This episode is brought to you by Bird's Eye Chicken Dippers.

Whether you like cooking or parenting podcasts, it's safe to say we've all got different tastes,

and that's fine.

So wherever you dip your chicken dippers in,

catch up, mayo or even gravy, it's all good.

If you're after a convenient and tasty mealtime or snack,

then pick up some bird's eye chicken dippers

at a major supermarket today.

For chicken worth dipping, it better be bird's eye. This is the Book Riot Podcast, a weekly news and talk show about what's new, cool and

worth talking about in the world of books and reading. This is episode 38. We're recording on Friday

January 31st. I'm Rebecca Shinsky and I'm here with Jeff O'Neill and we are the

editors of Book Riot.com. Jeff, happy Friday man. It's Friday. It's Friday. I got a little bit of a cold but that is not doing

damage to my happiness for it to be Friday. We've been through worse together on

the show. That's right. That's right. Is my first week back from

vacation? So we're back to the real world. The end of January, February on the

horizon. Is this the bleak midwinter? You never can tell it all feels bleak.

I don't know. We don't really get bleak midwinter in Richmond which like I kind of

wish that we did. I was in

Someone the other day and we were trying to decide if January was in fact the worst month the cruelest

Yeah, I don't know if it's the cruelest it's just the worst. I think February is actually less, but at least the next month is March. The worst of January. It's terrible and you're like, oh, and guess what we get next?

February. You're coming off the holidays, you're tired, it's cold, the weather's crap, and then you have to think about going into February.

Like there's no light at the end of the tunnel yet.
