Ep 39: Piranesi Discussion (A Thumbelina Story)
<p>Happy Wednesday! </p><p>As promised we are still semi-back! This week we read the instant-classic, Piranesi, by Suzanna Clark. A traipse through a classical architecture-inspired, labyrinthine, Salvador Dali-esque "house" turns slowly into a dark academia style mystery in this unique novel. Spoiler alert - we loved it! Piranesi was the most lovable protagonist and the inner-monologue of his first-person perspective is beyond endearing. </p><p>Pour up a drink, get comfy, and enjoy this week's episode!</p><p>Next book: The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins </p><p>Love ya, </p><p>-Em and SK <3</p>

Ep 38: Restless Stars (Zodiac Academy #9, FINALLY!!!) Discussion
<p>Well, well, well… if it isn’t Wednesday!</p><p>That hasn’t meant anything for the last 7 months, but it means something today… The 5 O’Clock Book Club is back! We had to take some time off because life is crazy (you know how it is)! But we are semi-back and so happy to be. You can start expecting new episodes from us, albeit sporadically (at least once a month maybe?, idk we’ll see). </p><p>This week we finally finished the Zodiac Academy series, all 9 of them! Now we can move on with our lives! From the first to the last book we have witnessed character development and growth; we have laughed, cried, and cringed; we have questioned the authors’ and our own sanity. But most of all, we’ve had a ball (no rhyme intended)! What more is there to say? Thank you Zodiac Academy, thank you Suzanne Valenti, thank you Caroline Peckam, y’all are wild! We had a great time!!!!</p><p>Now that that’s settled, pour up your drink, kick back, and enjoy this week’s episode! </p><p>Love ya, </p><p>-Em and SK <3</p><p><br></p>

Ep 37: Alchemised Discussion (Nutcrackers and Botox)
<p>Happy, happy Wednesday and welcome back to another episode of The 5 O'Clock Book Club. </p><p>This week we read SenLinYu's debut novel, Alchemised. This book has been long-awaited, it has broken records, and it is SO good. Alchemised is an adapted version of an online work by the same author called Manacled, which was originally written as a work of Harry Potter fan fiction. Don't let this turn you off, though; this is no Master-of-the-Universe-turned-50-Shades-of-Grey. Alchemised is a work of art, it is surprising and emotionally devastating in the best possible way.</p><p>Get comfy and pour up a drink (or two, this one's a long one) and enjoy the episode!! </p><p>Next episode: The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley (probably lol)</p><p>Love ya, </p><p>-Em and SK <3 </p>
