Shannon is finally back from her vacation (aka the longest week of the pandemic, according to Shandy). In this episode, we'll discuss vacation reading, Hamilton's Battalion, and our latest and greatest reads, romance and otherwise. Buckle up, it's a long one...but can you blame us? We had two weeks' worth of romance to fit into one episode!
