Ep 08 “Book Memory Unlocked” BOOKS THAT MADE US ✨ Elementary & Middle School Edition

This week Ashley and Liz kick off the episode with some serious Millennial nostalgia. We’re talking American Eagle jeans, Warped Tour, and books from the 90’s!

We take you on a journey back to your youth through the books that made us who we are today. What stories molded our easily pliable elementary and middle school brains? The Hobbit, Anne of Green Gables, and DEAR AMERICA BOOKS… just to name a few.

Then we choose one to reread with you! We hope this process unlocks some magical moments along the way, just like it has for us.

Last, we wrap it up with our signature smash or pass XMen / Star Wars style.
