We’ve made it to the end of season 2, folks, and it’s bittersweet! Thank you sticking around if you’ve been listening this season. We’re taking a hiatus as we both have our babies in November, but we wanted to leave you with a fun Q&A of all things bookish, life, and motherhood!

Hi friends! Today we’re talking about what books we’re looking forward to reading in the fall - specific titles as well as genres. We also contemplate what our reading lives will really look like with new babies in the picture. But before we get into all of that we discuss our cats, because who doesn’t love to hear some stories about Remus, Scout, Peaches, and Katie’s long-ago cat Bird (who was sweet but dumb).

Hi readers! You're in for a treat today. We are so excited to have Riley Sager on the podcast, national and international best-selling author of Final Girls, The Last Time I Lied, and his new release that came out in July 2019, Lock Every Door.
We loved picking Riley's brain all about what makes a great plot-twisty horror/thriller, how he got the inspiration to write about The Bartholomew—the creepy, gothic setting for Lock Every Door—his favorite characters to write about, and so, so much more.
This is a spoiler-free episode, and we hope you enjoy it! After talking to Riley, we are definitely in the mood for some more page-turning thrillers.

In today’s episode, Mollie and Katie lament the onslaught of heartburn because their stomachs now reside in their throats. They discuss what they’re reading, the fact that their books have overlapped some this month, they wonder where all the time to read summer books has gone, and they guess each other’s favorite books that instagram made them read (or in Mollie’s case, what KATIE made her read…).

It’s appropriate that this episode comes out the Wednesday after Mother’s Day because Mollie and Katie - both - have a relevant announcement! You’ll have to listen to find out what it is. They also both read Daisy Jones and the Six and talk about the nostalgia surrounding the book and go off on some semi-relevant tangents?

In today’s episode Mollie and Katie talk about book to movie adaptations - good ones, bad ones, and ones that are yet to be; ones that are (maybe, don’t stone them) better than the book, ones we like better than the critics, and ones that don’t live up to the book at all. They mention SO MANY, and the list is far from exhaustive. They also reveal some unpopular bookish opinions (again, don’t stone them).

Hi listeners! As I mentioned in the beginning of this episode, we wanted to apologize for the audio quality—we had some audio tech issues, but we wanted to try and save this episode because we LOVED talking with Karin so much! Though it’s a bit muffled, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
We talk about Karin’s publishing journey, what it’s like to be an author, why YA is so important, and so much more! Plus, some fun stories about Katie and Karin as kids (Mollie wishes she had been friends with them back then *tears*).

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FRIENDS! We hope you’re having a very spooky day! Today, we are so excited to talk with our friend Stephanie from Books in the Freezer - a podcast dedicated to horror books. We talk about the fact that Mollie and Katie are big scaredy cats and don’t read much horror (well, Mollie never, and Katie rarely) and how to dip your toes into the genre if you never have before. Stephanie is SO much fun and SO articulate. We hope you enjoy listening to her talk about this particular branch of fiction and why she finds it so compelling!
