[SPEAKER_01]: It has been hotter than literal hell.
1:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Like not even like literal.
1:52
[SPEAKER_00]: And like nobody of water around us to cool us down.

[SPEAKER_01]: Hi.
2:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Game.
2:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Like my daughter was twirling with the major that's at halftime, so I couldn't really, and we were there from 8 a.m. We did not leave until 5 something p.m. because the game did not start at 3, and the heat index got up to 128.
2:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
2:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the hardest game.
2:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
2:23
[SPEAKER_01]: The hottest game on record at Georgia Stadium.
2:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Almost all of the SEC games.
2:29
[SPEAKER_00]: It was that way.
2:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
2:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they were semi sold out.
2:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, people went, but then obviously left to really feel like yeah, South Carolina was like 115 and they don't have a turf field.
2:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So I can't imagine.
2:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god.
2:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was a turf field and our seats were up and just from the literally four inches from the sun.
2:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was, I felt like I could reach out and touch Jesus because I felt like I saw him.
2:57
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, so bad, so bad.
3:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So waking up this morning and it'd be raining and then we get dressed to go to the apple orchard and it's 70 degrees while I'm walking around.
3:10
[SPEAKER_01]: The breeze is blowing.
3:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I have my apple cider doughnut and that just healed something inside of me to talk about fall books today because honestly It's been hot and I have no one really I think fall and it was supposed to be hot this week But with that right and I came to this morning.
3:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's like brought it down somebody.
3:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still like

[SPEAKER_00]: I might come over and get in the car.
3:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have all the data saying here, my car is black.
3:57
[SPEAKER_00]: The interior is black.

[SPEAKER_00]: It is a tried and all the same line.
3:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to throw up this soap.

[SPEAKER_01]: Now imagine being 30 some odd weeks pregnant.
4:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm walking around in the seed with a boy.
4:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I was swollen.
4:12
[SPEAKER_01]: And I literally think I lost about 20 pounds of fluid once I had them.
4:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, it was so bad.
4:17
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
4:18
[SPEAKER_00]: The rain, when you think about this, did you see the chaos of the free needos at seven brew?
4:25

[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, it's so good.
6:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I'm gonna have to buy these for my shelves.

[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
6:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't know because you already know what I'm about to say.
6:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I know.
6:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I know all the spoilers from Crescent City.
6:24
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care.
6:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Like though, okay, spoiler alert, if you do not want to hear anything about book three of present cities, three of these stuff.
6:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Sure, yeah, maybe I'm going to put it like hit a noise.
6:34

[SPEAKER_00]: But like in a friendly way, are they in her world or are they she and she's in their world?
6:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Love.
6:48
[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's very interesting the connections that have already formed
6:54
[SPEAKER_01]: between the two series.
6:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
6:57
[SPEAKER_00]: See, I appreciate knowing the connections before I read Crescent City because now I'm listening and like all of these connect like all of this conversations like she was like hit and dropping in book one and part one of book two about how world connected and jumping worlds and like portals like all of like she's been talking
7:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And I love knowing what is going to happen, because like I'm more keen to understand, like I've picked up on the sooner.
7:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So we know, okay, still talking about Christmas at your earlier, we know that Anne-Ren is like some crazy match, like current, strong being.
7:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm curious to see because she is one of the people who is interrogating, right?
7:46
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like talking, and the way they're talking, things are coming back up in her memory that she's like, oh, in like Anne-Ren's ton of scared.
7:54
[SPEAKER_01]: It's Aaron scared, this is interesting.
7:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Why?
7:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Because Aaron is like, yes.
7:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Be saying to be scared of.
7:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
8:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's just, I'm having a blast right now because I know, like, a quarter of, so much flames, a quarter of storms.
8:10
[SPEAKER_01]: And like, I know all of that series and so it's fun being back in that series.
8:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, also with Bryce, who I freaking love.
8:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's great.
8:19
[SPEAKER_01]: And then they brought Nest to back in for a second.
8:24
[SPEAKER_00]: My girl.
8:24
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm just vibing.
8:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I am literally having really good time of my life.
8:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a hundred percent And so glad that I'm reading all this before I could turn so yeah, I'm vibing like that.
8:34
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like yesterday I spent a couple hours like deep cleaning my house and then I was like I don't want to stop because I don't like I'm finishing it tomorrow so that and I'm gonna like listen to some other stuff and then I'm gonna do part three Well, it's all my audible.
8:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I had to buy it
8:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, I couldn't find a party symbol, who I don't know, it might have been a weight, and I wanted to read it now.
8:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was on sale.
8:56
[SPEAKER_01]: It was on sale for like $4 or something, so I just bought it to listen to.
9:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes I think audible stupid.
9:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I do too.
9:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Like if I'm paying for a subscription, why am I paying on top of that for books?
9:08
[SPEAKER_00]: That's, of course, you're giving it to me for $4 because I'm already paying 11 minutes.
9:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I'll pay
9:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't do it, I don't remember shit anymore, it's just a dictionary.
9:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I see it as sitting in the book space, right, right, even though I'm probably going to pay.
9:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And $9 cheaper.
9:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
9:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a lot of stuff is on sale.
9:36
[SPEAKER_01]: 20%.
9:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So it works out in Chinese.
9:40
[SPEAKER_01]: If it's cheaper than my credit, I'll just buy the book and use my credit on something else.
9:46
[SPEAKER_00]: That's smart.
9:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
9:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like for all it was like yeah, like some of them are on sale for like five or six dollars and I'm I only use a credit moment.
9:57
[SPEAKER_01]: It's cheap.
9:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll use my credit on something that I'll listen to that's like one of those like 16 bucks.
10:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the more you know, it's more that harder for boughtable.
10:08
[SPEAKER_01]: There you go.
10:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Not that.
10:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Now we're going to get into all of our fall
10:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I did some romance, some suspense, and some fantasies, but I didn't do any thrillers because Kaylee does not read those.
10:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a sweet daughter.
10:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd like to eat that.
10:30
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a good one.
10:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I have three thrillers.
10:35
[SPEAKER_00]: The rest are on me.
10:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a thrillery thing.
10:38
[SPEAKER_01]: You're bouncing me read is romantic.
10:39
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a spint smile.
10:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm supposed to read a thriller for book club.
10:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Book club.
10:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm actually waiting for living to get me that book.
10:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I have not picked that up yet.
10:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It's chaseable.
10:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just like, she's light thriller.
10:54
[SPEAKER_00]: It's very light.
10:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, not really, not in the way that I'd probably say.
11:00
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because I read a Rally Sager, that was, it was good, but like, Russell was scared.
11:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, one of them I couldn't read past like, 11 o'clock, but nine.
11:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I was like, this is a little paranormal.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And some of this, I like, I'm afraid it could actually happen.
11:15
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to read Fantasma.
11:17
[SPEAKER_01]: It's fine.
11:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
11:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's wrong with me.
11:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, make a sense.
11:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't live.
11:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so my ultimate fall book.
11:24
[SPEAKER_00]: This will put me in the fall noon every single time I will never shut up about this book is if it makes you have a majority of the facts never shut up about this book.
11:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I am obsessed with this book.
11:35
[SPEAKER_00]: It is still a seven-story like
11:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Give more girls, done so well, single done, done so well.
11:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And he bakes the dog has a chapter.
11:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
11:49
[SPEAKER_01]: He bakes, but like it's thrown me a take on top of that because he tries to figure out what kind of pastry she is and like is that not Luke coded literally?
12:01
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like it's all the way Luke.
12:02
[SPEAKER_00]: It's
12:07
[SPEAKER_01]: spinning off with that, love felt like this, which is her new book as soon as that comes out.
12:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Tom Morrow from me more filming than it's nothing.
12:17
[SPEAKER_01]: She did it again.
12:18
[SPEAKER_01]: She did.
12:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I finished it.
12:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not fall per se.
12:24
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not as fall as if it makes you happy, but it's set like late fall early hunkter.
12:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
12:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not like as dead wringer of a fall.
12:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, guys, if it makes you happy, but it's still 10 out of 10 the voucher there.
12:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why she loves the single dad so much, but she really loves it.
12:42
[SPEAKER_01]: She really loves the single dad, but it works in this one because he's like a famous pop star.
12:48
[SPEAKER_01]: And he hides his daughter from the world because he doesn't want her in like the famous eye.
12:54
[SPEAKER_01]: The opposite of the right side of Stacey's leg.
12:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And, like, she dresses like she's from the 70s, but it's not in the 70s.
13:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yes, they both act like they're from the 70s.
13:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
13:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
13:09
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't, it's not from the 70s.
13:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if it's like, it doesn't even take 90.
13:14
[SPEAKER_01]: It seems like crying.
13:15
[SPEAKER_01]: based like nothing gave me 90's vibes which is what that if it makes you happy it's like very 90's current but they act like they're in the 70's and she has her own children's puppet show okay so they basically kind of get the link together because he's writing some songs
13:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and it's basically like a, it ends up being like a fake dating forced proximity type deal with love and I love it so much.
13:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, the ending of it.
13:49
[SPEAKER_01]: The ending of it got me.
13:50
[SPEAKER_01]: It did.
13:51
[SPEAKER_01]: It did.
13:51
[SPEAKER_01]: But I can't tell you anything from the ending.
13:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't tell you anything from the ending.
13:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't tell you anything from the ending.
13:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't tell you anything from the ending.
13:58
[SPEAKER_01]: love felt like this plays into the ending so well and I feel like Julia Libia if she's going to do one thing she's going to tie in the title of a book 100 versus so well in like yeah 10 out of 10.
14:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay so my next one I didn't want to deter anyone from reading.
14:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to give me my full
14:16
[SPEAKER_00]: But corrects, even if they were average for me, just because you may find them very differently.
14:22
[SPEAKER_00]: So especially if you're a Lucy score fan, she has one called Fallen to Tintation, which you actually sent to me about like putting as our book club open, I was like, yeah, but basically, is as Becca a reluctant bachelor finds himself drawn to his new fiery hair to knit Gia, a single mom juggling kids and a new business despite her family's meddling.
14:45
[SPEAKER_00]: The plot line, I like there's a lot of like.
14:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Banger, but there was a lot of like really rapid fire low, but the end, then I was like cringe, okay.
14:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was the only thing.
15:01
[SPEAKER_00]: But if you like that, then you eat it up, those kind of fall.
15:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I talked about this one a little bit in the last podcast, one of the last podcast, one part of this book store, and then I was reading it then, and I have since finished, and it has since become one of my top fall books, like
15:19
[SPEAKER_01]: It finished strong and it says after I failed engagement and both sore on her penny darling agrees to fake date her best friend Jake Monty Montgomery who needs help for who needs help writing romance to save his career but their pertain relationship turns real and it's so funny because like
15:38
[SPEAKER_01]: They've known each other since they were kids, obviously.
15:40
[SPEAKER_01]: But his grandma is like the biggest matchmaker ever.
15:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it is like the love of Larry and his mother.
15:48
[SPEAKER_01]: It's great.
15:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
15:51
[SPEAKER_00]: So funny that you said that because I just finished the fall affair.
15:55
[SPEAKER_00]: And which is by VQin.
15:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't say the book gave fall vibes, but if you look at the cover of it, like, it's a fall book, but it's funny that there was a meddling grandmother because this girl is a hot shot warrior in New York City, like super fast taste light.
16:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Her grandmother who lives in Tuscany or like a small village outside of Tuscany.
16:17
[SPEAKER_00]: dyes and leaves all of her property and her antique store to the daughter or to the grand daughter.
16:23
[SPEAKER_00]: And she has to go and live there for like months at a time to like get access to her inheritance.
16:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And obviously there's like a hot Italian wine maker across the street who like rents the land.
16:37
[SPEAKER_00]: And the grandmother plays much, my girl.
16:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, well, as she has done.
16:41
[SPEAKER_00]: like since letters like it's really funny.
16:44
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a really cute.
16:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved it.
16:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I love a meddling thing.
16:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I was like, what a odd thing to have those in the comments.
16:51
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's really good, too.
16:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, can't help falling by corning wash.
16:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't have to put this.
16:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I did.
16:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I just read it for the first time.
17:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't believe it.
17:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I hadn't read it until now.
17:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I read it.
17:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Like,
17:05
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot like when we got when I got introduced to Courtney wall.
17:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was just like a ring of one that I picked up.
17:10
[SPEAKER_01]: It's another bookstore owner who and firefighter firefighter.
17:16
[SPEAKER_00]: They, but they've known each other some time.
17:17
[SPEAKER_00]: They were friends again.

17:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and she's like very reserved to herself.
17:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's her best friend's brother.

18:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I literally were reading me like this and not be the main guy.
18:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And then it was any fall on the middle of the minute.
18:26
[SPEAKER_01]: And you're like, oh, the chair?
18:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
18:29
[SPEAKER_01]: With their two percent book club.

18:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
18:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm pretty good at that.
18:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I think we did the same one to the pumpkin spice traffic and it's a member on books to a hundred percent.
18:42
[SPEAKER_00]: That's like peak fall.
18:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, is it the decision book ever?
18:47
[SPEAKER_01]: No, neither one of them are the best books ever, but are you gonna have a vibe and have a fantastic time while reading?
18:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
18:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
18:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Genie who inherits the pumpkin spice cafe.
18:58
[SPEAKER_00]: It's in Dream Harbor, so it's like this whole town.
19:00
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the first one of 87 books.
19:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And then she disrupts Grumpy Farmer at Logan's routine and I can like hear the audio book in my head when I just said Jeannie and Logan like I can hear the voices in my head.
19:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I read it when I eyeball some Oh, the audio is really good.
19:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, did you know that at one take talk book of the year where?
19:22
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I did not know that I was very shocked
19:25
[SPEAKER_00]: whatever that.
19:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the cinnamon button bookstore is also in Dream Farmer, but it is another set of characters.
19:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And it has to do with a bookstore and like a scavenger hunt of no.
19:36
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it looks.
19:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It looks.
19:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I liked that one better than the pumpkin spice.
19:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the first one has a little bit of like a cozy mystery thing.
19:45
[SPEAKER_01]: It didn't beneath it.
19:46
[SPEAKER_01]: But I have read all of the books.
19:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's very except for the last one, like the D.C.
19:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I have not read that one yet.
19:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I have read the Christmas one too.
19:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that's because there's like a Christmas wine, a strawberry wine.
20:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's on.
20:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the gingerbread.
20:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, there's something I've read.
20:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I've read all of them.
20:10
[SPEAKER_01]: The only one I did not really vibe with was the strawberry one.
20:13
[SPEAKER_01]: The strawberry patch pancake house.
20:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't vibe without one.
20:19
[SPEAKER_01]: the rest of my debt and I cannot wait to read the rest of them.
20:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, off the beaten path by Madison, right?
20:27
[SPEAKER_01]: She's a indie author who's not very well-known, but I don't know.
20:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I found this one and the cover got me.
20:35
[SPEAKER_01]: That it was really, it looks so fall.
20:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
20:39
[SPEAKER_01]: And it says, a woman meets her anonymous dating at a friend, only to discover he's her grumpy neighbor.
20:46
[SPEAKER_01]: When her contractor bells, he helps with her cat and renovations, and then grow closer, blurring the lines between friendship and romance.
20:54
[SPEAKER_01]: And if I remember correctly, he has it all.
20:58
[SPEAKER_01]: He's the same old ad.
21:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what I sucked Kayleigh in.
21:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I worked on it.
21:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I day remember correctly because this has a small town single doubt about me.
21:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I take comedy and this one was really good and it's only got 2000 reviews on Google.
21:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Like she's not a very big, I think this is her most popular book and she's actually there's three in this series and I'm only read first one in the second one
21:31
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a little bit of a sense of what they were done.
21:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, my next one is the trap by Catherine Ryan Howard.
21:38
[SPEAKER_00]: This was a book club book.
21:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but I don't, you probably didn't read it.
21:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I was in the book book then.
21:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you not been in the whole town?
21:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh-huh.
21:49
[SPEAKER_01]: You came after me?
21:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I came after Y'all read that Christian handbook.
21:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh-huh.
21:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
21:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.
21:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I, or I've been the month after y'all read that person and him kind of book.
22:03
[SPEAKER_00]: So you've never read coverage.
22:05
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
22:06
[SPEAKER_01]: No, wait.
22:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I came that same that month.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I came because we swapped the books.
22:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
22:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I came that month.
22:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
22:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
22:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
22:14
[SPEAKER_00]: That was my first book club.
22:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay.
22:16
[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't read that book because I joined like very late.
22:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
22:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm here there.
22:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
22:22
[SPEAKER_00]: So the trap by Katherine and Howard,
22:25
[SPEAKER_00]: really love those books.
22:27
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a gripping mystery follows a woman's quest to find her missing sister and unsettling look into the mind of a serial killer.
22:34
[SPEAKER_00]: So the way that this book is structured, I listen to it and I love it.
22:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It's set in Ireland I think.
22:41
[SPEAKER_00]: But basically this girl's sister goes missing from a gas station.
22:45
[SPEAKER_00]: She kind of rejoices the steps because like
22:53
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a two like There's things going on with the sister that's working for the missing sister and with a die and You're also getting chapters from the serial killers point of view.
23:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that you're getting inside the killer side.
23:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Like and I don't really send another author that does that really.
23:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I love it because every few times you'll get a book Chapter and it's like I didn't want to do this, but you're making me want to do it.
23:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm honest
23:22
[SPEAKER_00]: So good, what?
23:23
[SPEAKER_00]: The audio was fantastic.
23:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if that was a spoiler.
23:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm sorry, but like I mean obviously you can tell By the way, it was like What I was listening to it.
23:32
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a different it was a man's voice.
23:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so female's voice.
23:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay.
23:35
[SPEAKER_00]: This makes sense.
23:36
[SPEAKER_01]: This has to be so cute Okay, this one is another not very well known author is called last caught the local Barcera release and It's a based in Ireland
23:51
[SPEAKER_01]: a free-spirited American singer songwriter with ADHD teams up with a charming Irishman to revitalize his family's pub and they discovered that the pub isn't the only thing that needs reinventing.
24:05
[SPEAKER_01]: it's a grumpy sunshine feel good fiction with fountain it's cute because it's based like she runs away to Ireland and then she ends up like not having a place to stay and so obviously he lets her stay all this like above the pub you know right in his little apartment and yeah it's it's just a cute little book and it's very short it's only like 300 pages
24:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, here's my one and only fantasy that I always think But it's spooky, but just cozy Gothic It's a time of year.
24:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I put that to the shepherd's Denver King series.
24:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Rachel Gailer does it so well.
24:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's
24:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Not like, I don't know, like it is fantasy.
24:54
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a very eerie, eerie.
24:56
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just a vibe.
24:58
[SPEAKER_00]: And like you've never read it or even like really hurt about it because you're more boring in school or whatever.
25:03
[SPEAKER_00]: It's basically a maiden.
25:04
[SPEAKER_00]: It says a maiden harboring a dark spirit unless embark on a perilous quest to say for kingdom from a sinister magic while battling her own inner demons.
25:12
[SPEAKER_00]: That sounds really dark.
25:14
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really not that dark.
25:15
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not, it's more of like the magic system
25:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Demonic, like, that's not what that really gives off that vibe and the description.
25:26
[SPEAKER_01]: It's where I would get there, friendly, y'all say romance.
25:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Now if you listen to it, it took me a second to get into it because like she reads these riddles essentially in the beginning of every chapter.
25:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, about the cards and the magic and that threw me off.
25:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because I was like, what are these rules?
25:43
[SPEAKER_00]: What are these rhymes?
25:44
[SPEAKER_01]: If you read the book though, it's literally like sometimes it's basically the chapter beginner and it's
25:50
[SPEAKER_00]: a riddle from the magic like that yeah like in it looks like it's separate and when you're listening to it you're just kind of like okay this is one but but it's not it's separate it is kind of like that series and she was like night them off which it's not it's not it's not it's got that but it's not as gothic this like shepherkin series just makes me want to wear my ghost sweatshirt and like being
26:17
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I mean, yeah, it's what it's getting.
26:19
[SPEAKER_00]: It's such an October book.
26:21
[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
26:21
[SPEAKER_01]: I love it so much.
26:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It is like the epitome of if it's writing books in October and the windows are falling.
26:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll pay for one dark one totally.
26:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Please.
26:35
[SPEAKER_00]: It is such a vibe.
26:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, such a vibe.
26:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Not one
26:42
[SPEAKER_01]: around me that and crown me yours.
26:45
[SPEAKER_01]: That is another gothic fantasy duality that is the epitome of an october read to me.
26:54
[SPEAKER_01]: You've got to finish crown me yours as well.
26:56
[SPEAKER_01]: It's on, I mean, we have to.
26:58
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to.
26:58
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's on my like, open come.
27:01
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so beautiful and heartbreaking and gross and dark.
27:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like a man's no, look at the first one.
27:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, there's nothing nasty in the second one.
27:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Love the other.
27:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, it's beautiful.
27:16
[SPEAKER_01]: The market's very long.
27:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the markets are going to raise.
27:21
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's like a, there's skulls and the reaper and it's just, it's wild.
27:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so good.
27:30
[SPEAKER_01]: It is, it's a wild ride, honestly.
27:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And then you end up crying at the end of it.
27:35
[SPEAKER_01]: So you just end up crying at the end of it.
27:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Every time you think about it, you want to cry.
27:40
[SPEAKER_00]: So there you go.
27:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't wait to see what that's about.
27:43
[SPEAKER_01]: No, literally.
27:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I saw TikTok the other day.
27:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was like, when you're just sitting there, vibing, and then you think about the ending of Crown Me yours.
27:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, yeah, that's crazy.
27:51
[SPEAKER_01]: That's literally it.
27:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, honestly, that is that is it.
27:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And then you're sad and depressed.
27:57
[SPEAKER_00]: So the house across the lake.
27:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I have two thrillers left that are like,
28:02
[SPEAKER_00]: no ricks.
28:03
[SPEAKER_00]: The house across the lake, this is the one that I could not read past one of them.
28:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, um, a little paranormal.
28:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Not to the end, but like, they're me for basically an actress retreats to her family's like house in Vermont to escape bad press and discovers a shocking secret about the couple living across the lake.
28:22
[SPEAKER_00]: That is very surface level.
28:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what that book is about and what that book entails.
28:29
[SPEAKER_00]: So buckle up for a wild ride.
28:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say fantastic book.
28:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I was genuinely like what the heck am I reading?
28:39
[SPEAKER_00]: it believed my mind.
28:41
[SPEAKER_00]: That's so good.
28:42
[SPEAKER_00]: He and probably went like it.
28:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I probably would not like it.
28:44
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's a little, it's like a thousand inception, like, yeah, in my mind kind of thing.
28:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, um, I'm going to give you my two romantic suspense book, Rex.
29:00
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's literally the bourbon voice series, bourbon voice and it's not specifically based in the fall.
29:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think, but if you listen to the audiobooks the way it just like is so cozy.
29:12
[SPEAKER_01]: It is cozy.
29:13
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like a cozy romantic suspense like that is why I'm recommending these and then anything like after and cows if you want to go a little bit freaked out.
29:24
[SPEAKER_01]: But also there be a lot of love story.
29:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, but you'd be like man this could probably happen to me
29:31
[SPEAKER_00]: So, wow, this could be relatable.
29:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this might be relatable.
29:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
29:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I was a stranger in the mirror, by LePompston teen.
29:41
[SPEAKER_00]: It was another book club pick that we had.
29:43
[SPEAKER_00]: But basically, in Indonesia, bride about to marry again, her husband found her, but dark secrets lurk in their marriages past.
29:51
[SPEAKER_00]: This one was also, believe my mind.
29:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if I got closure at the end, I think about it all the time.
29:58
[SPEAKER_01]: That's one years, I think, tell me about where you're like, yeah, I'm not yet.
30:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the ending was correct.
30:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I just, I'm just like, hmm, what?
30:07
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you mean?
30:08
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the same way for the trap, I think.
30:12
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm like those books because then I'm always thinking about it.
30:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Like none of this is true, like those books by Lisa Joel, those are good at like reads too for the cozy time.
30:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, I like not getting the full picture almost.
30:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I know that sounds crazy, but I almost want to left just being like what happened.
30:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
30:33
[SPEAKER_00]: We're like, well, I'm going to use people.
30:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have closure because now I'm going to think about that book all the time.
30:43
[SPEAKER_01]: earlier.
30:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't think I won't do that on the panacea.
30:47
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no.
30:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, the ruinous love trilogy is just a sure no go.
30:54
[SPEAKER_01]: No, this is.
30:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
30:56
[SPEAKER_01]: The last record.
30:56
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the turn black bird.
30:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, they're in the dark.
30:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I still have no finish the last one.
31:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I, uh, I know something.
31:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the other orange one.
31:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't finished it, so I need to finish that actually, I haven't downloaded it in my olive oil, I just have never picked it up, so I guess I'm going to pay that off after I finish reading Cressett's Tea, so I have to finish it, but if you want like serial killer romance, like, hmmm, I dig it for a fall, like it's just a bag.
31:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, my Kinsey didn't love it.
31:31
[SPEAKER_01]: But I also read much darker things than McKinsey and don't bad enough, so take that as you will.
31:42
[SPEAKER_01]: But the dark as in we like different like I like the levels of thrill like I like the stalker romance the serial killer romance like I don't want my reading stuff like that So that's mean while if it has any semblance of romance I can read it if it's just like a straight up the
32:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I couldn't watch, I haven't watched Criminal Mind, I haven't watched Dexter, I couldn't watch Dexter.
32:13
[SPEAKER_00]: We in college, watched Criminal Mind all the way through and then watched the backwards.
32:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We're back and watched all the episodes now, and passed, and that's, yeah, thriller should just not really my luck, unless there's romance, and then I'm good.
32:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, my last recommendation that I gave to myself was this one, it caught my eye, but it's called the Bodyguards Fall, which is by city steel, apparently.
32:40
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a part of like, eat also.
32:42
[SPEAKER_00]: This author is, we'll write in one collection.
32:45
[SPEAKER_00]: It's one of those things.
32:48
[SPEAKER_00]: but it says a mystery writer forced to pin a romance hides from her stalker and Vermont.
32:53
[SPEAKER_00]: With her brother's best friend as her bodyguard, discovering real love while writing fiction.
32:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So she writes thrillers like for TV show.
33:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was what they all can completely different direction.
33:04
[SPEAKER_01]: And you was about to recommend a stalker romance.
33:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, wow, it's just more of a romance suspense.
33:11
[SPEAKER_01]: OK, so I find out like the Abby Himmern is well-ect.
33:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, oh, maybe this is like an expanded version of the forest because like she her her boss is making her write a romance.
33:22
[SPEAKER_00]: She's never done it.
33:23
[SPEAKER_00]: She always writes thrillers.
33:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
33:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Has a stalker.
33:27
[SPEAKER_00]: She's vibin again.
33:28
[SPEAKER_00]: And then brothers, we love our brothers best friend.
33:31
[SPEAKER_01]: But I can't have that.
33:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and all of the recommendations are now you have, I want you to read good books with your time, okay?
33:41
[SPEAKER_01]: And so here are two books that I have picked up with the impression that they're fantastic, and they just went on.
33:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So, and yes, reading is subjective, but,
33:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I can type it to the sense that if it's a general sense of, yeah, the book I'm writing right now is in the TV file because I didn't realize it was actually in the series of one of the books that I hate it's like, you were saying, yeah, they write a bunch of movies within a series.
34:11
[SPEAKER_01]: The sentiment spiced in by Harper Graham, apparently, is pretty popular.
34:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I DNFed this book at 37% I said I can see where this will be a good book.
34:22
[SPEAKER_01]: If the whole story wasn't based on something that could be clear, no can two seconds, the most communication is awful.
34:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And I understand that there's miscommunication, third act break.
34:34
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all the time.
34:35
[SPEAKER_01]: That's fine.
34:36
[SPEAKER_01]: But make it worth something.
34:38
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like not something that all they had to do was sit down for two seconds and clear up in the whole story and best.
34:45
[SPEAKER_01]: All that because that was enough to piss me off, stop reading it.
34:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it just wasn't meant for me.
34:50
[SPEAKER_01]: That's rough.
34:52
[SPEAKER_01]: And then
34:56
[SPEAKER_01]: This might be the most heartbreaking one, because I used to have it.
35:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd bought the book because the cover was so pretty.
35:04
[SPEAKER_01]: It was, and, and, and, and, it's like the cream news homework book, adabillionaire, insta love and pumpkin spice.
35:13
[SPEAKER_01]: It's, the book was fake dating and abilionaire romance.
35:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I'm sorry, I'm y'up every single time for a fake dating billionaire romance.
35:26
[SPEAKER_01]: immediately, they were married in three weeks.
35:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And the whole family was in on it.
35:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And the sister was a parent.
35:37
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, they surely did not.
35:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And the sister was some kind of like all powerful, like, y'all are supposed to be together.
35:47
[SPEAKER_01]: My mother sent you to, you know, I mean, like, three weeks.
35:51
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot.
35:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Three weeks, why do you have to admit now it wasn't terrible if you are a fan of like super duper duper and still of.
36:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't worry.
36:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like if they're relationship, like it had dragged out the longer than a span of three weeks.
36:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Then what am I?
36:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, but that's just gave me the egg.
36:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I hate and still love.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's like a good spot for me to regret it.
36:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So if it's under 300 and 50, even though 100%.
37:00
[SPEAKER_00]: But I have a hard time like after force myself to read the fantasy over.
