Bookbabble Episode 27: Abandoning Books!

Recorded 1 March 2009

Babblers: Bjorn, Gem, Renee aka Irene Wilde, Donny

Synopsis:

Today the group talks about the cardinal sin (not the Philippine archbishop) of book lovers, the act of abandoning books without completing them.  What would compel one to drop these books unread?  The babblers share books that has been abandoned, what precipitated the drop.  Also, why Bjorn feels a little tentative about the upcoming Watchmen movie.

And, we kept it below 1 hour.  Shocking.
