It's time for our June Recent Reads!
Join us as we chat about everything we read throughout June - the books we absolutely loved, the ones that surprised us, and a few that didn't quite hit the mark. From swoony romances and gripping thrillers to fantasy adventures and unforgettable literary fiction, we're sharing our honest, spoiler-light thoughts to help you find your next great read. Whether your TBR is already out of control (same!) or you're looking for your next five-star read, we've got plenty of recommendations...and maybe a few books to skip. Tell us in the comments: What was your favorite book you read in June? Did we mention any of your favorites?

May’s Recent Reads has arrived, and we’re unpacking the books that kept us up way too late, hijacked our group chats, and lingered in our minds long after we turned the last page. Some earned a permanent spot on our favorites shelf, some sent us on an emotional roller coaster, and at least one that had us asking, “Wait… what did we just read?”
This episode is a laid-back chat about everything we picked up this month—from hidden gems and buzzy new releases to the stories we can’t stop recommending to anyone who will listen. We’re talking unforgettable characters, surprising plot twists, books that deserve a spot on your TBR, and the occasional reading disappointment. As always, expect detours, questionable analogies, passionate debates, and at least one completely unnecessary tangent. So pour yourself a coffee, tea, or your beverage of choice, grab a snack, and join us for another cozy reading recap. Whether you’re hunting for your next five-star read or just enjoy listening to three book lovers enthusiastically ramble, you’re in the right place.
Think Succession, but with more romance, more coastal atmosphere, and at least a tiny shred of emotional self-awareness. We’re talking secret affairs, simmering resentment, family power plays, inherited trauma, wildly complicated sibling dynamics, and one unfairly attractive right-hand man who absolutely does not help the situation.
Join us as we discuss the chaos, the characters we loved to hate, the razor-sharp family dynamics, and why this book felt like the perfect storm of summer escapism and emotional devastation. |
