Come hang out with us on Instagram to see all of our wrap up stats and books!
Heads up: this episode is definitely not super funny because Micaela ABANDONED the group and was traveling around Europe with her cutie little fam. But don’t worry, Hannah and Kyleigh actually talked about books, some reading goals, and even managed to sneak a little F1 content in at the end.
Come hang out with us on Instagram and SOON we’ll be able to say: check out our youtube channel! (But not yet, because it doesn’t exist)

We finally made it to our Kingdom of Ash episode, and to the end of the Throne of Glass series! We know we say it all the time, but we truly cannot believe how fast it is going.

Thank you for sticking with us thus far - only three more books to go!
BREAKING NEWS!!! This is not our Kingdom of Ash episode as we had previously planned but instead we have our October wrap up for you all! We will have our KOA epsiode ready next week so make sure to check back then!
We collectively read 17 books which is low for us but overall it was still a good reading month. Kyleigh read her all time favorite memoir, Micaela is staying in the game with our book club books, and Hannah might be in her nonfiction era.

We are very excited (intrigued?) to see what all of the hype is about and read Bride by Ali Hazelwood with you in March!

Join us for a spoiler free episode this week! We're playing a fun little game where we answer which character from the SJM or Harry Potter Universe would best fit the question. Which caracter would max out their credit card? Who is likely the end up in jail after a night out? What meal would you make if you were cooking for Rhysand and Draco Malfoy? Admittedly, our answers were more of a reflection of our favorite Slytherin characters that you get to know the more Dramione fanfics you read, so we used this as another opportunity to remind you that it is time to jump on the train if you haven't yet.
Reminder: Next week we’re talking about our November book club pick, The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston. There is still time to read and join us in our discussion next week!

On this week’s episode we’ll be talking about the books we’ve read in June and also have our first ever guest on the podcast, Jenna! She is Micaela’s best friend from college, an avid fantasy reader, and an all around hilarious human being. During this episode we’ll share our June reads and ratings (this month was much better than May) and what we’re looking forward to reading next. Recording with Jenna was a blast: we laugh, we roast each other, and we get a little loud.
We apologize that the audio levels may be a little off this week - it's our first time recording with four people, so we're learning! We appreciate your understanding.

Join us for our first monthly wrap up episode! We’ll be going through all of the books we read during the month of May by rating and sharing what we loved and didn’t love so much. It was the weirdest reading month for Kyleigh, who had TWO 1-star ratings, Micaela only read four books, which is not the norm for her & Hannah had a handful of 5-star reads because she is better at picking books than Kyleigh is, clearly.
P.S. Apologies if you hear a wild Murphy barking in the background here and there – he just wanted to say hi!

WARNING: This episode contains spoilers for A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie cole beginning at time stamp 5:57 and ending at time stamp 18:30.
Join us for this week’s episode where we will be discussing the saddest book any of us have ever read, A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie Cole; the book that made us all ugly cry from Chapter 3 until the end of the book. We talk about some of our favorite moments, like Rune and Poppy’s sweet relationship that starts at an early age, the scenes that made us cry the hardest and how this book was just as heartwarming as it is depressing.
Even though we each admit to being in a real bad reading slump during this episode, here are all of the books that we mention throughout the episode trying to get out of said slump:

Join us for this episode where we’ll be talking about the book that has been rising in popularity in recent months and the title that we can never get right: The Serpent and the Wings of Night, the book that everyone has been comparing to ACOTAR. It’s the Hunger Games meets Triwizard tournament with Damon and Stefan Salvatore, (any Vampire Diaries fans here?) We discuss what we liked about it, what we didn’t love so much and our theories for the future duologies.
