Episode 92 - Why Don't You Get a Job

In Our Bookish Era ·

2023/01/24

We learned a new genre, work fiction, and so now here we are. This episode the characters in our books have a job that is carrying the story, or at least as a very centralized part in the plot. Kristia's main character works in Hell, literally. The coffee machine is always broken, and none of first five pens you try will work. While Rachael's character is a high powered lawyer who snaps a bit and takes a job as a maid. The only issue here is she doesn't know how to clean, or cook, or any

As the year wraps up we're getting ready to see what the future holds. Hopefully it doesn't follow the path of either of these stories.

Episode 89 - Into The Past

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/12/13

As the New Year approaches we'd like to take a look back, into the past, and by that we mean read a book or two set back in the day. Rachael's book was turned into a movie and has very mixed reviews. We love her main character and want only for the best, but when you're called the Marsh Girl, life is a bit hard. Kristia's book is by the Queen of Mystery, everyone dies and she has no idea who could have done it (a real head scratcher if you will). Books Discussed:Where the Crawdads

Minis are back and with that, let us introduce our very original idea of 'snow'! Kristia is starting us off strong with a meet cute that takes place in an unlikely March snow storm. Spanning a year our main characters continue to run into one another, like it's fate one might say. You'll want to shake these characters while you fall in love with them!Trigger Warnings: death of a friend, aging/sickly parents, postpartum depression (all mentioned lightly in this episode) Book

Episode 87 - The Book Was Better

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/11/15

We've got one of our favorite topics this week, the book was better. Each book was turned into a tv show, one we've seen and one we haven't, but we're certain the books are better! Kristia branched out with a historical fiction read, and the whole story is written in the form of letters. Set shortly after the second world war, this story is full of enjoyable characters that make it hard to set down. Rachael found out her book is closer to a spy novel than she expect. She's got a

Episode 86 - Happy Halloween!

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/11/01

Don't be scared! It's just us here with another episode. Rachael's book is everything you want in a kids book that adults will enjoy. Graveyards, killers for hire murdering babies, well that's not as enjoyable. While Kristia's novella is a classic tale in why you shouldn't take candy from strangers. Stay safe tonight friends, and whatever you do, Don't Look Under the Bed. Books Discussed:The Graveyard Book by Neil GiamanSour Candy by Kealan Patrick Burke

What's scarier than real people committing heinous crimes? When people do it in your own town. This episode we're coving two true crimes, one that took place in Washington and one in Nebraska. Both event terrified the members in these communities and in each story the perpetrators were caught.

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/10/04

Welcome to Spooky Season! We are back to our regularly scheduled episodes and boy have we missed you all. October is jam packed and we're starting off strong with some magical realism.

Episode 83 - Wait, Wasn't That a Podcast?

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/09/13

We're mixing it up and doing something a little different with these books this episode. Our books started out as podcast that were then turned into books! They're both totally wild, and weird, and odd, and an absolute adventure.We've got angels that aren't real, but it is illegal to talk to them, just fyi, and men who don't fit into their skin eating people. Someone is presumed dead, but might not be and an 80 year old 19 year old. Like we said, it's wild. Books

Episode 82 - Water aka H20h

In Our Bookish Era ·

2022/08/16

Is water wet? That's not a debate we need to get into at this moment. But this episode is all about water, or more precise, books with water on the cover. There are no made made lakes, or little creeks here - we've got the big vast oceans and whatever a Loch actually is. Rachael's book has a monster (maybe?) and a gal looking to run away from her (also, maybe) murdering father. Kristia's book happens to take place during a nuclear war while the crew of this ship are our chasing

Bring the tissues and prepare to get in touch with your emotions. This episode we are feeling the feels. These books claim to make people downright sob, will that happen to us?
