Podcast: The Story Guide – Ep. 3 ‘Five Survive’

Hosts debate mystery novel

Heather Davis and Polly Greaves • March 14, 2025

Freshman Polly Greaves renovated this graphic for their new episode on Canva. The book they read this episode is “Five Survive” by Holly Jackson. “Me and Heather Davis have advisory together, therefore, while I was reading this book, I got to look over at her now and then, and ask, ‘why do you like this book so much?'” said Greaves. “And she just looked back at me like I was a complete weirdo and, you know, that just made my day.”

In this episode, freshmen Heather Davis and Polly Greaves converse about “Five Survive” by Holly Jackson. Jackson also wrote over ten other books, including “A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder,” now a Netflix series. Hosts will debate the pros and cons of the book, as well as introduce a wheel they will spin to determine the genre of the next book they’ll review and read.
