Episode 019: The Leaving by Tara Altebrando

In this episode we salvage an old discussion of The Leaving by Tara Altebrando. (Don't worry, it sounds totally natural—and theme appropriate— when Kim and Molly suddenly disappear during our Random Comments from the Internet segment, are replaced by Katie, and then suddenly reappear for Read-a-likes. Don't worry; they were not kidnapped, and their memories were not erased by morally flexible scientists.)

Kim suggests We Were Liars by E. Lockhart.

Nate suggests The Dead Zone by Stephen King. (Then after the end credits roll, Nate also suggests the film I Know What You Did Last Summer, the actor Ryan Phillipe, and the alternative rock band Bush.)

Nathan suggests Bone Gap by Laura Ruby.

Lindsey suggests Emmy and Oliver by Laura Benway and Picture Me Gone by Meg Rosoff.

Cash Money suggests the television program The Leftovers.

Molly suggests The Cellar by Natasha Preston and The Bunker Diaries by Kevin Brooks.

We've included a clip of LilyCReads' review of The Leaving in our Random Comments from the Internet segment (hope that's cool, Lily). Check out  her full review here.
