A while back we had a listener ask us how we would talk to other people about books we don't like. This got us thinking. The truth is that Andrews always have strong opinions, so when we react poorly to a book we usually do so long and loud. But how do we make sure we are still representing the book fairly and humbly to others, whether to our students or even just to our friends? This great question is on the table in today's episode.
