Getting Loony with The Grace Year

This week on Getting Literate, Katie and Julia dive into the hottest new YA that everyone's talking about: The Grace Year. The gals discuss girls going wild, teenage girlhood, and why YA dystopia hasn't been good since The Hunger Games. Julia wants to learn more about flower meanings, and Katie is overcome with emotion at the way Kim Liggett handles girlhood. PLUS: Marina and The Diamonds, Beauty Queens by Libba Bray, and wildly, no Ophelia. As always, there's definitely spoilers, so proceed with caution.

Heads up on some audio issues - we are newly able to be in person, and still figuring out just how that works!

This week's book was The Grace Year, by Kim Liggett. More info at http://www.kimliggett.com/books/
