Booksology Dr. Abbott reads a book
One of my favorite derivatives of the hit series is playing derivative content like quick interviews, fashion recaps, and where have I seen you before? And on very rare occasions, I get something related to books. Someone at Cultured was clearly trolling Shawn Hatosy’s article (Dr. Abbot on the pit) I saw on social that there were some books out there. So they honked their horns and made him ask about it. When he looked up the name “The Great Gatsby,” I was a little skeptical. That’s because it might be true, but it’s also just something you might say. But I’m not just saying that my favorite recent read is a book about dictionaries called Unabridged. If you happen to think that Pretending Unabridged is your favorite book, I’ll still give it full marks.
