Today we're taking a trip back to the early 2000's when every girl was "not like other girls" as we visit one of Aracely's high school favorites "Model Spy" by Shannon Greenland. Aracely comes to realize with disappointment that nostalgia may have had a lot to do with her feelings on this book. And Sonya is infuriated by everything in this story but admits she may not have the right perspective to enjoy it. Join us as we cringe and rage at our teenage selves!
