Every journey begins with a single step, and that includes our reading journey. In this episode, our lovely hosts discuss their reading journeys, and how reading has impacted them and made them into who they are today. They discuss favorite childhood stories, early memories of their favorite mystery novels, and how their obsession with morally gray characters may have started a bit earlier than they thought.
