We Read Banned Books! There, we said it! In honor of Banned Book Week (September 22 - 28, 2019)we've selected books that closed-minded adults decided to ban. This week we're talking about one book that they may have been justly banning (at least for that age group) and one they definitely got wrong! #whichnotwitch TW: Rape, slavery, and possession. To avoid those topics, skip 6:30-12:45. As always, you can check out all our past books (and soon to be all the books we read that we don't talk about on the podcast) at our website: www.isntitpastyourbedtime.com

43 min - Episode 05 - Back to School
WARNING: The sound quality on this episode is rough! We were just so excited and didn't research recording quality like we should have. The sound vastly improves in episode 6. It's back to school season! A former AP student & an AP dropout go back and read books everyone seems to have read already. It's a Major Major episode - even if it gets a little Jeremy Bearimy in the middle. PS: Keep your smoke signal fire lit if you want to get rescued & when someone asks you not to call them Piggy, be cool & respect that.
