This is Read Receipts: A Big Screen Book Club where the pronunciations don’t matter! Every month over here at The Rolling Tape, we read a book, watch its onscreen adaptation, then share our receipts with our Read Receipts host Kasey Dunifer – or should I say Dune-ifer?

Because this month, for DUNE JUNE, we read none other than Frank Herbert’s 1965 seminal science-fiction novel DUNE. Additionally, we watched the first two installments in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune Trilogy: DUNE: PART ONE from 2021 and DUNE: PART TWO from 2024. This is in preparation for the final installment, DUNE, you guessed it, PART THREE, coming out later this year, adapting DUNE MESSIAH. This is a little something different for Read Receipts. It’s a Throwback adaptation and covering TWO films AND a kind of big book.

So Happy Dune June, everyone! Thanks for joining.
