About this episode

In this episode, Stephanie Gagnon and guest Anna Dupre discuss the TV show Mad Men and recommend books that align with its characters.

I basically forced Anna from Anna Rose Reads to watch Mad Men, so we decided to record an episode to get all of our thoughts out and decide what books to recommend for each character.
