I watched it on USA. I even recorded it on VHS for my best friend who didn't have cable at the time. I think I was 13 or 14? I was so excited to find it in DVD a couple years ago at my local Disc Replay.
where is Lindsay?
"the Holy spirit is like joie de vivre" Dean Crepes You've Done It Again
Love the books coming up! Can i recommend "Holes" its kinda fantasy-like but i remember reading it as a kid, was a fast read nd one of those "book better than the movie" type. thanks girls
I'll say it. the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
😂🤣😂 no joke, I was literally going to text my ex today to tell him about this podcast because he's a YA fiction writer. Now I must send him this episode! #textyourex
I can't believe I read these books when I was like 13!
Love this episode! Huge Buffy fan here, and firmly on the Xander hate train, though I had the friend who crushed on him hard. I was more Angel... Then Spike... Then a bit Into Giles..... Had to scream with the "girls loving animals" bit. Because Tobias and Thakery were 😍 to young adult me. And this movie, in general, was probably one of the oldest things that actually made me care about romance. Though, have to agree, WORST ENDING!
Love this podcast. If you like YA and listening to random tangents from two hysterical ladies then this podcast is for you! Keep it creepy!
Everyone on The View sucks, not just Megan McCain. I love this podcast but they seem kinda brainwashed politically.
really good conversation at the end of this one!
This is a great podcast! I love the episodes I've listened to so far. Kelly and Lindsay have good chemistry and they are funny as well. They talk about the books, of course, but go off into little "off topic" stories about random things as they are reminded of something, at least in the episodes I've listened to. I for one, like the little detours. Off topic time isn't long and usually hilarious. Not to sound creepy, but they sound like they could be your friend and in your home chatting about books and sometimes a random tampon story, or a story about a girl who licks her plate in restaurants. (You'd have to tune into their podcast to understand the references!)
Love love love I am prime Lois Duncan fan. so THANK YOU. I must have read Stranger With My Face 10 times...😁
I am so glad this podcast exists!
omg thank you so much for doing this book
Love this podcast!
Love this podcast, it takes me back to the 90s and makes me feel 13 again
until I found this podcast I thought these books I read as a preteen were just weird dreams. thanks!
