bonus chapter: slump city, b*tch

talk lit, get hit

one slump to rule them all, one slump to find them. one slump to bring them all and in the darkness bind them. if you, like us, have found yourself caught in the shackles of a mid-year reading slump then find comfort in this episode. we discuss our respective months-long slumps, the perfect formula to finding a book that will lift us out of the murky depths of literary ambivalence and try to define what exactly it is that makes a book a real stinker and the circumstances that lead to a slump in the first place.
