Dave and Aaron are HUGE fans of Star Wars, but how good is the "Shakespeare" adaptation of a New Hope? Aaron shares his thoughts... #books #reviews #scifi #starwars #shakespeare #theatre
This book is what you'd get if you crossed X-Men and the Bourne Identity. Dave just wrapped up the trilogy and won't stop raving about it. Have you read it? What are your thoughts? Message us at backlistpodcast@gmail.com #bookreviews #scifi #thriller #abnorms #mutants Music by hooksounds.com
Aaron reviews the brand new novella from debut author Angus McIntyre! It's a very cool book about a man with multiple personas in his head--each with a unique set of skills--who must defend his town from dangerous mercenaries. #books #reviews #sciencefiction Music by hooksounds.com
After reading this book, we can no longer fully trust house pets. It is suuuuper weird and dark, but it is impossible to put down. #bookreviews #dystopian #scifi #animals #EMSAH Music from hooksounds.com
While Dave readily admits that the book was well-written, he thought The Handmaid's Tale was wildly unpleasant... If you like dark, depressing dystopian novels, this might be for you! #bookreviews #scifi #dystopian Music by hooksounds.com

We take a break from the sci-fi/fantasy books we normally cover to discuss a pretty shocking story of cold blooded murder from the 1920s. While the book isn't a "fun" read, it's important that we know the horrors of our history. #bookreviews #truecrime #mystery #history #nonfiction Music courtesy of hooksounds.com…
On a very special Valentine's Day episode, Aaron chats with his wife Heather about the latest sci-fi spectacle from Andy Weir, the author of The Martian.

I thought that this was a podcast about reading books? Aren't audio books cheating? NOPE! Prepare to double your double the number of books you read. #twominutetip #books #reading #audiobooks All that cool music in our podcasts comes from hooksounds.com
What do you get when you combine a book about the joys of technology with the passion of baking? This weird, wonderful gem of a book by the same author who brought you Mr Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore. Dave really enjoyed this book (which is not surprising based on how much bread he eats).

This book won the 2017 World Fantasy Award, so we had to take a look at it. The protagonist: a jewel thief who people immediately forget about 60 seconds after they stop talking to her... their memories of her are completely gone. Dave LOVED the premise of the book, but does it stick the landing? To share with us what you are reading, email backlistpodcast@gmail.com. #thriller #scifi #review #doyouhaveperfection?

Is it a sc-fi novel? Is it a harboiled detective noir? Yes. What are you reading? Message us at backlistpodcast@gmail.com #scifi #mystery #bodysleeves Music courtesy of www.hooksongs.com ****EPISODE NOTE: According to reviews, the Netflix show is very, very graphic and we are super bummed out :( While we really enjoyed the book, we are in NO WAY endorsing the series. Resorting to "sexploitation" in order to get viewers for your show is gross. Yes, there was content issues in the book (I would definitely rate it "R"), but apparently it's even more over the top in the Netflix series.…
