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 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?
