Get ready for some serious psychological unravelling...  Margo and her husband, Ian are stuck in a brutal housing market, losing bid after bid, they put their future plans on hold. When Margo becomes fixated on the perfect house, she secretly inserts herself into the sellers’ lives to sway them.

Welcome to The Chatty Reader

Welcome to The Chatty Reader!  I’m Beka, and my favorite part of reading has always been talking about books—swapping reactions, dissecting characters, and sharing the moments that made me gasp, laugh, or spiral. I created this podcast to build a community of readers who love the conversation just as much as the reading itself. Each month, I’ll dive into a new book and explore it from every angle—serious and silly questions, high‑brow analysis and low‑brow chaos. Our first pick is Best Offer Wins by Marisa Kashino, and I can’t wait to get into it with you. I’d love to hear your suggestions for future book club picks.
