Description
Today, we’re chatting about flying broomsticks. Sound off in the comments, are flying broomsticks a real thing? No one can say for sure. But actually, now that it’s October, tune in to hear where we’d all fly if we were the witches of our dreams (aka: if we had a flying broomstick). Then we’re getting into the books, including an academic thriller, witchy horror, mind-bending sci-fi, and very messy, very queer literary fiction. Also, shoutout to Libby for running a marathon yesterday :) go, girl. THANKS FOR LISTENING, WE LOVE YOU! Grab your BATC merch here: https://www.booksandthecitypod.com/merch.
