| 0:00.0 | Olivia Culpo here to tell you all about the launch of the new Abercrombie spring denim collection, |
| 0:05.5 | made the way denim should feel. Their denim has always been a staple in my wardrobe and has a wide range of fits, |
| 0:11.4 | styles, and washes. Every jean is available in both their classic fit and viral curve love. |
| 0:17.5 | Shop in the app, online, and in stores. This is the Get Booked podcast, a weekly show for personalized reading recommendations. |
| 0:43.5 | This is episode 211, and we are recording on December 16th. |
| 0:47.7 | I'm Jen Northington, and I'm here with Amanda Nelson, and we're coming to you from Book Riot. |
| 0:52.2 | Hello. |
| 0:53.1 | And our hot chocolate plans. Hot chocolate. I am trying to find a, not completely non-dairy because I'm using whipped cream, but like a non-dairy base hot chocolate. That isn't milk. That's like almond milk or coconut milk or something. I tried it with almond milk. It was gross. My children didn't notice, though, because they are eight and will drink anything that looks like hot chocolate. |
| 1:12.5 | I bet I could put milk and, like, dirt in a cup and give it to them. |
| 1:15.9 | And maybe this is amazing. It has so much sugar. Have you tried soy milk? Do you like soy milk? I, when I was vegan as a teenager, hashtag, of course I was, I drank a lot of soy milk and I think I traumatized myself out of. |
| 1:30.9 | Fair, fair. vegan as a teenager. Hashtag, of course I was. I drank a lot of soy milk and I think I |
| 1:29.5 | traumatized myself out of that experience. But that was also like 15 years ago. I'm sure it |
| 1:34.9 | tastes much better than it did. I mean, it does. In the 90s. Yeah, I can vouch. But it still |
| 1:40.4 | might not be a jam. Anyway, if you have suggestions for Amanda, send them to me on Instagram. Hit us up. All right, let's talk about books now. First, I will tell you how this show works. It is a weekly reading show, as I said, for personalized reading recommendations. You send us your questions about what you should read next or what your book club should pick up |
| 2:01.0 | or what you might want a gift to a friend or a relative or whatever, and we will do our best to |
| 2:06.6 | find you a good option. You can send those in either via email, get booked at bookriot.com, |
| 2:12.0 | or through the form on the website, all of the show notes have the form at the bottom for the show. |
| 2:17.4 | And if your question is time sensitive, please, please, please put that either in the subject line of your email or the very first line of the form. We will do our best. If we're not going to get to it on air by the deadline, we will try to shoot you back in email. And if you've asked a question that has been answered before, or if it's just been a |
| 2:34.8 | really long time, I'm trying to get to some of the older questions. So keep an eye out for those. |
| 2:39.6 | For feedback, we have a note for Katie, who was looking for quick own voices novels of |
| 2:45.5 | disability. Kelly recommends Turtles all the way down by John Green, which draws on the author's own experiences of obsessive-compulsive disorder. |
| 2:54.0 | And then for Andrea, who wanted dark thrillers a few episodes ago, try Leslie Conner's The Weight of Chains about Giles DeRay, who was a historical serial killer. |
