Someday, Maybe by Onyi Nwabineli with Latoya, Jamaican Girl Reads
Join your hosts Kim and Nia, as well as our first-time guest, Latoya (@jamaicangirlreads) as we discuss a heavy yet somewhat therapeutic read. Someday, Maybe by Onyi Nwabineli is definitely not an easy story. And we highly encourage you to adhere to any and all trigger warnings prior to listening to this episode.
Following along Eve's grief journey after her husband, Quentin took his life, had us deep in our feelings. Yet also made us reflective as well. And so we decided to switch it up (again lol) and have a rolling discussion. We chatted about grief, how it can affect the people around us, and the importance of a support system, among other things. Tune in to hear all of our thoughts!

Better Than Fiction by Alexa Martin
Join your hosts Kim and Nia as we discuss our latest read from one of our favorite authors, Better Than Fiction by Alexa Martin. Drew Young inherited her Gran's bookstore the Book Nook. But there's one problem, she's not much of a reader. However, in the hopes of maintaining her Gran's legacy, she continues to run the store. Which includes hosting the Dirty Birds book club, a band of Gran's old friends who get together to discuss romance and pry into Drew's life. Enter Jasper Williams. A successful romance author who hosts a book signing event at the Book Nook. Upon seeing one another, sparks fly, agreements are made, and well you'll have to check out our episode to learn more. We both enjoyed so many things about this book. Including how Martin writes grief, the romance between our MCs, and the friendships. However, will Jasper convince Drew that happy endings aren't only found in fairy tales?

The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest
Back-to-back episodes? That's right! Join your hosts Kim and Nia as we discuss all the things about The Neighbor Favor. Lily and Nick are neighbors and quickly become friends. But what Lily doesn't know, is that Nick happens to be her favorite author N.K. Strickland, who she'd been emailing with for six months until he ghosted her. And yet somehow, this bookish romance felt like a warm cozy blanket. Sisterhood, a throwback to the early 2000s, and so much more make for an interesting read!
