Vibes are fine.

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

I'm Tina from TBR, et cetera.

And I'm Renee from its Booktop.

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 love gone wrong.

We'll share something that we've been loving lately, review our latest reads, and share books involving love gone very wrong.

If you enjoy listening, we love for you to follow us on Apple Podcasts or your favorite podcast app.

And if you have a quick minute, please consider leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts or sharing us on social media.

It truly helps us connect with other book lovers.

Hey, Tina. Hey, Renee. How are you? I'm doing really good. How are you? Fabulous. I'm excited, ready to talk about some

psychopaths today. Oh, I have a good mix. I decided not to bring all psychopaths and do a little,

a little mix up, a little mix in there. I wanted to get a little creative, I think, and I'm glad it worked out

really well. Good. I like that. And I'm just laughing at us. It's February, right? It's the month

of love. I see a lot of romance books around and we're like, no, we're going to talk about

like very disturbing love stories. How it just goes wrong. We have to do it our way, though. I think it

makes sense. It is very much on par with us and our reading preference. And I don't, I don't get into

Valentine's Day at all. I'm, no, I don't. Do you? We actually do get into Valentine's Day. I really, I like the holiday. Usually I get some flowers and we have a tradition of getting sushi every year. Like that's our thing is to eat sushi on Valentine's Day. We usually don't go out though. A lot of times we'll just order in. Lily's getting a little Valentine's Day gift, this go around. So it's kind of fun when you have little kids. Well, yes. Yeah. I think I used to get the boys stuff. But Darren and I don't really do it. We're both on the same page. Like, we just don't care. So it's not like I care and he doesn't, you know, we're in agreement. Right, right, right. It's good to match in that way. Yes. All right. Well, let's get into some loving laties. I want to hear what you've got.

I'll start. I have a show for us, a TV show, and it is a very me show. My loving lately is

Cheer Season 2. Like so many people, I absolutely loved season one when it came out in 2020.

This is a show about cheerleading, and it hits especially close to home for me.
