Book Club: Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

We are excited to announce that our first Bad Ideas Book Club book is Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine! With a movie version of this novel in the works (produced by Reese Witherspoon!), we thought it was the perfect time to pick up this book. Book of the Month called it "a warm account of one woman's fight to let go of old hurts and insecurities and make room for self-acceptance and friends."Read with us as we navigate through Eleanor Oliphant's complex, weird, and charming life.

What really drew us to this book was the title. All three of us are at that point in life where we say "it's fine, I'm fine" ironically, and we are interested to see if Eleanor has this same quality. We suspect that Eleanor is not actually fine.

Tune in every week on our podcast or on this blog as we discuss the book and talk about all of our bad ideas.
