The Hating Game Episode Re-Release - Now with 100%...

Chick Lit Book Club Podcast ·

2021/11/30

To prepare for the theatrical release of The Hating Game by Sally Thorne, we are re-releasing our previous episode devoted solely to this awesome book. We've removed Rae's dramatic reading of Smurf erotic fan fiction - You're welcome. We’ve come a long way in almost a year, but Joshua Templeman stays the same. A fixation with strawberries, a myriad of blue hued dress shirts, and a hostile paintball group activity all add up to the ultimate enemies to lovers story and we are definitely HERE FOR IT

We are so delighted that guest host Lee is returning to discuss Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston. This M/M romance is an epistolary lovefest between Alex, the First Son of the United States and Henry, Prince of Wales. It’s enemies to lovers, y’all, so you know we’re into it because we have issues. Also discussed are dumbbells for your penis (they’re a real thing), how everyone has a weird accent on this episode, and unfortunately we pull a really boring A-YOS! card. You can find Red,

2021/10/26

It’s Spooky Szn, and to pay homage to the time of Samhain, we are covering Warm Bodies, a novel by Isaac Marion and a 2013 movie starring Nicholas Hoult. This book definitely hit the ladies right in the feels: beautifully written, great pacing, and extremely eloquent. The zombie apocalypse has never sounded so good. The accompanying film proved to be a fairly decent adaptation of the source material with two thumbs up all around from the ladies. You can find Warm Bodies (the novel) here and the film

There was a lot of cockle warming to be had on this episode. The ladies discuss Abby Jimenez’s gorgeous romantic comedy, The Happy Ever After Playlist, which tells the story of how one very good dog brings together one grieving artist and a musician on the edge of stardom. This book includes an equally excellent playlist which can be found on Spotify.

2021/09/28

Continuing the celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the ladies partake in some magical realism with the classic Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. Taking place during the Mexican revolution, the novel presents life and love in a small family at the very beginning of the 20th century. Spanning a generation, the novel (and subsequent film) depict gender differences, cultural expectations, and familial tradition with a forbidden love story running throughout.

We are celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month with a review of A Lot Like Adios by Alexis Daria. Adios is a second chance romance and a love letter to New York City itself. It’s been 13 years since Michelle and Gabe have even set eyes on one another. Is the spark still present between these former best friends? Also discussed is the horrific story of a haunted baby doll, Veronica’s leap onto the Apple TV train, and Rae’s exuberance about Coach Beard liking their Ted Lasso tweet. In the

On this week’s episode, the ladies enjoy the last vestiges of summer while talking about the absolutely delightful Beach Read by Emily Henry.

2021/08/24

The ladies are back from a brief hiatus! We’re taking a trip to the Reidiverse, or the RCU, by discussing Totally Folked by HRH Penny Reid. We may be a little biased as the heroine is literally Rae from Cleveland, and our own Rae from Cleveland might be having an existential crisis. They also discuss Covid (wear a mask and get your shots, people), Veronica drinking the Ted Lasso Kool-Aid, and what 80s fantasy they want to live in for a day. You can purchase Totally Folked by Penny Reid here, or

Veronica got her karma this week reading, then watching Driven by K. Bromberg. Rae had the fortune of only watching it. The ladies ponder whether Colton’s d*ck is really that good, complain about company names, and lament inconsistency in the heroine. Additionally, they realize they must now rely heavily on that sponsorship from Safelite, because someone else might not be taking their calls. In all seriousness, Passionflix is only $5.99/month. It’s a company dedicated to turning romance novels into

Rae has never been in a Street Fight before, however, she’s about to go Chun-Li on a certain southern writer. The ladies go on a Nicholas Sparks journey that essentially ends in rage. They talk about Safe Haven, whether or not Nicholas Sparks actually writes romance, and why trigger warnings are important. Also, remember when Josh Duhamel was a thing?

Listeners: sit down in your favorite comfy chair, grab a cup of strong black coffee, and attempt to follow along. Rae describes the plot of Passionflix’s Wicked directed by Taryn O’Neill adapted from the novel by Jennifer L. Armentrout. To compare her struggles to that of Claire Danes unsuccessfully scrutinizing a Homeland-esque red-string laden evidence board wouldn’t be too far off. This is crazy, y’all. Veronica escaped the insanity by not watching it; however, poor Rae has to struggle
