    About Us:

    Barely Bookish is a podcast about all classic literature and modern literature alike. These are books that you've likely been told you should've read by now or that you may have read in school. Rachel, along with a guest, reads a new-to-her book while discussing the plot, movies, retellings, and so much more.

    If you're a literature nerd or if you just enjoy a bookish podcast, welcome! If you're using this instead of reading the books, I get it and I don't judge. Find out more about the podcast over at https://barelybookish.com/.

  • 36 – The Great Gatsby #2 w/ Jessica

    Today we will be discussing chapters two and three of The Great Gatsby with Jessica! This book is kind of more chaotic than I thought it would be for a classic novel. But, I am really enjoying it and the deep dives we've been able to go on with this novel.

    What are you all thinking about all the characters in The Great Gatsby? I feel like the only character I actually like is Nick, to be honest.

  • 35 – The Great Gatsby #1 w/ Jessica

    Welcome to the Tom Buchanan roast fest. Today, we ended up covering only the first chapter of the Great Gatsby, but it's worth it because we get some good digs at Tom's expense. It's going to be a fun one, I promise.

  • 32 – Sense and Sensibility #6 w/ Allison

    So much is happening in this episode. We mostly focus on the Cleveland journey in this bit, which means we get Marianne getting super sick and almost dying and Willoughby showing up for some reason. You'll get to hear a lot more of my thoughts on Willoughby as well.

    Oh, the drama! So much is happening in this episode, we talk a lot about all the juicy gossip going around, Willoughby's new marriage, and how I feel about Fanny. It's a whole lot of fun and we're really getting to the juice of it.

  • 29 – Sense and Sensibility #3 w/ Allison

    So like... Edward, whose hair is in the ring? Things start getting juicy in this episode and Jane Austen is always ready to lead us astray on who we actually care about. It's going to be a fun one, I promise.

  • 28 – Sense and Sensibility #2 w/ Allison

    More Sense and Sensibility and discussing mannerisms from the 1800s with really no experience of that time frame. It's an interesting time, to be honest. If you know more than us about the time, let us know on Instagram! We want all that good insight.
