This is Gasp! (Pad Thai p.2)
Episode 8: This is Gasp! (Pad Thai p.2)
Buckle up, bookish space cadets—things are about to get extra. This week, we attempted a civilized book club discussion, but this is Gasp! Off the Rails in the Cosmos, so you already know: decorum doesn’t stand a chance.
We meant to talk about:
- Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi
- Orbital by Samantha Harvey
- Welcome to Nightvale
- The Answer is No by Fredrik Backman
Kasie dishes on The Answer is No, picking up where Rachel’s hot take left off last episode (hit rewind if you missed it!). We also spiral into future reads like Siddhartha, The Lost Realms by Zecharia Sitchin, Sunrise on the Reaping, and The Bones Beneath My Skin. Oh—and Rachel? She’s clocked over 30 books since January. Casual.
📚 BONUS CHAOS: Mid-episode, an impromptu book rave breaks out when a group of women at the next table overhears us talking about time travel in cafes. Suddenly, it’s a full-on literary flash mob with hot takes
- Kate Quinn’s historical rabbit holes
- And some guy named Kormac... Kormick... Cormac McCarthy? (Sorry, literary gods.)
We did not plan this. It was glorious.
⚠️ Warning: Contains wildly off-topic tangents, spicy literary side-eye, surprise restaurant book debates, and enough chaos to short-circuit your starship’s navigation. Pour yourself a cosmic cup of coffee and enjoy the wormhole ride.
