Description

Before we get into the episode, we have to give a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY shout-out to our Leo Queen Co-Host, Kayla!!!! To celebrate, she's reading 30+ books in a day. Tune into her journey on Instagram. In other very exciting news, we have our final fundraising results in from the Books and the City merch sales! Keep listening to hear all about that, and don't forget to use the hashtag #mybooksandthecity when you share your merch selfies. And before we dive into our accidentally-themed episode mostly featuring books about choices (who doesn't love a theme!), we all talk about our favorite (and least favorite) book-to-movie adaptations. So get ready to add some fantastic books and movies to your tbr/watchlist! Read on for buy links, and check out bookshop.org/shop/booksandthecity to shop the books we’ve discussed on this episode, and all past episodes!
