In our ongoing rewatch of Friday Night Lights, I recapped “Tami Knows Best,” the second episode in season three and the first of many episodes in which new Principal Taylor comes head-to-head with the Dillon Boosters.
I also reviewed my experience seeing Much Ado About Nothing in London, a truly transformative event.
In this week’s Book Reports:
- Stephanie reviewed Samantha Markum’s Love, Off the Record, a satisfying college enemies-to-lovers romance.
- And Brian reviewed Kelly Andrew’s I Am Made of Death, a book about the dangers of too much money and evil things buried under abandoned houses.
