Hey Well Read Baddies! We’re back with chapters 33–36 of Happy Land by Dolen Perkins-Valdez — and trust us, the stakes are sky-high. In this episode, four generations land under one roof, “land vs. family” collisions take center stage, and Wade’s rushed trial delivers a gut-punch verdict that threatens the Kingdom itself. We break down the courtroom power plays, the consequences of that fateful deed, and how generational guilt ripples through Nikki’s present. Plus, in our coffee break, we share our latest reads — Lana dives into Make a Scene by Mimi Grace, while Sam revisits Deja Brew by Celestine Martin. We also chat about our realistic fall TBR goals and what’s coming next in our Substack roundup. Content warning: racial violence, wrongful conviction, family conflict. Reading along or just here for the convo, grab your copy of Happy Land and tune in — things are getting real in the Kingdom. P.S.
