    TW: explicit discussion of disordered eating from 10:20-19:10. Please skip if you need to.


    Hey freakos! Welcome back to another episode of Still Reading. This week, I'm giving you an update on how I'm doing personally (jobless, uninsured), discussing my new special interest which is Catherine of Siena, and finally breaking down my thoughts on Disappoint Me by Nicola Dinan.

  • 6: WE ARE SO BACK!!!!!!

    Welcome back to another episode of Still Reading! This week, we're chatting about my accidental hiatus, my delusions being confirmed by woo-woo girls on Tik Tok, and the five books I've read since we last spoke. The real meat and potatoes is my discussion of Pachinko by Min Jin Lee, which should be required reading for every person on earth.

  • 2: Can We Ever Truly Be Fulfilled?

    Welcome back to another episode of Still Reading! This week we're chatting Writers & Lovers by Lily King, Rob Reiner's iconic film Stand by Me, coming of age, and whether or not fulfillment is futile. It gets a little existential in this one.

    TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of suicide and parent death related to the discussion of Writers & Lovers.
