adult themes for a little bit longer. Last year she read "Some Kind of Happiness" by Claire Legrand and said it was written for her. I'm looking for books that are perhaps more mature, but somewhere in between middle grade and YA. Thanks! --Lauren   5. Hi Amanda and Jenn, I am listening to Deadly Manners, a dark comedy murder-mystery podcast series I am in love with! It's an old-school style story with modern sensibilities. The plot: there's a dinner party and guests are getting picked off one by one, and Levar Burton narrates. Need I say more? I just finished the next to last episode and am already dreading the void in my life when it's over. Can you recommend some books to fill it? Thanks! --Alexis   6. I know Halloween just passed but I heard Shelly Laurenston's booklist from Smart Bitches, Trashy Books podcast, one of the things she mentions is psychopaths and I was wondering if you had any recommendations for this. I don't want mystery or thrillers, more like a mind dive into spotting them, try to understand why they do it or facts. Since the holiday are coming up I would like some recommendations as soon as possible please. --Ash   7. Hi Jenn and Amanda, I would love to get some recommendations for romance novels that deal with sexual trauma or sexual dysfunction (or that just acknowledge the fact that sex isn't always easy and fun). I'm not fussy about the type of romance (just no paranormal). I realize this may be difficult because romance is supposed to be escapist but I am desperate to see my experience represented.
