Sarah Adams never lets me down.🩵 This book had all of my favorite things: second chance romance, enemies to lovers, fake dating, dual pov, spice, smut it's all there. It’s only lacking for me in very small elements of the book that as a reader, just dont work for me and I’ll get more into that with the spoilers. When I'm reading a book, I go into my own little world and I sometimes find it so difficult to separate book from real life. If you love Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, and are so smitten by their whirlwind romance, READ THIS BOOK. You won’t be disappointed. 🏈💍

The book that got me out of a reading slump💚 This is a debut novel for Grace Reilly and there will be a total of four books in her “Beyond the Play” series; all of which follow different sports and siblings of the Callahan family (all of which will be getting their own episodes as they come out). First Down is a college, fake dating romance that tells the story of James and Bex. They came together naturally as “friends” then quickly as a fake couple in a mutual arrangement to get Bex’s ex off her back and for superstar QB, James, to get the help he needs to pass his writing class. It’s a book that reels you in from the very beginning and keeps you hooked until the end.

If you can’t handle the spice, then stay away from this episode because Grace Reilly is a SPICE. AUTHOR. Definitely a PG-13 rated book but I’ll tone it down for the younger audience on this podcast. If you know anything about me, I love smut. I’ll read it all damn day long. This book reminded me too much of one of my favorite vault tracks from Speak Now (Taylor’s Version). We all remember hearing that one, sultry lyric for the first time with our jaws dropped; at this point in her career, we had no idea Taylor had a spicy side and eleven years later, she is spilling the tea. This episode is a full book review (with and without spoilers, you know the drill) plus a lyrical AND music video break down of “I Can See You” from the vault. 👀

Now entering the Walter boy era… Giddy up🤠 This book is a perfect read for a younger audience, especially those who loved reading the Summer I Turned Pretty! Ali Novak was only 15 herself when originally published it on Wattpad. Jackie Howard loses her family in a tragic accident and has to uproot her perfect little New York life to move to Silver Falls, Colorado and live with (you guessed it) the Walter boys. On one hand, Walter Boys is a quick, fun read that is just fluffy. It’s a sweet story and I enjoyed it the same way I enjoy oreos – it's junkfood, but you can’t just read one page. For some reason you keep coming back for more. And somehow, despite its many flaws, I still loved reading it when I was in high school, and I think many teens will like it, too.

My Life with the Walters boys premiered as a Netflix series in December of 2023, and has been officially renewed for a second season! This episode talks about the book, the show, the differences between both and highlights a very nostalgic song from the Fearless era because let’s face it: we all know what it felt like to be “Fifteen” 💛
