It Gets Good

WAY back in the day (Episode 11, to be exact!), we played Would You Rather with some bookish questions, and we decided it was time to bring it back for Episode 185! A huge thank-you to everyone who submitted questions! We had so much fun answering them, and clearly, you know us well because so many of your questions revolved around Alchemised and just how much we disliked it. Needless to say, your...

Well… we're back with another cursed book club read: Verity by Colleen Hoover. We would like to formally apologize to everyone who read this book and didn't like it, we're sorry we made you read this.

We're crossing our fingers that next month's book club, Sense and Sensi...
