Waddup, book nerds! This week our special guest Joanna Borns (BuzzFeed, The Onion) made us read I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell by Tucker Max. This piece of fratire was a #1 New York Times Bestseller and made the Best Seller List each year from 2006 to 2012.  It has sold over one million copies and was turned into a movie (that bombed) in 2009. But why? Mean Book Club breaks it down.

Mean Book Club is four ladies (from UCB-NY, HuffPost, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit. It's fun. It's cathartic. It's perfect for your commute. New podcast (almost) every Tuesday!

If you want to read along with us during our 5th season, here’s the reading list:

- Bridget Jones' Diary by Helen Fielding
- How To Win Friends by Dale Carnegie
- Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus by John Gray
- Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand (Part 1 & Part 2)
- I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell by Tucker Max
- Dianetics by L. Ron Hubbard
- Congo by Michael Crichton
