There’s no better time to read than summer, so for this episode, we’re talking two books that make great summer reads.

Both Haley and I go outside our usual boxes to talk fiction we wouldn’t normally read—she’s going for something written in the last fifty years (gasp!), and I go for a sci-fi with a lot of heart.

We loved both. In this episode, you’ll hear why.

(Also, check out our last episode, where you’ll hear our list of recommendations for your summer reading list.)
