Reading Harry Potter For The First Time As Adults! | Sorcerer's Stone | Bonus Minisode 1 Artwork

Besties and the Books Podcast

We’re Ashley and Liz, two real-life besties who’ve loved books since we first learned to read, so naturally, we started a podcast! We would say the rest is history but in actuality, it's just the beginning. So come join us in the next chapter of our lives as we introduce ourselves, and laugh our way through the world of books with a focus on Fantasy, Romantasy, and Dark Romance. Of course we have love for all book genres, but those are our absolute favorites!

Welcome to Ashley & Liz’s first mini episode bonus series, this round featuring Harry Potter!

If you’ve been following our “satanic panic” series then you know, we were BANNED from reading Harry Potter as children, so we’re reclaiming that experience for ourselves by reading this series FOR THE FIRST TIME as mid 30’s fantasy obsessed book podcasters. And we’re takin’ you all along for the ride!

Episode 1 covers book 1: Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone. The first five-ish minutes are spoiler free with our one sentence rapid star reviews. Then we jam pack this mini episode with an entire plot summary in five sentences, what our faves and fail characters and plot points are, our feelings on if it should've been banned, and end with a fun piece of HP trivia.
