Is this the saddest book ever? Well... yeah. It's kinda in the title. Join Jess and Lauren for the first volume of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, a bummer of an epic novel that will make you super glad that you're not a single mother in old-timey France. Silver lining: there's a marmot!

#15: 1984 (with Sean Scrutchins)

Why the f*** did we read this book? Join Denver comediennes/book nerds Jessica Austgen and Lauren Bahlman as they dive back into the required reading list to see which books are still awesome... and which scarred us for life. (Spoiler: The Outsiders is great and Tess of the D'Urbervilles can suck it.)
