Death by a Thousand Books

Sarah Adams never lets me down.🩵 This book had all of my favorite things: second chance romance, enemies to lovers, fake dating, dual pov, spice, smut it's all there. It’s only lacking for me in very small elements of the book that as a reader, just dont work for me and I’ll get more into that with the spoilers. When I'm reading a book, I go into my own little world and I sometimes find it so difficult to separate book from real life. If you love Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, and are so smitten by their whirlwind romance, READ THIS BOOK. You won’t be disappointed. 🏈💍

The book that got me out of a reading slump💚 This is a debut novel for Grace Reilly and there will be a total of four books in her “Beyond the Play” series; all of which follow different sports and siblings of the Callahan family (all of which will be getting their own episodes as they come out). First Down is a college, fake dating romance that tells the story of James and Bex. They came together naturally as “friends” then quickly as a fake couple in a mutual arrangement to get Bex’s ex off her back and for superstar QB, James, to get the help he needs to pass his writing class. It’s a book that reels you in from the very beginning and keeps you hooked until the end.

If you can’t handle the spice, then stay away from this episode because Grace Reilly is a SPICE. AUTHOR. Definitely a PG-13 rated book but I’ll tone it down for the younger audience on this podcast. If you know anything about me, I love smut. I’ll read it all damn day long. This book reminded me too much of one of my favorite vault tracks from Speak Now (Taylor’s Version). We all remember hearing that one, sultry lyric for the first time with our jaws dropped; at this point in her career, we had no idea Taylor had a spicy side and eleven years later, she is spilling the tea. This episode is a full book review (with and without spoilers, you know the drill) plus a lyrical AND music video break down of “I Can See You” from the vault. 👀

Now entering the Walter boy era… Giddy up🤠 This book is a perfect read for a younger audience, especially those who loved reading the Summer I Turned Pretty! Ali Novak was only 15 herself when originally published it on Wattpad. Jackie Howard loses her family in a tragic accident and has to uproot her perfect little New York life to move to Silver Falls, Colorado and live with (you guessed it) the Walter boys. On one hand, Walter Boys is a quick, fun read that is just fluffy. It’s a sweet story and I enjoyed it the same way I enjoy oreos – it's junkfood, but you can’t just read one page. For some reason you keep coming back for more. And somehow, despite its many flaws, I still loved reading it when I was in high school, and I think many teens will like it, too.

My Life with the Walters boys premiered as a Netflix series in December of 2023, and has been officially renewed for a second season! This episode talks about the book, the show, the differences between both and highlights a very nostalgic song from the Fearless era because let’s face it: we all know what it felt like to be “Fifteen” 💛

We’re about to go on a little adventure together & that adventure is going to span three and half hours of epic concert history all thrown into one episode, and it’s gonna be called “The Eras Tour Film” - see you there.😚 The Eras Tour Movie is love a letter to fans across the entire world. It captures her evolution as an artist, allows fans to relive the nostalgia of their favorite eras, and the production is nothing short of brilliant. It really shows how far Taylor has come in her career; from starting out as a sixteen year old on stage for 100 people, to sold out football stadiums, you've got to have respect for the woman, even if her music isn't your cup of tea. 

The true magic of this movie lies in the relationship that Taylor Swift has created with her fans. One of the most heartwarming aspects of the Eras Tour itself is the swiftie-made tradition of trading “friendship bracelets”. Inspired by the  song featured in the episode: “So make the friendship bracelets, Take the moment and taste it..." from Midnight’s track 5 song "You're On Your Own, Kid." It’s more than just a trend or an inside joke, it’s a true testament to what it feels like to be a fan (and most importantly, the love story behind Taylor & Travis).♥️ So I chose this song and this episode to share my own story of how I became a full-time swiftie and to try to answer the question that all the haters seem to be asking: what’s the hype? Everyone has a story & I would love to hear yours!! Share your experience with me in this episode as we go through the eras together & eras together & celebrate the Eras Tour Movie.🎥🎬

Leave it to @taylorswift to make an era out of all of her other eras, as if they weren’t already iconic enough. 🦋🌞☔️🎩🗽🚓🌈🌲🥂🦸🏼‍♀️ We want to give a shoutout to our favorite Anti-Hero for her 9 VMA awards this year (including Video of the Year) by putting out our first ever 2 part episode!! 🤯 I mean it was pretty obvious considering we are covering all 10 albums in her discography, a three-hour concert production, the Eras Tour MOVIE, our top 5 albums & top 3 songs of all time.🎥🎶 And the worst part is: it could’ve been longer. 😆

While we have dedicated an episode to every album individually, the concept of the “Eras era” has broken records on its own. Our conversation for this episode is structured like the Eras Tour itself, and we are diving into every detail of the production, the set list, the outfits, you name it. The first part (part 1) is concert heavy featuring the Lover through Folklore sets while part 2 wraps up 1989 & Midnights then jumps into our final thoughts, our top 5 eras and our top 3 songs of all time. From listening to any of the eras episodes so far, you know that we pick a top 5 from each album and share our lists blindly with each other. It’s become such a fun aspect for us to talk about so we added it to this episode in its own way. If you’re curious about us as cohosts on this podcast, it’s pretty wild that both our top 3 song choice (and albums) very much define us as humans & swifties. We hope you learn a little bit more about us after listening.

It feels like the perfect night… to drop the Red era.🤭 OUT NOW!❤️

In 2012, Taylor Swift was 22 and turning into a pop icon of our generation. Her fourth studio album RED had it’s moment 11 years ago, and it had its moment again in 2021 when it was rereleased as (Taylor’s Version). When explaining the re-record of this album , Taylor Swift says: “I look back on RED as my true breakup album. Every other album has flickers of different things. But this was an album that I wrote specifically about pure, absolute, to the core heartbreak.” And that is exactly how we are going to dive into this era.

In this episode, we of course have to talk about the original era & track list, but that doesn’t even scratch the surface of how much of an impact this album has had in present day. We now have the All Too Well (TMV) & Short Film to discuss, along with our top 5 songs including the tracks (from the vault). Sadie Sink & Dylan O’Brien. 🎬 The eras tour rain show.🌧️ Our own personal stories of heartbreak.❤️‍🩹 Message in a Bottle.🍾  State of Grace.💃🏼 All some of our favorite things associated with this era and so much more!! We are The Lucky Ones for being able to talk about this album & era in its entirety. It dives into emotions that we know All Too Well. It brings back so many memories that feel like The Very First night these songs were released. We hope you will Stay, Stay Stay for this entire episode (and it is a lengthy one)(sorry we are done with the puns now too). As always, thank you for listening!🥰

Grab your purple glitter gel pens, swifties 💜🏰🎆☔️🦸🏻‍♂️✨ We’re here to tell you everything you need to know about the Speak Now era🫶🏻

From being released in 2010 to being stolen from the vault and saved in 2023 (shoutout Taylor Lautner & Joey King!!!) Speak Now has been through an incredible journey. It’s the album that raised most of us swifties and got us through our first heartbreaks🥹 The long awaited (Taylor’s Version) was nothing short of perfection - the eras tour announcement, the vault tracks, the music videos. ALL topics of discussion in this episode!

This episode is a crash course in everything John Mayer, Taylor Lautner & Joe Jonas. We’re breaking down every easter egg we’ve gotten for this re-release, what makes this era so iconic, ranking our favorite songs from the original album, and of course our favorite tracks (from the vault). This episode is ✨sparklin✨ and we hope you have as much fun listening to it as we did making it. 🦄

“It is the best day ever! So was yesterday, and so is tomorrow, and every day from now until forever!” That is becauseee we’re doing a crossover episode that is completely unmatched by any other! The fact that The Man isn’t on the Barbie soundtrack is honestly a crime. This song and movie represent each other perfectly in the world of double standards for women in society. To set the record straight: we aren’t going to drill feminism into your brain in this episode. 

Barbie is the film of the summer, hands down - something about it is so nostalgic & strategic at the same time. It puts a new twist on some of our favorite childhood memories growing up with Barbie (and Polly Pockets). We had so much fun talking about everything associated with this movie! Seeing the characters in the film and the outfits of the press tour mirror actual dolls from decades ago makes us believe that Greta Gerwik is actually a mastermind. We want to talk about some of the laugh-out-loud moments, our thoughts on casting and the overall production of the film. We wanted to pair it with the Lover era & The Man because they share a similar message. In the second half of this episode, we attempt to breakdown all of the easter eggs hidden in The Man music video, (and there are so much more than you realize) including the iconic graffiti wall that is tied to the order of Taylor Swift’s rerecording. It wouldn’t be a complete episode if we didn’t talk about Karma the missing album… So much information packed into one 30-minute episode, we hope you enjoy it! #noscootersallowed 

"A man does something, it's 'strategic'; a woman does the same thing, it's 'calculated.' A man is allowed to 'react'; a woman can only 'over-react.'" - Taylor Swift

If you need proof that Jenny Han & Taylor Swift are in kahoots with each other, this episode will only break the surface. If you have been with us for a while, you know that we live for Jenny Han & The Summer I Turned Pretty on this podcast; but, we are taking these episodes back to our PK & LJ era. To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is the story of Lara Jean, who has never openly admitted her crushes, but instead wrote each boy a letter about how she felt, sealed it, and hid it in a box under her bed. These books are a trilogy set that were turned into Netflix movies in 2018 (yes we will be covering all 3 on this podcast). It’s a fun, light hearted, contemporary romance but also includes side plots of family and loved ones. It’s also an amazing fake dating read for all of our Jenny Han girlies.  

We added this book to the Lover era so we could talk about the parallels of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before & All of the Girls You Loved Before. While we are so incredibly happy that Lover was the first album to be fully owned by Taylor Swift, but we would die for the Lover (from the vault) tracks. We got a glimpse into what these tracks would be like with the Lover “more chapter.” So in the second half of this episode, we want to talk about one of our favorites from this EP and how it’s a song we dedicate to Laura Jean & Peter Kavisnky. We hope you love it!
