Season 1, Episode 6

Written By Amy Lovat

In this episode... we talk about what we've been reading lately and how we decide what to read next when we have teetering piles all over the house. And we reveal how many books we own after creating a Google spreadsheet inventory. Then we contemplate why we're all so obsessed with con artists and scammers right now, and share some life updates, like the fact that we just moved house again for the fifth time in two years. Listen to find out why!
