About SHE WELL READ
For well read baddies who love books, pop culture, and everything in between. Best friends Lana and Sam are figuring out how to fit reading into their busy lives—and they know they’re not alone. That’s why they created a book club on the go: a seasonal podcast with bite-sized episodes where listeners vote on what they read each season. In the off-season, bonus episodes feature conversations with authors, creators, and storytellers. Whether you read all the time, once in a while, or are just picking up your first book in years, this show celebrates all types of readers. Being well-read is more than just books, it’s a way of life.

Ooh, that's another good title, hydrangeas don't bleed. Yeah, that one is good. That one gotta eat! I can't remember what the other one was! I wonder if he'd ever told the police about that. Well, clearly not if there wasn't a file about it, and he never talked about talking to the police about it, so I doubt it. that's true and i and also probably because his you know his wife was going into labor he's more worried about that than he is like really like i feel like if he wasn't already kind of um distracted if you will or like had other things going on that maybe he might have digged in a little more at the time but it doesn't sound like he did That is so scary!
