There's nothing as horrible as being abducted and then lied to your whole life by the people who love you... except reading about it. This week, Donny and Chelsea read the tedious fan favorite "The Face On the Milk Carton" by Caroline B. Cooney and spend that time wishing someone would chloroform them and take them away so they can stop reading. Before you attack - Donny remembered loving this book as a child, but it's not the dramatic thriller you remember. Besides spending the hour saying how miserable they are, the duo also discuss out of the box child names, sick day habits, the 90s obsession of milk and missing white girls, and most importantly - the vaginal health of the Laguna Beach cast.

This week Danielle concludes the Janie series with the 2013 Caroline B. Cooney novel Janie Face to Face. Janie is headed off to college and wants to use that as an opportunity to assert her independence from her family. She does this by only going back to stay with her family every weekend. Also, Janie's Connecticut parents are now in assisted living since her father is not doing well after the stroke he had in the last book and they somehow lost all their vast wealth. Janie decides that's a good enough reason to start distancing herself from them. At the same time, we're introduced to Hannah and are gifted little vignettes that tell the story of how she kidnapped Janie. This sections are not kind to Hannah, and also amazingly bonkers. Meanwhile, at school, Janie meats a new boy, Mike Hastings, who quickly reveals himself to be an absolute creeper. However, Janie decides that's all fine until she learns that Mike has been working with a supposed true crime writers to investigate her life for his latest book. In what might be her only good decision in this book, she dumps his butt. However, the rest of her family is still receiving solicitations from the writer, and some of them seem far more willing to talk than Janie is. In another disturbing trend, Stephen and Janie both reunite with their terrible exes, Kathleen and Reeve respectively. In a spur-of-the-moment decision at Janie's departure from a visit, Reeve proposes by shouting his request across the airport (romantic) and Janie actually says yes. Wild. Anyway, it soon becomes clear that the person behind the book, and the investigation, into Janie's life is not what he seems to be, and the revelation has the potential to upend Janie's life forever (but it definitely won't).

This week Danielle is back to finish (kind of) the Janie series with the 2000 Caroline B. Cooney book What Janie Found. Janie's back and more teen than ever! While rifling through her father's office (he had a heart attack/stroke, don't worry about it) she comes across a folder labeled "HJ" and immediately concludes it has something to do with Hannah. Also, Reeve is back in her life, trying just so hard to get back into her good graces, which, for some reason, she is allowing him to do. Reeve notices Janie looking at the folder but wisely decides not to pry this time since he's still on thin ice. Janie discovers a checkbook in the folder and deduces that her father (the Connecticut one) has been sending money to his estranged daughter, and Janie is not on board with this. Meanwhile, in Colorado, Stephen is dating a girl named Kathleen who's father just happens to have been in the FBI, and they are both super interested in the Janie kidnapping story, to a degree that is problematic. They grill Stephen about the story over dinner and this is in no way foreshadowing for how terrible they are. Janie, meanwhile, discovers that the checks her father was writing are being sent to, of all places, Colorado, so she concocts a plan to go there on the pretense of visiting Stephen, but with the intention of tracking down Hannah to get some answers. This is obviously a terrible plan, so of course her brother Brian and freaking Reeve come along. Unrelated, but Janie is also a bridesmaid in Reeve's sister's, Lizzie the Lawyer's, wedding for reasons that are dumb. Anyway, in Colorado, Janie waffles on whether to leave a note for Hannah in the PO box, and in the meantime Kathleen, encouraged by her father, grills Janie about her experience as a "kidnapette", and that term tells you all you really need to know about Kathleen and her father as people. The question remains: Will Janie confront Hannah and finally get the therapy she so desperately needs? All we can say is that there's actually a fifth book, surprise!

This week Danielle dips back into the Janie well with the 1996 Caroline B. Cooney novel The Voice on the Radio. Taking place a few months after the previous, Janie's boyfriend Reeve is off to college in Boston, and Sam is still irked at not getting the prom scene that was teased. While Reeve is enjoying the college life and his new job at the college radio station, Janie is back home leafing through wedding magazines and fantasizing about their future. This is all totally normal teen stuff and not at all foreshadowing. One night, Reeve gets his big break and is given the chance to DJ on the mic. Did anyone bother to help Reeve come up with a plan for this show? Apparently not, as he's shoved in front of the mic and immediately panics. So Reeve does what any normal person would, he spills the beans on Janie's very traumatic and private kidnapping history, in what Sam declares is the progenitor of all true crime podcasts. This horrific betrayal of trust goes over extremely well with the radio audience and Reeve has the new hit show on campus. In the meantime, Janie is dealing with her school wanting to dedicate a page to her kidnapping story, something she is not on-board with since she feels it's far too private (hear that, Reeve, ya jerk?!). Despite momentary feelings of unease, Reeve is all-in on trading Janie's story and trust for college radio fame, and even manages to dodge a few close calls where Janie almost uncovers it all. Alas, we all know Janie will eventually find the truth and have to deal with that betrayal, and then Reeve will have to deal with his greatest challenge yet: Exercising even a minuscule amount of willpower. Whatever happens between Janie and Reeve, there's one thing we can all sure of: This book will for sure end on a cliffhanger. Enjoy!

Listen in as Cromaine Librarians Erik, Heather, and Kelsey discuss 90s literary sensation The Face on the Milk Carton by Caroline B. Cooney.

It's been nearly four years since our episode about The Face on the Milk Carton… but we're finally ready to jump into the next chapter of Janie Johnson's story! Episode 229 focuses on the second book in Caroline B. Cooney's beloved series, Whatever Happened to Janie? Conversation topics range from sibling rivalry and victim blaming to the evolution of our collective language around trauma and depictions of sex work.Caitlin Barasch is the author of A Novel Obsession. Follow her on Instagram (@soembarasched) and Twitter (@CaitlinBarasch).

This week Danielle brings Sam back to the 90s with the 1990 Caroline B. Cooney novel The Face on the Milk Carton. Fifteen-year-old Janie Johnson is your average lactose-intolerant teen who just wants to fit in and kiss the cute boy next door. However, one day at school she sees a picture of a missing three-year-old child on a milk carton and is immediately convinced it's probably her from twelve years ago. This immediately sends Janie spiraling into an existential crisis. Amazingly, Janie starts to have flashbacks to memories of her three-year-old life, improbable as it sounds for her to have one, much less just so freaking many memories from when she was three or younger. Janie begins to question if her parents are really her parents, but instead of asking them outright anything about it, or contacting the hotline from the milk carton for clarification, Janie stalks the family of the missing girl by coercing her kinda-boyfriend into driving her to New Jersey only to chicken out before actually knocking on the door. Finally, Janie confronts her parents who tell her a story about how her mother, their daughter, ran off to join a cult and then showed up one day to dump baby Janie on them, which they raised as their own. Amazingly, the story doesn't just end there with everyone getting a lot of therapy. No spoilers, but Sam is very upset by the "twist" that everyone just accepts and is downright angry by the end book, so you know this is going to be a good one!

I read a lot of books, so many of my students in the past have been the same way. If they had five minutes to spare, they would open a book and immerse themselves in the story. One of the good things about books is the variety of characters that we meet. If we are paying attention, we will get a lot from knowing each person in every book.I am reading a book right now called, “The Face on the Milk Carton.” It's the first in a series by Caroline B. Cooney. The central charter is 15 year old Janie Johnson, but one of the supporting characters caught my eye and I want to talk about him. His name is Reeve. He's a couple years older than Janie, lives next door, and has always been overshadowed by his older sisters and brother. He has made a career out of not doing homework and getting mediocre grades. All of a sudden, Reeve pops up on the Honor Roll first term of his Senior Year, surprising all his classmates.Is it possible to flip a switch in your brain and to go from being one type of person to being another literally overnight? The answer is yes. I have seen it in my life, and I have experienced it myself. It requires two things, One, you have to commit to a new image of yourself, and two, you need to take the transition one day at a time. Successful diets are based on this formula. Kicking drug or alcohol habits uses this concept. Becoming a better student or a more responsible citizen is not as tough as giving up drugs, but the idea is the same---View yourself differently and then commit to being the new you for just one day.Books offer insights into other people, but really they open the door onto whom we can be ourselves. Be open to how you can change for the better. It's your choice.

Although Hulu punked Kelly & Molly by dropping the first 3 eps of The Handmaid's Tale at once, Kelly & Molly aren't even mad. Well, Molly is mad about this episode's hotly contested Simple Minds/Breakfast Club music cue, but Kelly thinks it's brilliant. They are also mad about sapiosexuals, and they wonder if Goop survived the Gilead coup, explain the Red All Over drinking game, parse out why Gilead hates Catholics, debate the color of the Wives' dresses, try to get to 5k followers on Twitter, gush about the collected works of Caroline B. Cooney, laugh because Rory's got jokes, wonder whether the Redheads are #baggirls or #boxgirls, and celebrate the return of Sardonic Margaret Atwood. Please continue to subscribe, rate & review, under His eye! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Welcome to this startling tale of a girl who just wants love, but instead finds success as a super popular milk carton model. And there's a ninja machete fight! Awesome read!
