I've been obsessed with hamburgers.

Hamburgers?

Oh, my God.

That's so random.

Hamburgers.

I've probably had three hamburgers in the last, like, two weeks.

Oh, my gosh.

I probably have had three hamburgers, like, in 2020.

Oh, my God. Welcome to Book Talk, Et cetera, a podcast bound to grow your TBR.

I'm Tina. And I'm Renee. This is a conversational podcast about books and more from two Midwest

mood readers who are easily distracted by new releases.

And today, we're talking about the new releases that we were easily distracted by.

Hey, Tina. Hey, Renee. How are you? I'm good. How about you?

I'm booked and busy, but we're happy it's Friday.

You know, I'm ready for a bit of a break here. I'm ready for the weekend.

Yes, I like that. Booked and busy.

Booked and busy. And I'm recording in a new space. You can see my background. It's very cool. We made a little room in our basement and put some couch down here and some lights. And so I feel very profus.

Yes. It's like your own lighting slash recording studio. I know. And event, I mean, I will do like my day job down here too sometimes, but yeah, I just like to pretend it's my recording space.

Okay, good. I'm excited to talk about new releases, although for the second time in a row, as soon as we decide we're going to focus on new releases, I'm like, well, I don't know what I want to read. I don't know what. We're the worst. We are the worst. Are the worst mood readers. Like, it's a problem because we, okay, we say we like having a topic. And I know I do because it keeps me on target all of these things. But then I'm like, I love the idea of like, oh, good, new releases that I've been excited about.
