On this episode we discuss the Books & Boba Book Club pick for October 2017, The Ghost Bride by Yangsze Choo, a ghost story taking place in 1890's Malaysia. Reera marvels at the beautifully described settings while Marvin is drawn into the mysteries at the heart of the story. Join them as they discuss Choo's portrayal of the Chinese afterlife and the ghosts and deities that operate there.
