Pagebreak

Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus is one that we've had on our minds for awhile - and after Vicky finished it we knew we had to get into it. We do a deep dive into the plot line, our likes and dislikes, and some discourse on choice feminism!TW: Mentions of assault from around 10:30 to 10:45As always:Website: pagebreak.simplecast.comTiktok - PagebreakpodcastInstagram - pagebreakpodcastEmail - pagebreakpodcast@gmail.comSee you in a month!

We are finally seniors, which means 2024 is our graduation year! With that comes a lot of uncertainty about our future and the choices we're going to make - so what better place to turn to than some books! In this episode, we analyze books where we feel the characters or authors made good choices, and ones in which we felt they could have done a lot better...because sometimes even the most plot-advancing decision is not the right one. Even we were surprised by the depth of analysis on this one, so tune in for some thought (and laugh) provoking discussion!As always:Website: pagebreak.simplecast.comTiktok - PagebreakpodcastInstagram - pagebreakpodcastEmail - pagebreakpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

We have read a LOT of books in the past month. So for this episode, we decided to do a deep dive into these books, and analyze both them and the themes they talk about (very English class, we know!)

Fourth Wing is one of our new favorite books of the year, and now that Eira has finally caught up with reading it, we figured we would do a deeper analysis on it, as well as the newly released single, Iron Flame!

As our senior year continues, and fall has dawned on us, we've been very reminiscent. So in this episode, we cover some of our favorite childhood books, and the progression of various series - specifically whether or not we think their various continuations have helped or hurt. This is one of our favorites so far, so tune in!As always:Website: pagebreak.simplecast.comTiktok - PagebreakpodcastInstagram - pagebreakpodcastEmail - pagebreakpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

If you guys listened to one of our first episodes, Screenbreak, from two years ago (yes it really has been that long!!) we rave about Shadow and Bone season 1.

We realized that we haven't really just gone through books in awhile - which for a podcast about books is a little weird. So we did an extended reading recap, where we go into our reading choices and recommend some books we've read so far this year!

Normally, when we're recording, it takes us AGES to actually get to the point. In fact, our last recording was an hour long - and the episode you guys heard was maybe 20 minutes. So we thought it would be fun to give you guys a little behind the scenes footage and let you know what we sound like when we're not podcasting - from Vicky's various TikToks of hot men to Eira's 5 different existential crises, we do it all!As always, see you in two weeks, and follow socials below!Find us at:Website: pagebreak.simplecast.comTiktok - PagebreakpodcastInstagram - pagebreakpodcastEmail - pagebreakpodcast@gmail.comTune in in two weeks!!

So we've been slacking, and we realized that because of that we're not giving you guys the best content we possibly could. In the spirit of actually making good content, we've decided to cut down to episodes once a month, and we plan on making them slightly longer and more in depth. For this month, enjoy some of our favorite moments that didn't make it into episodes, but (we think) are extremely funny. Thank you to all of you guys who are putting up with us as we grow and figure out how to balance this podcast with the rest of our lives, it means a lot that you guys are still here. We can't wait to talk to you again soon! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey everyone, it's been awhile! Much like we are back to school, we are back making episodes again, and here to stay (hopefully)!As you know, we LOVE complaining, and we love nothing more than to complain about books.

Sorry for the late update, we have been doing a lot! Sequels are certainly a contested topic amongst most readers, including us. They have their benefits, but are they really necessary?

TW: Mentions of abuse and harassmentWe wouldn't be a reading podcast if we didn't acknowledge the...wondrous...world of fanfiction. We all know Vicky had an addiction, but after seeing some things recently she feels as though she has been cured. We discuss why that is, as well as Wattpad, AO3, and the toxicity within fandoms - we get into it in this episode, so buckle up!Find us at:Website: pagebreak.simplecast.comTiktok - PagebreakpodcastInstagram - pagebreakpodcastEmail - pagebreakpodcast@gmail.com Tune in in two weeks!!

Our uncut recordings tend to be ... chaotic to say the least. Over the past eight months, we have gathered a plethora of clips too good to delete that didn't make the cut.

Enjoy this...interesting...new episode where we become the stereotypical teenage girls we truly are and discuss all things romance. Note: Sorry about the delay in the episode!!

It is a tale as old as time, but midterms have been attacking us recently. However, we are ever dedicated to you all, and so we have persevered and brought you an episode nonetheless. Do we like annotations? What are the best ways to annotate? Are we really better than everyone? (that one is a yes).
