Takoma Reads

'We the Animals' by Justin Torres

It’s Takoma Reads, the podcast where the once and current staff of the Takoma Park Library get together and chat about books. For this episode, we read We the Animals by Justin Torres. SPOILER ALERT: We talk about the whole book, so if you would prefer to read the story without knowing how it ends, you may want to listen to this after you read it.
