Everyone please give a warm welcome to Nicole Phillips, our first guest of 2023! Nicole is our local Acotar Expert and Goodreads 1 Star Extraordinaire. Thank you everyone for putting up with us for 100 episodes! This guest episode was VERY last minute (seriously I cannot stress how last minute this was) Initially we were going to skip recording this week due to some travel though I thought this would be a very fun time. Please excuse the audio as the setup had to be adjusted and there was no time to knock out some kinks in the recording though I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed recording. 

Be sure to pick up your copy of Catch Me If You Can for March!

Recorded a couple of days ago on a podcast far far down the itunes charts, we discussed Claudia Gray's SW novel Lost Stars! Maybe one of our best book conversations ever, which probably isn't saying much but still, it was a great episode! Put your speeder bike on cruise control and hangout with us as we ride alongside the rebellion and get a sneak peek of how the ole' empire brainwashes new recruits. We follow the story of Thane and Ciena as they weave throughout the plot of some of the most iconic Star Wars movie moments. Have you ever wondered how insufferable it was to hear non-stop about this farm kid from Tatooine who never stopped bragging about how he could bullseye womp rats in his T-16 back home....this is the story for you! Join us as we discuss the inner workings of the empire and rebellion, love that survives the test of time (among many other tests), and our favorite moments of viewing iconic SW scenes through new POVs. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! Let us know either way! 

May the Force be with you!

Hello hello hello and welcome welcome welcome to our January book episode! We're going back in time to the early days of the gaming industry to follow a group of friends who take the pixelated world by storm. We discuss what the themes and title of the book mean to us as well as the complex and cyclical relationships of our main characters. Don't forget about the other main characters, the video games! While our enjoyment of the book varies and spans the entire spectrum, what's undeniable is the talent of the author and quality of the writing. There is so much more we wish we could have discussed! Let us know your take on the story!! What was your favorite game? We'd love to hear all your thoughts!
