Listen "Ep #116: Short Reads! "
Episode Synopsis
On today's episode we are discussing short reads and quick books! We love big books and we cannot lie but not everyone does or has the time so today's episode is all about shorter books that can be read over a long weekend (which is perfect for our American listeners with Memorial Day right around the corner).
