Chapter 9: This Book Sucks and So Does My Job

📚 Episode Summary:
In this episode of Paperbacks and Paychecks, Sara and Noelle ask the age-old question: Is it okay to just quit? Whether it’s ditching a trauma-drenched novel or finally breaking up with a job that’s lost the plot, the duo dives into what it means to walk away—without guilt.

They spill their personal DNF (Did Not Finish) book habits, rant about overdone tropes (looking at you, bratty teen daughters), and get real about when a job deserves your two weeks—and when it deserves your silence. From PIPs that are really just pre-firing warnings to managers who ask about your “nether regions,” it’s a candid convo on boundaries, burnout, and the radical act of quitting.

Oh, and if you’ve ever hate-read a book just to leave a scorched-earth Goodreads review... yeah, same.
