Books and the City

Welcome to your new favorite literary podcast! Books and the City Podcast is hosted by four New York City-dwelling, book-nerd best friends who met for one Bookstagram book club, and the rest was history. Unlike most bookish podcasts, each episode of Books and the City stays spoiler-free. Every Monday, the hosts come prepared to discuss the last book they read, meaning you’ll walk away from each weekly episode with four new must-read titles! Pour yourself a glass of whatever, and meet your new favorite book club.

    Today's episode has us reveling in nostalgia, our favorite activity, after the latest American Girl news: there's a new "historical" doll from the '90s. So naturally, we had to get into what our childhood doll's accessories would be. Then we keep that nostalgia train rolling by talking about some childhood favorite rereads ❤️ Thank youuu for listening! You can grab BATC merch here: https://www.booksandthecitypod.com/merch.

    Hello friends, today we're getting RILED UP about movie and TV adaptatios of books!
