In the first batch of episodes, we'll be reading through the Children of the Red King series by Jenny Nimmo, and for our first episode, we read through about half the first in the series "Midnight for Charlie Bone" up to the chapter Mind Games. This is an 18+ podcast and while the books are recommended for minors, our foul mouths and crass humor is NOT. If you'd like to follow along with us, Midnight for Charlie Bone is not a difficult read, and can probably be found at your local library. When was the last time you went to the library? If you have any reactions, comments or suggestions, feel free to drop us a line at onairbookfair@gmail.com The music you heard is Nostalgia By Brian Altano, from his multimedia project Weird Heat. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/onairbookfair/message
