Summary

This episode we're discussing our adult book of the month, Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win, by Jo Piazza! We LOVED this book. It's simultaneously such an important book (it's the first fiction book about a woman running for office), but it's also a light, easy read.

This book sparked some important conversation (We were nervous to talk about politics here!)

Join us next week for advice, and in two weeks for our YA Pick... Children of Bone and Blood!
