Our Moment: A Literary Podcast

In the season one finale of the Our Moment Podcast, Exquisite wraps up the conversation on Legendborn. She spends quite some time being sappy about the season coming to a close. There is also a discussion on Passive Characters and if Bree qualifies as one, well more like a rant. Exquisite ends the episode pimping her fancast for Bree Matthews. Thank you guys for joining us on this journey into Legendborn. Thank You Tracy Deonn for writing this fantastic book. Happy New Year! What book do you want to read together next?

In this episode Exquisite talks about the complicated history of legacies and inheritances. Inheritance is a theme that is grappled with throughout the entire novel and Exquisite finally needed to talk about it.
