Episode 93: I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You (Gallagher Girls #1)

I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You (Gallagher Girls #1)

Alli experiences a serious case of retroactive FOMO on Episode 93, thanks to a discussion about the first book in Ally Carter’s Gallagher Girls series, I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You. Along with guest Phoebe Wright, she discusses the many, many cool aspects of the Gallagher Academy, considers how the series may have planted some early feminist seeds, ponders alternate endings, and swoons over the magical first moment of being fully “seen” as an insecure teen. Oh, and there’s talk of Harry Potter and Gilmore Girls!

Phoebe is a NYC-based actor and reader and the voice behind Read & Wright. Follow her on Instagram (@readandwright) and Twitter (@readandwright2) and check out her book podcast Read It or List It.
