Summary

Coming at you live from London as Craig is on location for the week before returning stateside. But the jetsetting has left Craig jetlagged but rather than being unproductive he decided to give us an impromptu book club. So he went online and ordered 4 books that he has to recommend to us. But there’s a catch, he’s yet to read the books. So he’s flying purely on titles and descriptions for us. Buckle up. Have a question for Craig?
