"The Owl Service" by Alan Garner

Love YA Like Crazy

For this episode, Carrie and Jake discuss The Owl Service by Alan Garner. Along the way, Jake sings a tribute to a listener named RobertTheBruceWayne, Carrie reveals whether she would rather be an owl or flowers, and we struggle with Welsh names (sorry).

In the next episode, we'll be discussing American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang.
