NEW FORMAT ALERT! Your two favorite fake British friends have been SUPER busy. Too busy, in fact, to read the same bloody book. So they took some time to talk about two different books they read in a more concise format:

Making Friends with Monsters by Sandra Rostirolla (Kit's pick)

The Things We Leave Unfinished by Rebecca Yarros (Bridge's pick)

In the mood for a hefty mental health journey for a young boy in Australia? Or perhaps a modern-day romance laced with the high drama of a WWII storyline? Give these a whirl.

Pulitzer Prize winner and recently adapted by Netflix for a limited series, "All The Light We Cannot See" is a book that can change your life. Naturally, that meant Kit and Bridge had to register their official opinions in the form of cork ratings and a deep dive into the character's minds... exploring the tricky moral ground of a sympathetic Nazi character. But complex intellectual conversations aside, the booze does get to them and things do get a little silly toward the end. You won't want to miss it.

Spooky season and probiotics? Let's give it a go!

Kit and Bridge swap out their usual headwear for witch hats and stoke up the fires under their cauldrons as they get ready to embrace their inner witches. In The Once and Future Witches by Alix Harrow, your two favorite fake British friends discuss what bullshit it is that taking down the patriarchy requires so many bloody meetings, what "speechifying" means and why it should make a comeback into the modern vernacular, and how this tome of a book might benefit from a movie adaptation.
