Book Squad Goals

Looking for a book club but don't have time to squeeze real-life meetings into your schedule? Join Book Squad Goals, a bi-weekly podcast about—you guessed it—books, plus all the garbage pop culture we consume when we’re not reading (that’s what our “othersodes” are for!). While you’re paying attention, check out our website & blog at booksquadgoals.com, where we have weekly posts about books, pop culture, and probably our pets. We love our pets.

Othersode #27: Putdownable: A Hatepisode / A Stranger in the House

Grab a drink because you’re gonna need it. It’s time for our second #Hatepisode, featuring “A Stranger in the House” by Shari Lapena. We discuss the bonkers plot, the cardboard characters, and the oh-my-goodness-it’s-so-bad writing. Then we dig into some reviews so you don’t just take our word for it. Everything gets way better after that because it’s also our second BIRTHDAYSODE! Listen as we exchange gifts and tell each other how awesome we are. Read along for our next #Bookpisode, a book we think you’ll actually like, with “An Absolutely Remarkable Thing” by Hank Green. On our next #othersode, it’s our first ever #travelsode as the #BookSquad heads to New Orleans! Follow us on social media and don’t forget to rate, review and subscribe!
