Hi, friends! Intriguing upcoming book releases for the first half of 2025 are the topic of today's episode. The excitement is top notch, but the presentation is not. Apologies for the word salad and mispronunciations. Correct titles, authors and release dates are in the show notes. We've both been very busy and were quite tired when we recorded. We hope you can see past that to all the great books we brought to the show in this episode.
