We're joined by everyone's favorite guest host, Nicole, and we're kicking things off with a little reading goal check in. Then before we talk about books, we're talking about books (some more) with the ones that are currently living on our nightstands. Spoiler: we all organize these piles a bit different, so that's fun. Thanks so much for tuning in! You can grab your (discounted) BATC merch here: https://www.booksandthecitypod.com/merch.
