Recently I discovered that McKay's, our favorite second-hand bookstore, has been offering themed grab bags of books to help people stay on top of their reading during this season.

So, of course, I bought one—and it was 100% YA fiction.

But what kind of YA fiction was it? You'll find out as Scarlet, Dave and I discuss:

When we can record in person again
Which books from our bag seem like they're worth reading
If our McKay's bag accurately reflects Nicholas Cage's career choices
Dave prepping for the apocalypse
The hot mess of Aaron's (abandoned) quaranbeard
Our reflections on talking about Canada for 30 minutes last week
How James Patterson could possibly write as much as he does (completely out of jealousy)
