Lit Vibes Only
It's time for the ultimate Battle of the Book Besties! Kelsey and Amanda love books but absolutely hate each other's taste in them. While Amanda loves to read historical fiction and mystery/thrillers, you'll find Kelsey curled up with just about any romantasy. In their "Lit it or Quit It" episodes, they are forced to read the other's favorite books and then get into heated debates about them. Will they ever find a book they both love? Or is a happy ending not in the cards for them?
Listen in and choose whose side you're on! Or perhaps find yourself intrigued by a book you wouldn't normally go for. See you on Mondays!

Ep. 83: Lit It or Quit It: My Friends by Fredrik Backman
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Join Kelsey and Amanda, exhausted but hyped, as they discuss Fredrik Backman’s ‘My Friends’—an uncommon unanimous “lit it”! They break down Louisa and Ted’s train-trip frame story, the tragic backstory of four childhood friends behind a famous painting, and why Backman’s mix of grief, humor, and heart hit so hard, plus a few polarizing Goodreads takes to round it out as always.
