Books, Booze, & Home Renovations

Life absolutely kicked our asses in May, so instead of attempting to coordinate a proper book club episode, we poured some rum and let the conversation go wherever it wanted. What starts as a discussion that's at least vaguely adjacent to books and booze quickly turns into one of our classic wandering episodes. Along the way, we revisit some favorite topics—including the SJMverse, Heated Rivalry, hockey romances, and other bookish obsessions—before somehow ending up deep in home renovation territory. Laurel is planning a gallery wall. 'Stina is dreaming of French doors and a library makeover. Claire would simply like to stop paying rent. It's a journey. If you've ever sat around with friends, a drink in hand, and watched a conversation spiral from romance novels to real estate dreams, this episode is for you. Grab your beverage of choice and join us for an hour of bookish tangents, questionable priorities, and the kind of chaos that happens when life gets in the way of the schedule.
