Ep 117 Bingo - A book outside your comfort zone

About this episode

Chell and Annette explore books outside their comfort zones, discussing their shocking and unsettling reads.

This week on Two Crones and a Book , we dust off our bingo cards and dive headfirst into the square that made us both sweat a little: Read Something Out of Your Comfort Zone . Chell wandered into the wild world of small‑town secrets and menopausal mayhem with A Hot Flash of Homicide by Dawn Dugle and let’s just say the title does not exaggerate. Meanwhile, Annette took a hard left turn into the unsettling, unforgettable, and deeply disturbing with Let’s Go Play at the Adams by Mendal W. Johnson. Join us as we unpack what shocked us, what surprised us and what we’ll never emotionally recover from. Expect cackles, side‑eye and the occasional existential crisis. SPOILERS, MATURE THEMES AND LANGUAGE SOME LISTENERS MAYFIND OFFENSIVE.
