We’re down a host today (and for the rest of April), as Emily was away “science-ing” and finishing up that pesky dissertation. Send her all your good vibes! And enjoy this episode, in which Becky, Kayla, and Libby discuss the childhood books they’d love to see turned into movies (or limited series, there are no rules here). Then, the books! It’s a thriller, another thriller, and some literary fiction. Thanks very much for listening! Grab your BATC merch here: https://www.booksandthecitypod.com/merch.
