RHH Ep 64 Allegiant I Tried, but Couldn't Finish
<p>In this episode of Reading Held Hostage Blue really tried, but for the first time on this podcast, and one of very few times in general, she could not finish this book. Allegiant by Veronica Roth was not able to be finished by Blue. We did get as much as we could into this episode only because it would have been really mentally uncomfortable to leave this episode out. Please enjoy the baby sounds. </p><br><p>Reach out to us about anything at <a href="mailto:ReadingHeldHostage@gmail.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ReadingHeldHostage@gmail.com</a> </p><br><p>Follow us on TikTok <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@readingheldhostage?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Readingheldhostage</a></p><br><p>Subscribe to us on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxjRX9IHjk65r4UV5UJD67Q" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube.com/readingheldhostage</a> </p><br><p>Follow us on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/ReadingHostage" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ReadingHostage</a> </p><br><p>Follow us on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/readingheldhostage/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@readingheldhostage</a></p><br><p>Check out your local county library to find more books, resources and activities than you would ever imagine for mostly free (some resources might cost a small amount).

RHH Ep 63 Insurgent Discount Macklemore Dies
<p>In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we are sorry. This is not the best quality nor best content. Blame Blue.
