Buckle up, babes, we read 500 First Editions by Queen Maggie Gates this week! This is the final installment in the Romantics series and–spoiler alert–it might be her best book yet. Relationship coach Ryan Ford bets romance author Willow Winslet that he can make her fall in love with him in 12 weeks with his patented Ford Method. If he wins, she has to endorse his program. If she wins, he’ll stop podcasting. Any bets who who’ll win?SOS: Railed: A Why Cho-Cho-Choose Romance by Zane E.

We finally tackled Story of My Life by Lucy Score! Hazel, in a moment of desperation, impulse buys a house in an online auction.

When they finally arrive at their new home, they realize why Hazel got such a great deal on it… Perhaps the grumpy contractor who found them on the side of the road can help. SOS: Pollinated by the Plant Monster by Holly WildeUp Next: 500 First Editions by Maggie GatesWhat We’re Reading:Bewitched by the Fruit Bat King by Jamie DaltonTourist Season by Brynne Weaver (audio)Follow us on SpotifyWebsite: www.chicklitbookclubpodcast.comMerch: https://chicklitbookclubpodcast.threadless.com/TikTok: ChickLitBookClubInstagram and Threads: ChickLitBookClubPodcastPinterest: ChickLitBookClubPodcastBlueSky:@clbcpodcast.bsky.socialYoutube: @ChickLitBookClubEmail: chicklitbookclubpodcast@gmail.com#lucyscore #storyofmylife #romance novels

We’re going back to Vancouver this week to read the newest book from Stephanie Archer, The Wild Card: Vancouver Storm Book 5. This book centers around surly bar owner Jordan and Vancouver Storm head coach Tate Ward. The two have to pair up to keep the team from being sold to someone who might tear it apart, and with a little help from a 9yo girl, a feral cat, and an entire team of hockey players, Jordan and Tate eventually warm up to each other.SOS: Wacky by Nicole ParkerUp Next: Story of My Life by Lucy ScoreWhat We’re Reading:The Witch’s Wolf by Heather K.

Somehow, we’ve been doing this podcast for five whole years. Who gave us the audacity? No one. We took it. We’ll discuss the past year’s bests and favorites, both on and off the podcast. We read some real bangers this year and we’re not sorry in advance for crying during this episode.Up Next: An Offer from a Gentleman by Julia Quinn and Part 1 of Bridgerton Season 4What we’re reading:Tough Guy - Rachel ReidThe Long Game - Rachel ReidThe Seer of Pembleton Falls - HF PayneFollow us on SpotifyWebsite: www.chicklitbookclubpodcast.comMerch: https://chicklitbookclubpodcast.threadless.com/TikTok: ChickLitBookClubInstagram and Threads: ChickLitBookClubPodcastPinterest: ChickLitBookClubPodcastBlueSky:@clbcpodcast.bsky.socialYoutube: @ChickLitBookClubEmail: chicklitbookclubpodcast@gmail.com

This week we read Game Changer and Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid, THEN we watched Heated Rivalry on HBO. We don’t even know what to say here except that it’s amazing. Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams are both brilliant. We’re stuck at the cottage and that’s a problem we never ever want to go away. What we’re reading:Fire in his Blood - Ruby DixonClaimed by the Mothman - KA BowerProvoking Saint Nick - Echo GrayceFollow us on SpotifyWebsite: www.chicklitbookclubpodcast.comMerch: https://chicklitbookclubpodcast.threadless.com/TikTok: ChickLitBookClubInstagram and Threads: ChickLitBookClubPodcastPinterest: ChickLitBookClubPodcastBlueSky:@clbcpodcast.bsky.socialYoutube: @ChickLitBookClubEmail: chicklitbookclubpodcast@gmail.com
