What happens when the society you live in picks your family, spouse, and job? What happens when your emotions are suppressed and every part of your day is laid out? You don’t have to worry about free will and struggle is non-existent. But can we really call that Living? Follow along with Jonas as his world is turned upside down when he finds out the truth about his community.
Now follow along while Em and Jordan sing praises over the book and groan in utter disappointment over the movie. Seriously, what a dumpster fire.
Our Drink for this Book: Kool-aid and your favorite liquor, because once you drink the Kool-aid all your free will is gone
Our Drinking Game for this Movie: Drink every time you think someone is lying OR just stop the movie and go play two truths and a lie instead.
What’s Making Us Happy This Week:
Jordan: Killing Eve
Em: Daemon Blackfyre
