To All the YA is back, and they're crashing right into the 90s this season with a middle school favorite of both Kaycee and Ashley's, The Face on the Milk Carton by Caroline B. Cooney. In this episode, they dive into themes of identity and family, touch on the Stranger Danger panic that was alive and well in the 70s and 80s, and talk about the ways this book surprised us. Plus, we may have a contender for the worst book boyfriend of the year…but it’s only February.
