This is episode 137.

We're recording on Thursday, December 17th. I'm Jeff O'Neill. I'm here

with Rebecca Shinsky and we're coming to you from Book Riot.com. We did find it. We found

it finally. It's the slowest news week of the year yes and usually there's like a

surprise where we say this is going to be the slowest news a week and then

something crazy happens has actually been the slowest news week of the year.

Maybe next year or next week we'll get the publishing equivalent of the Surprise Beyoncé.

Right, maybe. I used to say that in the summertime when we first started the show like you know I thought you know in August and the dog is always something but I guess that was the fall was a coming and now there's not really much news going on I guess everyone is going to see Star Wars and or

Hamilton. I can't get away from... Or both, yeah. So it's kind of a slow week, but there's some stuff

going on, but not much in the way of headlines.

I've got some follow-up.

We've got some news, and I guess next week we're going to do a year and review show in anticipation

that will probably be this low week.
