Join Meggie and Laura for a very special one-off YA, We Read It! ahead of their next season where they are reading Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston.
Alex and Henry couldn't be more different despite both being children of powerful political figures. Alex, the First Son of the United States yearns for a political career himself and spends plenty of time loathing the dashing and eligible Prince Henry. When their disdain for each other leads to a PR-stunt-friendship, the two sworn enemies soon become lovers in this contemporary romance. We are screaming, giggling, kicking our feet the whole way through! Tune in!

It was 2005 when Twilight first graced the world with its presence, and now 19 years later Meggie and Laura have finished reading the entire series for your listening pleasure. It's once again time to put their final thoughts to rest on the highly popularized vampire romance. We're discussing our thoughts on this as a romance, a vampire story, and just an all around book series in general. It's insightful, it's fun, and we hope you'll go on this one last Twilight stroll down memory lane.

If there is anything breaking: it's our hearts. The time had come to say goodbye to reading Twilight with the lukewarm conclusion to Breaking Dawn. Laura and Meggie are ready to give you their takes on everything: Bella's new life as a vampire (complete with vampire powers), the nonexistent all-powerful Vampire fight, and most importantly more in depth discussions on how Jacob imprinted on a baby, like how he gave her a promise ring for Christmas (gross). All this and more, tune in!
