On Wednesdays We Read Podcast

Welcome to OWWR Pod, and by that we mean, On Wednesdays We Read

We are two best friends who are doing a deep dive into a book series, one book at a time.

Hannah and Laura are discussing the Oscar-nominee, Bugonia, in today's episode! They discuss the fantastic acting, do their best to sort out what is actually happening in this movie, and try to decide whether they actually like Bugonia or not. It's all confusion. #bugonia #analysis #movies #oscars n today's episode Hannah talks about a delightful fox book that she read, and Laura gives an update on her "year of movies." They also chat about the characters and themes of Tana French's book, Broken Harbor, and Hannah shares a review she wrote about the book after her original read. A huge thank you to @deadbirdbrewing for hosting us this Sunday for OWWR first LIVE RECORDING!! We truly appreciate their hospitality (and food). We loved talking Star Wars, feminism, and book swapping!!! We are discussing the second half of Broken Harbor by Tana French and loving this emotional rollercoaster that they're being taken on. They also discuss a stunning book Hannah read that gives vibes of Studio Ghibli and why Laura is furious that Netflix is giving Uglies a sequel. #sff #Bookstagram #books #reading #fantasy Hannah and Laura are so excited to be celebrating the release of @adamcbassett's new book, Copper Skin, Oaken Lungs, by chatting with the author himself! Adam talks about his inspirations for this unique, YA fantasy, blending magic with technology, and finding joy in difficult times. #books #sff #indieauthor #bookbirthday #bookstagram Today on OWWR PATREON, we are discussing Episode 1 of Dresden Files TV Show, "Birds of a Feather" this pilot (or is it a third episode?) is....anticlimactic?
