Othersode #22: Drink Every Time We’re Self-Congratulatory / Favorites of 2018

It's time for our second annual End-of-the-Year celebration here at the Book Squad Goals clubhouse. Grab a hot cuppa tea and/or a tall glass of wine and party with us as we go through our favorite things of 2018. And then... we open presents! Sorry, we didn't get you anything. This is awkward. Please don't forget to rate, review, subscribe and come back for our final episode of the year when we'll be discussing Shobha Rao's novel "Girls Burn Brighter"!

Listen to "Othersode #22: Drink Every Time We're Self-Congratulatory / Favorites of 2018" on Spreaker.
