Mean Book Club

Booking Overview

Mean Book Club is a comedic, cathartic show where four women roast and critique NYT bestselling novels with “questionable literary merit.” It’s a fun pitch for authors and media folks who want a mainstream-y, humor-first audience reaction rather than a traditional literary discussion.
