 Welcome back to Episode 9 of the books boys podcast! We tried so hard to keep it concise this time as we had alot of books to cover! TheDean! & PJ have both done alot of reading this month, and have also both taken the time to read something for mental wellbeing and mindfulness.

 Then the fantastic author Leah Holbrook Sackett (leaholbrooksackett.com) calls in to chat about her novella Raising St. Elisabeth, and her short stories.
