THROWBACK: "I guess it's one of my favorite books?"


Listen Later

THROWBACK!! (Originially posted Oct 25, 2021) Get ready for another backlist episode! Before we get into the books we read quite some time ago, we're talking magic potions and what our ideal ones would do. After that, it's a fun episode where each host discusses a surprise backlist title, pulled from their Goodreads or booksta from years ago, by ANOTHER host, without doing much of a refresher. Enjoy! PS: if you're a fan club member, hope to see you at Rooney book club this Wednesday. Keep your 👀 peeled on the Patreon for that Zoom link. Thanks for being here!
