CLICK HERE for all the details.* Hi, book nerds! We’re really excited to bring these monthly episodes to our paid subscribers. We’ll be sharing what we read this past month, but we’ll be going a little more in depth than we do in our weekly recaps. Well… sort of. We kind of decided that we don’t want to talk much about books that we don’t really care for (other than a quick thought about why it didn’t work). We’d rather be super excited about sharing books we loved or want to feature for a particular reason. Let us know what you think about this change.
