Ep 11 "you NEED TO read When the Moon Hatched" + UPDATE! Books That Made Us "The Dark is Rising" Review

Besties and the Books Podcast

What happens when Ashley and Liz accidentally read different books for an episode?! We thought we were both reading The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper - the middle school nostalgia read we previously picked for this series. HOWEVER… we didn’t. Listen on to find out how that snaphoo occurred, and what we thought about the nostalgia books we DID read.
We’ve also got STRONG opinions on When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A. Parker. Not only was it our April BestiesandtheBookClub pick, but it was the star of both of our faves of the week.
And make sure to stick around until the end because you can bet we’ve got a smash or pass for the ages… a little bit of time travel for our fellow millennials and a classic granddaddy of magic.
