    The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid (ft. Ava & Riane!)

    We are kind of obsessed with this book and we may or may not have sat in a vegan restaurant for an hour talking about it. Small note: I mention here that lil nas x had a court date the next day.... All I have to say about that is that I am incredibly gullible. It was a marketing ploy— He just released a music video. It was a damn good music video though. about: •what’s ur name bbg? liv😏 •mmm and what’s ur star sign? virgo😏 •omg ahah and what’s ur favorite book? emma😏 •girl what do you do? im student at duke university😏 •that’s so sexy of you. what’s ur major? evolutionary anthropology😏 •oh okay so who are all these randos on the pod? my friends. send in a voice memo if you’d like to be on too ⬇️

    What do you do when morally you know you shouldn’t like a book..... but you still read it in like a day. about: •what’s ur name bbg? liv😏 •mmm and what’s ur star sign? virgo😏 •omg ahah and what’s ur favorite book? emma😏 •girl what do you do? im student at duke university😏 •that’s so sexy of you. what’s ur major? evolutionary anthropology😏 •oh okay so who are all these randos on the pod? my friends. send in a voice memo if you’d like to be on too ⬇️

  4. Catch-22 by Joseph Heller (ft. Lydia!)

    Catch-22 by Joseph Heller (ft. Lydia!)

    We talk about Catch-22!! We LOVED this book but the question still looms: was the sexism part of the satire? All that and more in this riveting take on a book whose author would probably drop dead if he knew these teenage girls liked it so much. Note that my phone overheated in the sun and it cut us off but we were mostly done anyways. This is just an unedited straightforward conversation so plz enjoy :’) about: •what’s ur name bbg? liv😏 •mmm and what’s ur star sign? virgo😏 •omg ahah and what’s ur favorite book? emma😏 •girl what do you do? im student at duke university😏 •that’s so sexy of you. what’s ur major? evolutionary anthropology😏 •oh okay so who are all these randos on the pod? my friends. send in a voice memo if you’d like to be on too ⬇️

  5. Emma by Jane Austen

    Emma by Jane Austen

    If I were you I would listen to this at like 2x playback speed because I speak kind of slowly and somberly. And it is long. But what can I say? It’s because I have a lot of feelings about this book that I don’t even think I really articulated well, and I don’t think I ever will because it’s like that important to me? Also I know I said the “rapid-fire” whatever was cut down from ten minutes.. and then I proceeded to talk for ten minutes. Just know I really tried. Okay, here’s the table of contents: •“Rapid fire” summary- 0:56 •Complaining about the audiobook even though I listened to it for like 10 hours- 11:43 •Quotes and analysis- 13:45 •Very quick thoughts on EMMA. (2020)- 28:12 •Clueless- 30:38 •Secret messages only for Lydia and Riane- 42:09 about: •what’s ur name bbg? liv😏 •mmm and what’s ur star sign? virgo😏 •omg ahah and what’s ur favorite book? emma😏 •girl what do you do? im student at duke university😏 •that’s so sexy of you. what’s ur major? evolutionary anthropology😏 •oh okay so who are all these randos on the pod? my friends. send in a voice memo if you’d like to be on too ⬇️
