  • 13: DEEP DIVE - HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE (PART ONE)

    This is the beginning of quite a journey... We get to talk about my favorite book series of all time, like ever. I am so excited to discuss everything about Harry Potter in this mini-series (probably will be a max-series considering just how much information is out there on Harry Potter). We dive into the first chapter of book 1, and discuss the background and the "why" of the world of Harry Potter!

  • 12: VOGUE'S (THE LITERARY REPORT'S) 73 (25) QUESTIONS

    I took inspiration from the YouTube series "73 Questions with..." by Vogue and decided to interview myself... but with BOOK-related questions! These are such fun questions to ask yourself for creativity, to ask SOs and friends when you want to bond, and are great icebreakers!

  • 11: (MOSTLY) LITERATURE THROUGH THE DECADES

    This is my true thought process and the way my brain works when I want to do something like this. Come hang out and learn about more than just books as we discover the wild and interesting nuances of years before us, back to year 4.

    Head to the bite-sized version OR skip to literally 40 minutes in if you want to hear me actually discuss this book. This episode starts with me discussing some * important literature * (aka the albums I can't stop listening to), which takes up the entire beginning two thirds of the episode.
