V.E. Schwab is back with another tale that crosses centuries and explores love and desire. This time, it also explores female rage. Toxic lesbian vampires? Yes! But also, over 500 pages. Is the prose enticing enough to keep our attention for hundreds of years? Video: https://youtu.be/S5ihvxjcqDQ

Latest updates include: Project Hail Mary trailer People We Meet on Vacation trailer I'm Glad My Mom Died TV series Abby Jimenez Christmas surprise Ali Hazelwood dystopian romance Love Hypothesis movie and cast Video: https://youtu.be/cj7Lr-nAAP0

Why do boys gatekeep some of the best sci-fi/fantasy? We certainly aren't afraid of big, wordy books. Pierce Brown's "Red Rising" has had a renewed interest thanks to TikTok - and we think largely to the BookTok girls. Video: https://youtu.be/dnJHxWevQaE

We love a good Taylor Jenkins Reid story. The newest, "Atmosphere", has been creating a lot of buzz thanks to the anticipation of her fan base. A NASA woman astronaut love story? The hype writes itself. But did it live up to what everyone expected? Video: https://youtu.be/UUcwYVGTzhY

"Silver Elite" has been causing quite the stir in the online book community. Who is Dani Francis?? Is this book AI?? Is it political propaganda?? Or is it just a good "adult dystopian" read?

Ann Patchett wrote an excellent summer read in "Tom Lake." It's set on a lake and a cherry farm in Michigan in the summer. But it has some very deep topics included - like time spent together during a pandemic. Is this the pandemic lit we've been looking for? Video: https://youtu.be/l8sX7bl3K4k

Yes. We are serious. Today we are talking about "Twilight." Two of us read it as kids, but one of us is joining the craze a little late. So what merit do stories have when they become a seamless part of pop culture? Video: https://youtu.be/Acm7O7xQEd8

Dr. Emily Rath became an overnight TikTok sensation for her political views and discourse with social media followers. She's known for her hockey romance, but recently published a fantasy steeped in Finnish myth. Are the author and the book worth the hype? Video: https://youtu.be/Ht3nqyCIh40

There's no good way to describe "Big Swiss" succinctly. It's a bizarre adventure in trauma recovery with an unpredictable main character and a torrid affair. Is the absurdity of the story worth the time?  Video: https://youtu.be/EziP_6l3bXM
