From Mermaids to Urban Planning

Steph and Candice reconvene after vacations and catch up on the books they read. They both knocked off 4-6 books each! Though Steph's full length novels were slightly longer than Candice's fully illustrated graphic novels.

Steph drops a major bomb about Harry Potter, wait for it!
