Lit Libations
by Kylie and Cori
Join us, Kylie and Cori, as we mix ourselves a drink, and do a medium dive into a variety of books! We don’t limit ourselves to any specific genre, and instead choose books based on popularity, personal favorites, and listener suggestions! Each book we cover will be split into 2 episodes, and for each episode, we recap the plot, with ample commentary and discussion. So it’s easy to follow along even if you’ve never read the book! To add to the fun, each episode we’ll be making a drink inspired by the half of the book that we’re reading! So happy listening, happy reading, and we hope you enjoy!
