Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen (Part 2)

Graceling by Kristin Cashore (Part 1)

“Katsa: The Baddest Bitch That Ever Lived” is a better title for this book. Joanna and Kevin read Kristin Cashore’s Graceling (2008) and learn what is a Grace, why every high fantasy has seven kingdoms, and just how hot Prince Po is.  To get in touch, email us at orwerewe13@gmail.com with any comments or episode suggestions!

Christopher Paolini and the Publication of Eragon

In a special minisode, Kevin tells Joanna the origin of how Eragon (2002) came to be. Learn all about Christopher Paolini, the wild ride of getting this book published, and Kevin’s personal history with Eragon (and its much maligned movie adaptation).

Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment by James Patterson

Bad science has finally arrived! This week Joanna and Kevin read James Patterson’s Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment (2005) and discuss just what would 2% bird DNA do to a person, how many times can you have the same plot before it gets boring, and should James Patterson be allowed to write YA novels.   To get in touch, email us at orwerewe13@gmail.com with any comments or episode suggestions!

Wringer by Jerry Spinelli

Jerry Spinelli was truly a man of many stories. In what is probably just the beginning of reading his backlog, Joanna and Kevin explore Wringer (1997). A boy’s coming-of-age story that involves a surprising amount of pigeons, this is surely a blast from the past.  To get in touch, email us at orwerewe13@gmail.com with any comments or episode suggestions!

The Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner

A true oldie is being read in this episode! Join Joanna and Kevin in reading The Boxcar Children (1942) by Gertrude Chandler Warner, and learn about some good-old New Englander self-reliance and just how much Kevin likes descriptions of food.  To get in touch, email us at orwerewe13@gmail.com with any comments or episode suggestions!
