Show Notes

Sarah, Sophie and Sallie put down their own books for a minute to diagnose the reading lives of Grey’s Anatomy’s most iconic characters – because if they’re real (and we’ve decided they are), they definitely read.

For each character we debate their ultimate favourite book, their unexpected guilty-pleasure genre, and the one thing that makes them DNF on the spot. Expect fierce disagreement, an unhinged Miranda Bailey romantasy theory, and Derek Shepherd getting exactly the scrutiny he deserves.

Books mentioned: Black Sun (Rebecca Roanhorse), The Difference Engine (William Gibson & Bruce Sterling), I’m Glad My Mom Died (Jennette McCurdy), Ripe (Sarah Rose Etter), Notorious RBG (Irin Carmon & Shana Knizhnik), Normal People (Sally Rooney), When Breath Becomes Air (Paul Kalanithi), Becoming (Michelle Obama), It Ends With Us (Colleen Hoover) and The New Life (Tom Crewe).
