I'm here with Liberty Hardy from all the books, and we are coming to you from Book Riot. What's up Liberty? Hello, Jen. I'm very excited to talk about books with you. Yay. I miss you. We used to do all the books together. I know. I was thinking I used to be on all the books. And you were on some very early episodes of Get Booked plus some since then. So you haven't

0:57.2

been on for a while though. No. No. So this is going to be awesome. We're going to nerd out.
