Episode description

Whip out your white party make-up and glitter, it's 'Twilight' time!

Yes, you read that right, the Smug Book Club boys (or are we now men?) have focused their laser sharp wits on Stephenie Meyer's classic vampire novel.

This work of Young Adult (YA) fiction is one of the most famous books of the last 20 years — and, potentially, ever — so the time was nigh to finally give it a read. Oh, and the fact Meyer also recently released another novel, 'Midnight Sun.' But we don't really cover that, so don't worry about it, okay?

Anyhow... this wasn't the best novel the Smug Book Club manboys have ever read, but what do you expect? It is 'Twilight' after all.

What it lacks in outright quality though, it makes up with discussion points. So, friend, join us on a magical journey where we look at important topics like:

  • What happened in 2005 when the book was released
  • Stephanie Meyer's influences
  • Whether or not 'Twilight' is actually dangerous (and not in a cool way)
  • Chuckling
  • And much, much more

See you on the other side, sparkly vampires.
