This week Mere and McCall are talking about what they're reading over Spring Break, a quick fly-over of what the Bachelor contestants are reading and what books they would list on a reality-tv profile, plus they talk about a few fiction and non-fiction titles to read that have no shortage of royal drama.

Here's some irony, McCall and Mere recorded a RomCom podcast and didn't actually talk about any rom com novels. But, they talked about a plethora of things from what makes a great romcom, to a relationship quiz, the common tropes that best describe their current relationships, and books that are not rom coms but are full of love! 

Plus, a heartfelt little things segment topped off with a little Oscars talk. Whew!

Please fill-out our communication survey here! 

Take the romance quiz & share your results with us!

For a full list of books discussed on this episode, please see the show notes!

You're in for a treat this week as Mere and McCall discuss 5 new mystery/thriller novels ranging from cozy mysteries to spooky thrillers! Not only are the ladies talking books but they are also uncovering who would make the best spy, detective, and murderer(!).

Complete with a retraction and 4 little things – we hope this episode is one of your favorite hours of listening this week!

If you love the episode, please share with a friend or right a review on iTunes. Enjoy :)

Here are the shownotes with all books discussed!
