Chapter 70: Under the Same Stars by Libba Bray
This week we discuss a story about resistance. Bray's novel includes three timelines and three character duos, each trying to make sense of the political environments they're living in. We discuss how YA often tackles hard topics, how strange it is to read about the pandemic, the power of first love, the themes of not being complicit and remaining hopeful, and how deeply relevant this book is to the current state of our country. In our catch up, Kaitlin recaps her trip to Charleston, Steph educates us on septic testing, and Molly shares about her vacation to Mexico. In what we're reading this week, Steph details a Tessa Bailey book set in Boston, Kaitlin starts a rugby romance, and Molly takes life advice from Matthew McConaughey's memoir.
