Description
Lindsay (@theopinionatereader) may have been tasked with the most challenging podcast assignment yet, but it seemed fitting for a bookstagrammer that builds a brand on strong book opinions. So today we discuss three books she loved and three books she hated. Learn some of the best practices for sharing negative book reviews and what surprising author friendship blossomed from a positive book review. CONTENT WARNINGS FOR TODAY (with timestamps):Today's episode does have trigger warnings for the last portion of our show (in the negative review section). The negative reviews do have spoilers.43:05- A rape case is mishandled and there is a discussion on how this case would actually be handled based on Lindsay's background (and her husband's background) working as a sex crime's detective and intern in the sex crimes unit. 52:52- May be triggering to those facing disabilities because it is about someone being dishonest about a health diagnosis.
