On Wednesdays We Read (OWWR Pod)

Ep. 98- No. I Can't Handle That (Jade Legacy)

Season 4 Episode 12

Hannah and Laura are trying to mend their broken hearts, and they don't know where to start.  Jade Legacy has wrecked them, but they try to work through all their feelings in this discussion of the book, its characters, and themes.  Also, Laura read a very anticipated book that really made her think a lot about internet presence and critiquing books/media.  Hannah was recently on vacation which allowed her more time to read some books she had started but not finished, and also reveals that she is an expert in a very specific topic....the movie Anastasia.

Discussion of Jade Legacy begins at 22m36s. 

CW for this section of the episode: death; racism; violence; guns; drug use; abuse; pregnancy; sexual abuse; blood; suicide; domestic abuse; medicine/medical issues; chronic illness; kidnapping; bombing
