In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the books we’re loving in 2025—one favorite per genre and plenty of opinions to go around 📖✨From romance to fantasy, literary fiction to nonfiction, we break down what’s been hitting for us as readers in our mid-twenties and why these stories matter. We also talk about how reading is inherently political, what that means in today’s world, and how books shape the way we see ourselves and each other.Plus, we share our highlights of the week, what we’re looking forward to next, and our current last, now, and next reads because our TBRs are always evolving.

And we want to hear from you! 💬
We’re opening the floor for a Q&A so send us your bookish questions, hot takes, recommendations, or anything you want us to discuss in a future episode. Whether you’re a lifelong reader or just getting back into books, this space is for you. Grab a cozy drink, settle in, and read along with us 📚💖
