Description

On this episode, we have a lot to catch up on!
With the release of Taylor Swift’s version of 1989 we’re wondering why no one ships Taylor Swift and Harry Styles? We covered Fingernails recently, a movie now streaming on AppleTV, and we still can’t stop thinking about what it means to say love is a choice. Carinn is celebrating and sharing the small, but amazing, moments of her publishing journey with us (blurbs from her fellow authors and idols, oh my!).
We are also reading of course! Mentioned in this episode:
Nightwatching by Tracy Sierra
A Novel Obsession by Caitlin Barasch
I'm Not Done With You Yet by Jesse Q Sutanto
Expiration Dates by Rebecca Serle
Love, Me by Jessica Saunders

In Pop Fiction Women we deep-dive into the complicated women of books, movies and TV shows, along with the women that bring them to life behind the scenes. Think Fleabag and Phoebe Waller Bridge, Normal People and Sally Rooney, and so much more. In each episode you can expect us to: * Break down the protagonist as we ask what makes her complicated? * Identify the best scenes, which can mean sweetest, funniest, or most badass. Anything we love. * Recount the cringiest scenes. The ones that make you squirm. Sometimes it’s self-sabotage, sometimes it’s growth, but it’s always part of the process of becoming our complicated selves. * Play arm-chair therapist in What’s Your Damage, Heather? An homage to the iconic line in Winona Rider’s Heathers, we discuss how these characters got to be the way they are. * “What She Said” - the segment where we scour every essay and interview with the women behind the scenes and share some of our favorite first person quotes. Real life is as interesting as fiction here. * Look into our crystal ball and ponder where these characters are six months later and five years later. Typically, Kate gets very real and Carinn gets buck wild. * Provide a takeaway, aka that part in the podcast where we try to sound deep. We leave you with some parting wisdom, challenge each other with thought-provoking questions inspired by the work, and urge you to “stay complicated.”
