Nerdette Book Club is wrapping up October with this spoiler-filled, delightful conversation on Celeste Ng’s newest novel, Our Missing Hearts. Our panelists this month are Dessa, rapper, writer, and author of the new poetry collection Tits on the Moon, and Elise Hu, Ted Talks Daily host and NPR host-at-large.

We unpack the dystopian novel’s connections to reality, themes of motherhood, and the lines that will stick with us. Thank you to all of the listeners who joined the conversation!
