Found Family, Fake Dating, and Fabio Moms
Can I Bring My Book: The podcast where besties meet books… and sometimes black coffee reveals your reader soul.
This week, Amanda and Kat spiral through chaotic quizzes, coffee orders, and the wild world of interspecies romance. (Yes, really.) First up? A deep dive into Novelist, a new tool offered by their local library that serves up book recs based on shows you love (like The Bear) or tropes you're obsessed with (like "found family" and "whimsy"). Then, things take a turn…
What starts as a “What your coffee order says about you as a reader” quiz quickly devolves into debates about whether a deviled egg counts as a species, Amanda’s mom’s smutty reading preferences, and why Kat might need to switch siblings.
They also share this week’s tropes:
-
🐾 Interspecies romance (we're looking at you, Signs of Cupidity)
-
🏡 Boy/girl next door
-
❤️ Enemies to lovers (with bonus fake dating)
Books and shows mentioned:
-
The Bear (TV)
-
Signs of Cupidity by Raven Kennedy
-
Creature Cafe series by Cleo Evans
-
Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter
-
A Court of Thorns and Roses and Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas
Come for the bookish banter, stay for the chaos.
