We're Parmiss and Maricarmen — two best friends who have spent most of the past year coping with the world crumbling around them by reading a lot of romance novels. Like, so many. Since we have so much fun reading these books and talking about them with each other, we thought it would be fun to bring other people into the conversation! Thus, Read Cute was born—our beautiful podcast baby. We hope you enjoy!!
In this very cancellable episode, we talk about The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary with our friend Tiffani!! Since we have only recently remembered how to read and even more recently remembered how to record a podcast, we go on many tangents and we refuse to apologize for any of them. xx Thanks to Tiffani for reading this book (twice) for the sake of our world famous pod. We love you!! Follow us on Insta @readcutepod and follow Tiffani @tiffanij_95 Kiss kiss!
WEEEE'RE BACK!!! We've missed you, cuties!
Hey, cuties!! Just a heads up: this week's book dealt with some heavier topics like sexual assault, intimate partner violence, and emotional abuse. If you're sensitive to those issues, we don't go into too much detail in the episode, but you may want to skip this book or be cautious when reading! Whether or not you decide to listen this week, we still love you :) If you do decide to tune in, you'll get to hear our (mostly) coherent thoughts about the Olympics, world-class athletes, and the bare minimum expectation that men remember when you say something important about yourself. We recorded this in Mary's car on a day where the temperature nearly hit 100 degrees so you'll also get the chance to hear our brains melt in real time! Don't forget to follow us on Insta @readcutepod, subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts, and leave us a review on Apple Podcasts! xoxo
The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren passes the vibe check (we reread it and did not hate it the second time) Reading about two people falling in love on a romantic honeymoon that was not meant for them turns out to be the perfect way to mentally escape a global pandemic! Thank you to our bestiana Dede for joining us this week! Follow her on Insta @magical.days.ahead and TikTok @thatbookbabe
Happy birthday, America! We hope you can picture many cubes in your mind while listening to us drag the presidency AND the monarchy as institutions. Thank you to @hellomorimoto for being our Stanford Blatch
We're coming at you with not one, not two, but THREE books by Jasmine Guillory. We talk about The Wedding Date, The Proposal, and The Wedding Party. We hated not one, not two, but ALL THREE, oops. Take a shot every time we go on a tangent unrelated to these books if you want to get as drunk as we were while recording the episode! Mazel! Follow us @readcutepod on Insta, leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, and listen anywhere you find your podcasts! xo
This episode of Read Cute is sponsored by Trader Joe's Simpler Wines (no, it isn't, although it really should be!!) Read Cute continues on our descent into madness with Miss Emily Henry. You'll get to listen to us become tipsier in real time as we record, discuss the book that made Mary send unhinged texts, and you get to skip listening to our 1000-decibel screams when Aria and Parmiss mention vasectomies — we're big fans. We love hearing from y'all, and we're always taking suggestions on books to cover! Reach out at @readcutepod
For this special episode, Read Cute goes where we have never gone before......to Aria's apartment. We have our best friend Aria on the pod to discuss Beach Read by Emily Henry! Aria did her homework and fact checks us multiple times while talking about Michigan(?), lesbian bookstores, and girls misreading signs (tag yourself: we're girls) Aria is the talented angel who drew our artwork!!! She's @hellomorimoto on Insta and TikTok, go follow and give her lots of (respectful, consensual) love. Subscribe to Read Cute anywhere you listen to podcasts and if you leave us a cute message in your rating, we'll read it on the pod
WE'RE BACK, BESTIES!! We've missed you, we hope the feeling's mutual!
This week, we're back with the complicated middle child of the Brown Sisters trilogy: Take a Hint, Dani Brown by Talia Hibbert! Tune in to hear us simp on main, dream of men crushing us with their rugby thighs, and still maintain our prudish attitude toward reading sex scenes. Kings, Queens, and royalty in-between: our DMs are open. xo **there are spoilers in this episode** Be sure to follow us on Instagram @readcutepod and let us know what you would like to hear from us!
We're diving deep into hot girl summer aka reviewing the Brown Sisters Trilogy. Up first is Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert. We ask the real questions like: Are we prudes? Is Button a cute nickname? Should we try exhibitionism? and most importantly, who are the 6% kings listening to our podcast? **there are spoilers in this episode** Follow us on Instagram @readcutepod and let us know which books we should cover in future episodes!
