Show notes:

We could’ve just vomited a list of our best books for you, but to be honest, neither of us wanted to record a 2 hour long episode. You’re welcome. Instead, we decided to do a superlative style recap for you. Join the fun as we talk about books that made us cry, that surprised us, that kept us up at night, and so much more.
