Hello again bookish friends! We have a super special epsiode for you today!! Lately we have been recording our episodes almost exclusively over Zoom, but this and our next episode were all recorded with us all in person (In Martha’s recording studio). Plus, we had a guest on each episode! Today’s episode features one of our Patreon members: Phyllis!
First thing we had to talk about was the new season of Bridgerton on Netflix. Have you read the books? Have you watched the series? Magen and Phyliis have watched season two already and had some choice words about the newest male specimen for our viewing pleasure. Sadly, he plays for the other team (isn’t that always how it goes?). This TikTok sums up our views about it pretty perfectly:
We were still getting over April Fool’s Day shenanigans that scared the bejeezus out of us the day before. Especially this announcement that Tom Holland would be taking over the rold of Doctor Who (because many of us are giant nerds and care about that sort of thing).

Phyllis freaked us out by telling us that brussel sprouts gelato exists, and now we are rethinking our entire existence…
We actually read some books this week too!

And that’s it for us this week. Hope that we will see you guys next week, and that you have an amazing book reading week, bookish friends!
