The holidays are right around the corner and if you’re looking for a book you’ll instantly love… well, I bet you won’t fall in love as fast as the characters in this book! Join me and Ayman over at @aymansbooks on TikTok as we discuss the things we instantly loved, as well as the things we didn’t love so much, about Jacquelyn Middleton’s book The Certainty of Chance! 

No, but seriously... why are book men always so perfect? If you loved Schitt's Creek on Netflix, especially Alexis Rose, and are looking for your next read, then look no further than It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey! A cute, funny, and SPICY summer read (or fall read if you're like me and are out of season) that you will absolutely love! Listen to me and Nicole of booksovertherapy on TikTok as we party it up like Piper!

2021 is coming to an end! I don't know how that happened, or where the time went, but it is without a doubt true nonetheless. It's time to hunker down and cram in as many last-minute reads as possible before this year comes to a close, but before that, listen to me and Jules of bookish_jules on Instagram talk about our 2021 favorites, our not-so-favorites, and all things bookish in this episode of Bookishly Lit!

This is a serious request for Guncle applications. Restrictions do apply and are as follows: you must be exactly like Patrick in The Guncle by Steven Rowley, you must provide me with wise yet humorous guncle rules, and you have to agree to hold this position indefinitely. Listen to me and Katie from @katieneedsabiggerbookshelf on Instagram discuss everything we loved about The Guncle!

We shouldn't want the people we love to hate us, and we shouldn't want to hate the people we love, but for some reason when that's the scenario in books we all love it? I don't know, it doesn't make sense to me but also it does. I have no desire to explain that conundrum so give this episode a listen to hear what Mimi of mimi.reads.fiction on Instagram and I have to say about The Hating Game by Sally Thorne!

I suppose if it’s the only way to provide for yourself and make a living I get it… but a bridge?!? Join me and the real-life Lara, Ashley of @booksaremythirdplace, as we talk about everything in The Bridge Kingdom except for the bridge! You might want a second or third drink because this week’s trigger word has us drinking!

Whether you think she did it or not, I think we can all agree that Verity by Colleen Hoover was WILD! Join me and Kenzie as we try our hand at being detectives, albeit tipsy detectives, but detectives nonetheless, and our futile attempts to solve the mysteries that are Verity! @kenzies.books

And I mean that in the politest way possible! Whether it's tequila, whiskey, beer, bourbon, vodka... you name it, women had a part in it's making and success. Join me and author Mallory O'Meara as we talk about all things boozy and female in her book Girly Drinks. No matter what you're drinking, you don't want to miss this!

Welcome to the stage, or microphone I suppose, Bookishly Lit’s first ever author! *Queue the confetti* Author Ana Huang (@authoranahuang) joins me in this episode to talk about her books, Twisted Love and Twisted Games- the first two books in her Twisted series. If you’re a fan of the “brother’s best friend” or the “I shouldn’t love him but I do” tropes then give these books a read-through ASAP!
