Us Just Struggling to Pronounce “Aurora‪”‬ Books and the City

Helloooo, and welcome to our last recording from upstate! Shoutout to us for managing to stretch this trip out a solid few weeks. So we’re reveling in a fun in-person “upstate” recording and chatting about our ideal middle school slumber partiess before we jump into some entertaining book talk! On the docket today, we have some sci-fi, a magical murder mystery, a villain origin story, and some contemporary witchy satire. Thank you for listening, we love you forever!
