this episode we wanted to give back by sharing our book recommendations for all your specific tastes - the good, the bad and the incredibly niche and freaky. we put out a question box and scoured the internet high and low to find book recommendations that will suit even the most specific of moods.

tastes explored:

  • a book that feels like the first days of soft autumn sunlight kissing your face
  • a book that feels like the period between grade 12 graduation and the beginning of the rest of your life
  •  the best book you’ll never read again
  • begging and pleading for more female led horror with cannabilism
  • books like sky daddy. freaky but like... kinda deep and beautiful??
