Attention all TBR lists: make some room for the new titles headed your way! Pride month might be over but that doesn’t mean we can’t bring along the spirit of pride with us into the rest of the year. With that in mind (for this week's book chat) we curated a list of our most anticipated LGBTQ+ books ❤️🧡💛💚💙 So do hang out with us when you have a moment because we might just have the title to your next favorite read!

A baking competition. A single mother. Two cute suitors…ahem…I mean competitors. What could possibly go wrong? Maybe nothing. Maybe everything. To find out we recommend you dive into the pages of Alexis Hall’s Rosaline Palmer Takes The Cake and then come hang out with us to find out what we thought about the cakes and who we thought was the cuter competitor. Bring a slice of cake with you (to keep you company) while you’re at it 🧁

If you want to read a book about a Latino ghost boy with a big heart, his short attention span, and the friendship he inevitably builds with a questionably handsome cat, look no further 💚 There might also be a brujo love interest. And he might also be the main character 🌈 Check out Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas and come hang out with us for a beat or two as we drawl on about cute Latino boys and the mayhem they get into!

Hey, nerds! Happy summer 💛 This week we read The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar which features our lead, Nishat, who goes up against her girl crush in a fierce, every woman for herself henna war…for a school project, of course. But this battle is no match for the one raging in their hearts…or is it? We recommend you read it and find out so, be sure to get your hands on it ASAP and then come hang out with us 😬

City of Brass Book Talk: S. A. Chakraborty’s CoB is a fantasy novel like no other full of snarky Djinn boys and a hell raiser from Cairo. There is also magic, pickpocketing, and fighting. And it’s kind of twisty. Tune in to hear all of Jen’s favorite moments and other thoughts about the books.

Hey, hey, nerds! Let’s talk Cardan and Jude in The Wicked King, where the words, “Kiss me until I’m sick of it,” are uttered, among other gems. We were so excited to read the sequel to The Cruel Prince and one thing is for sure: Holly Black still got it! If you care to hear our ramblings concerning the second book in The Folk of Airs trilogy, then by all means, nerds, listen away to your hearts content! 💜

A nerds never ending TBR pile can surely be blamed on the fact that every year, new, amazing books demand to be bought—in this episode we talk about a couple of books, coming out this year, that we can’t wait to hold!

Hey, nerds! This is episode one of our Reader Rant’s Series, where we rant about our bookish pet peeves...join us if you’d like to rant along 😤💚
