    Ep. 12 - Mid Year Recap

    Welcome back to our podcast—a cozy corner for book lovers of all kinds! 📖💛 Can you believe we're already halfway through 2026?! Neither can we. This week, we're pausing to take stock of our reading year so far. We talk about how many books we've actually read and whether we're on track to meet the goals we set back in January. We're diving into the Mid-Year Tag, which means all the good stuff: gushing over our best reads, confessing our biggest disappointments, and celebrating the authors and characters that completely stole our hearts this year. Plus, we get honest about our goals for the year, talking about what's working, what's not, and what we're tweaking heading into the second half of the year. Expect real talk, a few surprising picks, maybe some tears (the books made us do it), and a whole lot of bookish enthusiasm. Whether you're cruising past your reading goal or quietly pretending you didn't make one, this episode is for you. Grab your favorite reading snack and settle in. We think the second half of 2026 is looking pretty great. 📚✨ Follow Us on Goodreads: Dash – ⁠www.goodreads.com/user/show/134467546-dash⁠ Erin – ⁠www.goodreads.com/user/show/148875499-erin-payne⁠ Paige – ⁠www.goodreads.com/user/show/166321132-paige-hanson ⁠ Follow Us on Fable: Dash – ⁠fable.co/emily-elmquist-559409603864⁠ Erin – ⁠fable.co/erin-192737330055⁠ Paige – ⁠fable.co/paige-hanson-213735759132?period_type=year⁠ Follow Us: Insta – ⁠www.instagram.com/babblinbabespod ⁠ We will see you in a couple weeks!

    Ep. 11 - Guess the Character

    Welcome back to our podcast—a cozy corner for book lovers of all kinds! 📖💛 Think you know your favorite book characters? So did we and then this episode happened! This week, we're putting our reading memories to the ultimate test with a quote guessing game. We take turns dropping a quote on each other with absolutely zero context and have to figure out which character said it. From iconic one-liners to deep cuts that only the most devoted fans would recognize, we're covering the whole spectrum and let's just say some of us are a lot more confident than we should be. Expect plenty of wrong answers, dramatic pauses, and more than a few moments of pure disbelief. Think you can do better? Play along with us and see how many you can get right before we reveal the answers! Whether you're a quote-memorizing superfan or just love watching us struggle, this one is guaranteed to be a good time. Grab your favorite reading snack and settle in.
