Welcome to Episode 4! Today Sophie and I discuss our tandem read of Mother in the Dark by Kayla Maiuri.

We really enjoyed listening to this debut novel together and then realized how differently we interpreted the story. There is a lot to unpack in this rather short novel and after we taped, we decided we want to make book discussions an even bigger part of our podcast!

And of course we continue with our regular segments as well. Grab your coffee and come join us!
