Jessica is back! And today we are discussing our season 2 superlatives (best Belly/Conrad scene, saddest scene, best Jelly moment, and more!). We also discussed a bunch of our theories for what we think might happen in season 3! I also shared some content I'm loving during the show's break. 

BEWARE :) This episode contains lots of spoilers for book 3!
