After a little too much scrolling (and a lot of tempting recommendations), Reggie, Kennedy, and Mikayla are sharing the latest books they’ve added to their TBRs straight from Goodreads.

From new releases to backlist gems they somehow missed, they break down what caught their attention, why they couldn’t resist hitting “Want to Read,” and whether these picks will actually make it to the top of the pile. 

If your TBR is already out of control… consider this your official warning.

In this delightfully chaotic episode, the trio bravely enters the battlefield of Goodreads: the one-star review section. Armed with strong opinions and absolutely no emotional preparation, they read the most unhinged, dramatic, and deeply personal attacks on their favorite books.

In this episode, nothing is safe. The gals dramatically reenact the harshest reviews, spiral over the audacity, and attempt to defend their beloved characters as if they personally know them (because, emotionally, they do).

Between gasps, cackling laughter, and mock outrage, they unpack the wildest takes the internet has to offer and reflect on the beautifully subjective chaos of reading. It’s petty. It’s passionate. It’s three best friends slightly losing their minds over strangers’ opinions.

Five stars for entertainment. One star for emotional stability.

The girls are deep in their Windy City era and they’re not coming out anytime soon. In this episode, the trio dives headfirst into Liz Tomforde’s Windy City series, breaking down every book, every man, and every moment that had them crying and squealing. From star ratings and swoon-worthy moments to scenes that didn’t quite hit, nothing is off-limits.

They debate their favorite book from the series as well as their favorite FMCs and MMCs, defend their book boyfriends with their lives, and get a little (okay, very) passionate about which characters deserve the crown. Plus, they’re putting their casting director hats on with dream fan casts for each character.

Expect hot takes, unhinged fangirling, and lots of love for the Windy City men who set the standard way too high.

It’s time to test the bookish hive mind. 
In this episode, the friends dive into Bookmark the Odds, the game where reader opinions rule and confidence is everything. After polling listeners with this-or-that and would-you-rather bookish questions, one host guesses the percentage—while the other two decide: higher or lower?

Points are scored, egos are bruised, and plenty of chaotic book talk fills the gaps. From Xaden vs. Rhysand to all the little reading habits readers love to argue about, this episode is pure bookish chaos, friendly competition, and way too many strong opinions.
