This book is filled with ghost puns and jokes, a dog mayor, and a surprising number of sexy scenes considering our couple cant touch each other for 80% of the book. We loved this listener suggestion and how y...

Listen to these two dumb-dumbs get closer to love in this...

There's plenty of secret pining and also plenty of cats...

Will you swoon over Alex Volkov, our 26 year-old billionaire broody boy, like Alison? Or will you think he's just a jerk who's mean to his employees, like Rachel?

August 23, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 99.8 MBHey pals! Today, we’re kicking off our discussion on the most unnecessary book in the Twilight saga, ECLIPSE by Stephenie Meyer. Edward and Bella are back and more unhealthy than ever. Jacob keeps trying to insert himself into every situation. 90% of the people in Bella's life are villains. Justice for Leah Clearwater! Basically nothing and everything happens in this book, and we spent most of the time being shocked that we didn't learn the info revealed in Eclipse earlier in the series. Thi...
