This week, we're talking about the books that we can't stop reading. Along the way, we dissect ruts we don't want to escape, using time travel to finally crack our unachievable TBR piles, and Podcat's probable past. 

Live in or near Iowa? Come check out our new partnership with Beaverdale Books! You'll find a shelf curated by your favorite Broads, full of picks from past and present episodes, and you'll be supporting our favorite indie bookstore.

Broads and Books is the funny and feminist book podcast you need in your life!

Each episode, Amy and Erin choose a unique theme. Then we choose two fiction books, two other genre books (short story collections, memoir, non-fiction, true crime, poetry, etc.), and two pop culture picks based on that theme. We surprise each other with our picks, talk about why we like them, and give you unexpected recommendations for every reading taste.

Along the way, we share embarrassing stories, pitch amazing-slash-crackpot business ideas, implicate ourselves in future crimes, check in on our Podcats, and so much more.

Broads and Books is fresh, funny, thought-provoking, and basically the best time you'll have all week.
