This week your hosts return from the Swiss mountains and embark on a new journey with a young fella who's chasing a bunch of thieves through the old Wild West. Rebecca struggles to describe a deep and mysterious affection for land that is depicted so well in this book. Holly reverts to believing in the common notion that "things just ain't as simple as they used to be" when it comes to love. Join us as we discuss the author and time period of Tucker, debate the legitimacy of coming-to-age stories, and delve into the psychological effects of an obsession.

Tolkien three weeks from now. So saddle up and get hankerin' for some real good stuff coming your way!
