Joan Lowery Nixon trio // Martinelli's Sparkling Apple-Grape Cider
I went back to my past for these, & there’s clearly a reason people tell you to never look back. It’s a shame I don’t listen!

Horns by Joe Hill // Firebrand Spiced Red Blend
Feeling horny? Well so is the guy in this book, but probably for different reasons. Tune in to see why!

99 Days by Katie Cotugno // Big Sipper Rosé
Have you ever listened to a teenager complain about how they did something stupid, & now everyone is treating them badly for it? But then the teenager tells you that they never actually apologized for any of it & then they continue to do terrible things? That’s what this book is like. Except you can’t offer the kid any advice; you just gotta sit there & listen to it for 8 hours...

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman // Magners Irish Cider
Eleanor Oliphant is absolutely NOT completely fine, but we can pretend, right? She is, however, just an unhappy person in need of a good friend. This book was so good that I bought the physical copy to reread it whenever I want to, & trust me when I say this: you're gonna want to. ***I also name dropped Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams in this—another great book who you will love if Eleanor Oliphant sounds interesting to you!

A Nearly Normal Family // My Sister the Serial Killer
This week’s episode is a twofer! That’s right: TWO REVIEWS! Technically four if you count the wines too... They are both centered around a murder (or 2... or 3...), but are drastically different! Wanna hear just how different they are?

An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena // Manischewitz Blackberry
What’s better than a book set in a beautiful cabin in the Catskill Mountains of southeastern New York? A thrilling murder mystery set in a beautiful cabin in the Catskill Mountains of southeastern New York. If this is your thing, this is right up your alley!
