Welcome to this months #BuddyRead episode. What's a Buddy Read? Co-host Classy and I select a title that we'll either read, listen to, or a combination of both.

We talk about this book during a live chat at in the Shelf Addiction Official Facebook group, so you'll want to join us there!
In this episode, we're discussing The Chill, by Scott Carson. Both Classy and I listened to the audiobook version.
