Episode 10: Sponsored By Flintstones Gummies

Welcome back to I Reckon I’ll Read It, a podcast where two Okie gals talk books, share recs, and don’t hold back on their mighty big opinions. Join Beccah and Summer in some good-old-fashioned book talk.  This week, we kick things off with another Reading Roundup: two books we’ve finished, two we’re currently reading, and two that are up next. In this episode, we fully surrender to the holiday spirit with even more festive book recs (and a few decidedly not festive ones), plus a Spotlight Segment where we share what we’re hoping to see under the Christmas tree this year. Along the way, there’s an alarming number of references to the Ghost of (Reading) Past and far too much enthusiastic humming of the Flintstones theme song.
