Hey guys!
First off: we are not going anywhere!
We are just taking a break for the summer. Recently I've been having trouble keeping up with things and I have several trips planned over the next two months. So instead of rushing through and giving you episodes I haven't taken the time to really dive into just to keep on schedule, I've decided we'll take a break for this summer.
We will be back in September with our regularly scheduled programming :)
In the meantime, you can still earn house points on our Instagram (@firstyearspod) and if you want some non-related book content, you can find me on TikTok at @veritasarahm.
See you back on the Hogwarts Express! <3

I also wanted to apologize for the recent audio quality not being as good as you guys are used to. I have new upstairs neighbors that have made it very difficult to record without using the highest level of background noise cancellation. I'm currently in the process of moving to a new space that will be much more podcast friendly :) I appreciate your patience during this time! <3
