After sharing how much I loved Seven Days In June by Tia Williams, I'm joined by Cameron (@chamberofsecretbooks) where we chatted all things BookTok before diving into her thoughts on Gilmore Girls (Team Tristan rise!) and then finally talking Pride & Prejudice. Tara will be back with us on Tuesday for our regularly scheduled programming!

If you want to join our book club, join us on Fable where you can read Happy Place by Emily Henry or The Idiot by Elif Batuman. Or both! Always both!
