  • Once More With Feeling by Elissa Sussman: a flashy second chance romance for the theater kid in you

    A second chance romance... but with a dash of enemies to lovers. Once More With Feeling takes two pop stars and sets them down in their true dream - an ambitious Broadway show, which their entire career is riding on. And this isn't just a second chance romance. It's a second chance at a career in the arts, it's a redemption arc, it's a new act for our main character, who was cancelled before that was even a verb. And it is all so WELL DONE. You will be rooting for these two from the first page.

  • Meant To Be by Emily Giffin: the BEST JFK Jr. reimagining

    What in the wattpad? This book is incredible. I cried. I delayed dinner to read. I could not put it down. Meant To Be is a fictionalized reimagining of JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette's epic love story. It's dual POV women's fiction, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

  • The One by Julia Argy: The Bachelor becomes sapphic in this literary fiction debut

    As a newly minted bachelor fanatic I could not WAIT to read this book. The One is literary fiction. It’s deep, it’s angsty, it’s all about whether our lead is there for the RiGht ReAsoNs, and it’s basically set on the bachelor and VERY reminiscent of S27 which makes me think Julia Argy could be physic. This episode I will be podcasting throughout the book, at pages 94, 170, 175 and the end, so feel free to read right alongside me!

  • Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld: SNL inspired women's fiction

    This is my FIRST EVER podcast reading vlog. I dive into my latest read, Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld, and tell you why I loved this book. Romantic Comedy is an SNL inspired romance, that focuses on the real life phenomenon where remarkably average guys on the show end up with incredible, gorgeous, accomplished female celebrities. But what if... that happened in reverse?
