Little Sleep//Much Reading

Besties, we're all a little bit obsessed with something, especially in the Age of Social Media. This episode the Little Sleep Ladies read books centering around obsession, coincidentally both books involved idols, and the obsession with other people.

We go off on a few tangents in this episode so prepare for that! Also be prepared that Marissa's book in particular is disgusting! Make sure you check trigger warnings if you are interested in reading that one!

Hey Besties! This week the LSMR Ladies are talking about one of their most favorite topics ever: MOTHER MONSTERS!!!!! We definitely go off on a few long tangents about mother horror, and believe it or not, but also Father horror and what that would be.

Riss read Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects. Liza read Motherthing by Ainslie Hogarth.

Both such lovely and thrilling books!

Hey Sleepy Readers! This episode is a celebration of Jewish Book Week! Did you know that was a thing? We certainly did not, but are excited to celebrate it with you today!

We both picked books by Jewish authors, and books that aren't fiction. Marissa picked a Poetry book and Liza picked a Nonfiction book. At the end of the episode we even name a few books we considered reading, that you can pick up this week!

Sleepy Readers, have you been reading books by black authors??????? Have you been buying from black owned bookstores???? How have you been celebrating Black History month?

Aliza and Riss read books by black authors this week! Riss went for a classic author, the amazing, Octavia Butler and read "Fledgling." Aliza picked a Pratt Professor, James Hannaham, and read his new book "Didn't Nobody Give a Shit What Happened to Carlotta."

We also talked some lit news, and had a really good conversation about the discussion of consent in "Fledgling"

A VERY explicit episode not at all about corn.

Hey sleepy readers! This week the Little Sleep ladies read Porn books. Join us on this wild ride. Liza enjoyed a tame book about a girl on a self discovery called "Shmutz: A Novel" by Felicia Berliner. Marissa went very dark and dirty with Katee Roberts' "Court Of The Vampire Queen".

It is that time of year again where humans let a weird kind of rodent tell us if it is going to stay cold or get warmer...in other words it is Ground Hogs Day! To celebrate in our own way, the two Little Sleep Ladies picked books with big themes of winter and/or darkness.

This episode is a little bit on the shorter side because we had one DNF this episode! Whose book do you think got the chop???

Hey Sleepy Readers! We are celebrating another raging birthday here on the Little Sleep Pod. This time we are giving a big happy birthday to Mister Edgar Allen Poe! For this episode we picked Gothic Horror books or a retelling of a Poe Tale.

We also have a fun conversation about Gothic Horror and some of our favorite Gothic Writers!
