Kristia almost snuck out the bathroom window, but for you dear listeners she hung in there and Rachael gives her lowest rating yet. Take a listen to see why these books just didn't do it for us. We've got sheriffs, a bed side confessional, lighthouses, a possibly not dead child, and some reporters coming in to do what they do best.Check out our Instagram for a giveaway stating tonight! instagram.com/isntitpastyourbedtimeBooks Discussed:Unspoken by Lisa JacksonThe Ridge by Michael Korytawww.isntitpastyourbedtime.com37 min
