Pure, Simple, Lesbian Love (with Hannah Moore)

Pure, Simple, Lesbian Love (with Hannah Moore)

On this week's episode, we're getting a little ~sexy~ with Camille Perri's "When Katie Met Cassidy," a lighthearted queer romance that you might just fly through in one sitting. Some other exciting news? We have a GUEST! Please welcome Hannah Moore to the podcast. They're here to chat about the book with us, and we'll be diving into queer literature, trashy beach reads, and the dirtiest lesbian bars Richmond, VA has to offer. This is truly a can't miss episode... and as always, NO SPOILERS!

Take a Ride on the Memoir Train

On this week's episode, we're cozying up with Quinn's latest memoir obsession: "Stay True" by Hua Hsu. While it's chock full of '90s nostalgia, "Stay True" is actually a young book itself – it was published just last year, in 2022. Follow along as Quinn unpacks the difficulties of writing memoirs that aren't self-centered, how hard it is to pronounce "zine," and why platonic friendship is woefully underrated. As always, NO SPOILERS.

I Want This Book To Be My Wedding Date

On this week's episode, we're tucking into a discussion of romance, race, and a series of hot doctors with Jasmine Guillory's 2018 debut novel: "The Wedding Date." Don't think you like romances? Think again. This book is so much more than the typical puff piece – it's spicy, thought-provoking, and sweet all in one fell swoop. Plus, it's the perfect pick for your next book club read. Tune in to hear Quinn dissect "The Wedding Date." As always, NO SPOILERS – but we're excited to dive into this NYT bestseller and all of its sexy, champagne-driven charm.

Geeking Out About the Multiverse

On this week's episode, we're getting cozy with Taylor Jenkins Reid's 2015 novel "Maybe In Another Life." And of course, because Quinn loves a good tangent, we'll also be delving into the 2022 film "Everything Everywhere All At Once." Both of these pieces of media are concerned with the multiverse, and frankly, who doesn't love a book or a movie in which quantum physics, philosophy, and love overlap? Quinn sure does! As always, there will be NO SPOILERS – but there will be plenty of discussion about the cosmos, fate and free will, laundry, and taxes. You won't regret listening in... or reading this book!

The Last Podcast in Cleveland

On this week's episode, we're diving into Danny O'Dea's 2022 debut novel: The Last Man in Cleveland. It's a very special episode because, for the first time in our show's brief history, we have a GUEST! Danny O'Dea himself is here to talk about his novel with us. As always, we promise there will be no spoilers (no matter how hard Danny might try)... but we will cover this gem of apocalyptic fiction, its amazing cast of characters, and its evocative vignettes as well as some pressing questions about Danny's writing and publishing process. You won't regret listening in... or reading this book!
