The mystery thriller about teenage graffiti taggers ends in tragedy! But does our review of it?

Why things aren't ok and how John Green's responsible for a C in English!

It's episode 3, and the Booksword team are about to discuss a teen mystery! Part crime drama, part romance, how will everyone react to this UK-based detective novel?

This time (in a discussion that actually occured in February!) the Booksworders discuss The Pledge, the first in a dystopian trilogy by Kimberly Derting.
