HEY YALL! Amber and Colby are back for a FULL BOOK REVIEW and interesting conversation about 3 foster girls who re-live their past when a dead body pops up in their childhood home. 

In this week’s episode, we’re diving deep into Darling Girls by Sally Hepworth, and y’all, this one took us on a ride. We’re breaking down everything: the twisted foster mom, the buried body, the trauma bonding, and the final reveal that had us both screaming. Was Miss Fairchild always evil? Is this the darkest Hepworth twist yet? And why did we all fall for her lies in the first place? Grab your mic and your iced coffee, because we’re unpacking it ALL. Spoilers ahead… obviously.
