Shoulda Books theme song by Skyler Klingenberg

the year is almost over, so you know what that means...that's right, I'm making a dang tier list of all the things I read in the dumpster fire that was 2025. did I read an impressive number of books? NO. am I letting that stop me? no, but I do feel self-conscious. AND THAT'S OKAY.
some of the books I talk about in this episode are: The Hunger Games, Parable of the Sower, My Year of Rest and Relaxation, True West (not a book, but that's okay, you'll see what I'm doing), and MORE.
