  1. Like Mother Like Daughter

    2 DAYS AGO

    Like Mother Like Daughter

    Back in January, Julie's daughter Caroline was home from college so we took this opportunity for a mother/daughter book talk. In this episode Caroline talks about how not-so-great her reading year was, compared to Julie's best reading year yet (helps when you're a bookseller and not a college student). They also talk about how being pressured to read a book makes them want to read it less, how stating a book wasn't liked by Julie helps it sell in the bookstore, and so much more.

  2. Will You Be Mine, Romance Books?

    FEB 11

    Will You Be Mine, Romance Books?

    A romance enthusiast and romance skeptic walk into a bookstore... Kara and Erin - a romance enthusiast and romance skeptic, respectfully - sit down to talk through the divisive genre. They talk a bit about the history of romance writings, try to recall their first time…reading a romance book, and sift through some of the pros and cons of romance books. Whether or not you read romance (or smut, or romantasy, or erotica, or all of the above, etc. etc.), it’s here to stay. It is a layered and complex subject with a centuries’ long history. It is buzzing in sales right now thanks to the BookTok phenomenon, but it is certainly more than a hot trend. Let’s just say, romance books really shouldn’t be judged by their covers.  Grab some chocolates and press play!
