This week, we’re joined by the lovely (pun intended) Jess from The Lovely Oak, the Etsy shop that’s making your Kindle cute AF. Jess tells us how she first went viral, what it’s really like balancing mom life and running a small biz, and what book she’s currently devouring. If you love cozy reading accessories, bookish side hustles, or just want to hear a fellow mom make magic in the margins, then this episode’s for you.

This week, we’re slicing into Butcher & Blackbird - the spicy, stabby romance that has BookTok in a chokehold. One of us absolutely devoured it like a last meal (no crumbs left, zero regrets), while the other is still standing at the crime scene like, “Wait… but did that really make sense?”

We’re unpacking the murder games, questionable body piercings, and all the morally gray goodness - plus a few critiques and questions that might just ruffle some blackbird feathers. Is it love? Is it unhinged? Is it both? Grab your iced coffee and let's break it down. 🔪🖤🐦

Spoilers ahead — obviously.
