Lauren Bolger @renbolger.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Enjoying the new Keith Rosson so far. Had me at teen kid putting a goofy old man voice. These are the kinds of quirky character building gems that make me happy 💜 Also the kid has the same name as my daughter who is similar in age. In a Horror book. Soo we’ll see how that one goes lol 020
