Books and When to Quit Them

Can I Bring My Book. The podcast where we, Kat and Amanda, will tangentially discuss books... and so much more. In Episode 4, we’re celebrating a full month of the podcast and diving into a lively discussion on DNF-ing (Did Not Finish) books—when to do it, how to decide, and our personal approaches. Kat shares her struggle with an audiobook narrator and whether she’ll push through, while Amanda talks about her current cozy reads and the appeal of autumnal books. We also swap our second Bestie Book Swap picks, exploring The Other Einstein by Marie Benedict and What You Are Looking For is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama. Join us for a fun, candid chat about book club reads, upcoming seasonal picks, and whether or not we’re “Gilmore Girls” or “Twilight” fall readers!
