Hello everybody and welcome to Books Unbound, the podcast where we unbind books to get to their hearts with your hosts.

Me, it's Ariel, and me, Raylene.

Woohoo!

We're very excited to be here today talking about some books.

As always, we're going to talk about what we're reading right now.

We're going to answer some recommendations and do our book news segment.

I have a pretty weird piece of book news for you today, Rayleigh.

It's kind of strange, but I'm

excited to share it. I can't wait to hear it. But yeah, before we jump in, we wanted to let

everyone know that we are ramping up to do our next book club read. So these are just,

we're going to do these a couple times a year. And we want to give everyone time to vote, but also time to get the book.

Obviously, depending on how popular a book it is, it takes people more time to order it.

If you're in a country that doesn't publish it, or if you're trying to wait for it from the library.

So, yeah, the first thing we need to do, everyone, is vote. So head on over to

our Patreon at patreon.com forward slash books, unbound. And while you're there, you can, I don't

know, maybe think about supporting us, I guess. Do more than just vote, come on. But yeah,

you can, you can throw in your vote for which book you want all of us to read together.

And then we'll do a special episode like we did for our last book club.

We also wanted to say a huge thank you because we reached our goal of $500.

Wow.

So exciting.

So exciting.
