For this episode, Carrie and Jake talk about 'Hole in the Middle' by Kendra Fortmeyer, which was released in hardcover and ebook editions today! As always, spoilers abound, so we recommend reading the book before listening. Also, note that there's a fair amount of swearing.
In the course of our discussion, we talk about metaphorical whatnots, fanfic, and banging, and our favorite gameshow, 'How Much The Worst Is Archie?', makes an unexpected return.
Our thanks to Kendra Fortmeyer, and to Monica White of Soho Teen, for getting us pre-release copies of the book.
In the next episode, we'll be discussing 'Seventeenth Summer' by Maureen Daly, which is sometimes referred to as the first young adult novel.
