Episode 4 - The Hate U Give (Part 2)

Getting real in Garden Heights.

It's finally here! Today, Pixie and Maria are discussing "The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas. It's only the hottest book of the year...and we're gonna dig right in!

If you missed our background episode on the book and author, go ahead and give Episode 3 a listen before you start this one. That one is safe, but be warned: this episode contains major spoilers! (It also contains Pixie's hilarious moving story...you definitely don't want to miss it!) Oh, and we announce our October read. Hint: it's got Spielberg ties.

Anyway, we're really proud of this episode — we think it's our best one yet! But we couldn't have done it without all the wonderful Misfits who've been chatting with us on Instagram, Twitter, and Goodreads. You guys are great, and some of get some specific shout-outs in this ep! We love, love, LOVE chatting with such fun people.

And hey, the conversation always has room for one more! So if you've got future book suggestions, thoughts about "The Hate U Give," or feedback on the podcast, drop us a line. You can find us at all the places below:

The Misfit Book Club Begins August 4th!

We're a book club for people who suck at book clubs

Episode Notes

Look: every bookworm has been there. You want to join a book club, but they're all in the middle of the day and an hour across town. And when you do find one that works, it can get even worse. Either the people are strange, or the books are bad, or no one talks about the book at all!

That's where The Misfit Book Club Podcast comes in.

We're a book club for the rest of us. No more trying to schedule a book club around your busy life. Just read the book at your own pace, pop in some headphones, and you're good to go! And if you want to make some new friends, we're all over social media. You can find us here:

Our goal is to build a fun, online community of opinionated, sassy bookworms who can share their love of reading with one another. So, let's get this party started!
