Welcome to Episode 4! Today Sophie and I discuss our tandem read of Mother in the Dark by Kayla Maiuri.

We really enjoyed listening to this debut novel together and then realized how differently we interpreted the story. There is a lot to unpack in this rather short novel and after we taped, we decided we want to make book discussions an even bigger part of our podcast!

And of course we continue with our regular segments as well. Grab your coffee and come join us!

In this episode we shirking tradition and have forgone a trailer episode. We dive right into some brief introductions so you can get to know us. In each episode, we begin with “I thought of you when…” where we each talk about something that reminded us of the other person that week. Then we launch into a discussion of our most recent travels, Sophie to Mexico City and Deb to Maine. We end as we always do with “What’s in Your Book Bag?” and “What’s in Your Ear Bud?” discussing the products/books/things we cannot live without as well as what audio content we are addicted to this week.
