186. The One Without Micaela

Our October wrap-up is finally here! We all read at least one book this month, so technically, we're still allowed to have a reading podcast, right?? Was it our lowest reading month yet? Yes. Are we concerned? Maybe…but it's fine, everything is fine. Hannah continues to single-handedly keep this podcast afloat and even came prepared with a surprise for Micaela and Kyleigh this month.  We hope you'll join us for our November book club pick, Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins. Here's hoping November is a little kinder to our TBRs! Currently Reading: Crescent City by Sarah J Maas The Words We Lost by Nicole Deese Once Again Always by Amanda Gayle

We finallyyyyy made it to the release of A Court of Splintered Harmony and are so excited to be able to talk about it. We all really loved this book, and although we have some critiques we are just happy to be back in the ACOTAR world! Currently Reading: The Witch by Freida McFadden Crescent City by Sarah J Maas The Words We Lost by Nicole Deese  

Micaela is back to discuss our October book club, Sense and Sensibility! She was supposed to discuss some highlights of her Italy trip but forgot so stay tuned for that at some point! We all really enjoyed the movie and Kyleigh and Hannah enjoyed the book as well.  Currently Reading: Once Again Always by Amanda Gayle Love Felt Like This by Julie Olivia The Words We Lost by Nicole Deese  

Well, the day we thought we'd never see is finally here… Micaela has left the podcast! For one whole week. Yes, we're being dramatic, but we love our girl! Kyleigh and Hannah hold down the fort in today's episode as they chat about everything from the latest additions to their TBRs to their very strong feelings about Ciera being voted off DWTS. Don't worry, Micaela will be back next week for our book club episode on Sense and Sensibility! Spoiler alert: she hasn't actually read the book (with our full permission, of course).   Currently Reading: A Court of Wings and Ruin by SJM A Court of Silver Flames by SJM Grady Lake by J.L. Hyde

WAY back in the day (Episode 11, to be exact!), we played Would You Rather with some bookish questions, and we decided it was time to bring it back for Episode 185! A huge thank-you to everyone who submitted questions! We had so much fun answering them, and clearly, you know us well because so many of your questions revolved around Alchemised and just how much we disliked it. Needless to say, your submissions gave us a good laugh! Be sure to grab a copy of Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen and join us for our October Book Club! Currently Reading: A Court of Wings and Ruin by SJM A Court of Silver Flames by SJM Love Felt Like This by Julie Olivia Where You Lead by Melissa Grace  

Well… we're back with another cursed book club read: Verity by Colleen Hoover. We would like to formally apologize to everyone who read this book and didn't like it, we're sorry we made you read this. For those of you who enjoyed it, listen with caution because we did not have great things to say about both the book and movie! We're crossing our fingers that next month's book club, Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen, will treat us a little better. Currently Reading: A Court of Wings and Ruin by SJM A Court of Silver Flames by SJM Love Felt Like This by Julie Olivia Where You Lead by Melissa Grace

This week we chat about all of the books we read in September! We also have some book news and chat about our thoughts on re-reading all of the SJM books so far. Spoiler alert, Micaela read more books than Kyleigh this month!   Currently Reading: A Court of Wings and Ruin by SJM A Court of Thorns and Roses by SJM Kingdom of Ash by SJM  

We have a random little episode for you today! We're chatting about some book news, answering a few questions from listeners, and, as per usual, going off on plenty of random tangents along the way. Basically, it's a little bit of everything. And because no episode would be complete without some kind of chaos, you also get to experience Micaela discovering a spider by her live on the pod.    Make sure to grab a copy of our September Book Club, Verity by Colleen Hoover. We'll be discussing the book AND movie in a couple weeks!   Currently Reading: Empire of Storms by SJM Tower of Dawn by SJM Kingdom of Ash by SJM Once, Again, Always by Amanda Gayle The Betrayal of Cora Wexford by Bethany Joy Lenz  

Fall reading season is officially here, and this year, we're making it competitive. We're drafting our ultimate fall TBRs, one book at a time—but once a book is picked, it's off the board. Who will snag the books everyone wants, and who will be left with the leftovers? Grab your favorite cozy drink and join us for bookish chaos, questionable strategy, and the ultimate fall reading showdown. May the best TBR win.   It's not too late to join us for our September Book Club, Verity by Colleen Hoover!   Currently Reading: The Night We Met by Abby Jimenez Tower of Dawn by SJM Empire of Storms by SJM The Betrayal of Cora Wexford by Bethany Joy Lenz Kingdom of Ash by SJM  

Today, we're hopping on the "You Couldn't Pay Us To…" trend! Are we a little late? Yes. Did that stop us? Absolutely not. In a shocking turn of events, we spend most of this episode talking about literally anything except the actual topic. We cover book news, the new Dancing with the Stars cast, and, of course, we had to spend some time talking about Lando Norris. It's not too late to join us for our September Book Club, Verity by Colleen Hoover!
