In this cozy, bookish episode, we imagine what reads we’d recommend to our favorite Gilmore Girls characters—because you just know Rory isn’t the only one with a stack of novels in her bag. We also dive deep into the never-ending debate of Team Dean vs. Jess vs. Logan, share our thoughts on the infamous Season 7, and unpack A Year in the Life. Grab a cup of coffee (Luke-approved, of course) and settle in for the ultimate Gilmore Girls bookish chat.

In this month’s book club pick, we’re diving into The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah — a sweeping, emotional story of two sisters in Nazi-occupied France and the very different paths they take to survive, resist, and protect the ones they love. We share our thoughts on the characters, themes, and the moments that broke us (and inspired us), plus the questions this book left us thinking about long after we closed it.

Required reading often gets a bad reputation, but every once in a while a book assigned in school turns out to be unforgettable. In this episode, we reflect on the novels, short stories, and poems from our school days that went beyond homework and became stories we truly loved. We’ll explore what made these works resonate then — and why they still matter now.

What books being published right now will still be read 50 years from now? In this episode, we dive into the popular reads of today that we think are destined to become future classics—books that might one day be taught in schools, endlessly reprinted, and fiercely debated over book club wine nights. But, in Step Sisters fashion, we take a long (and necessary) detour into The Hunger Games universe. Who should get the next spin-off novel? Who do we want it to be about? (Spoiler: those might not be the same person.) Join us for literary predictions, unhinged Hunger Games theories, and our dream future canon!

This week, we're diving deep into the A Court of Thorns and Roses universe—sharing our thoughts on the series as a whole, our favorite moments, and all our wild (and not-so-wild) theories for what we think might go down in ACOTAR 6. Will we see more of Nesta’s journey? Will Elain finally do something?? We’re breaking it all down.

Then, we’re switching gears and playing a fun bookish guessing game! We each pulled some juicy quotes from the Goodreads highlights section of popular books and put each other to the test—can we guess the book just from a few standout lines?
