SEASON 9 EPISODE 1: CHOICE

It’s time to dive headfirst back into the World of Mages! We’re so looking forward (?) to getting our hearts ripped out by Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell for season 9. This is the second book in The Simon Snow Trilogy - we read the first, Carry On, for season 6. We’re picking up the same overarching theme of expectations. This week, we read the epilogue to chapter 6 through the theme of choice.

This episode was recorded on 15 January 2023.
