Have you ever felt literary peer pressure? A book so giant and so widely praised that you know you have to read it? For me, that was June's bestseller, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong. My college roommate, groomsman at my wedding, and overall amazing friend Scott Duel joins Furthermore to share his own experience reading the poet's first Novel.Did Scott and I delve in, or did Ocean Vuong go back on our shelves? We'll discuss the Vietnam War, shared books we love, monkey brains, and ask ourselves; how far out of your comfort zone should you go? And, if you don't love what you everyone else can't stop talking about, should you keep reading or can you put it down?
