Hello, hello! Before we talk books today, we’re sharing an update about the July book club pick (from Emily again!) and a mini-update about our summer merch. Exciting things! Stay tuned to hear us reflect on some of our oldest clothing items (shoutout to Soffe shorts, our old faithfuls). And for today’s book talk, we’re doing something out of character, and chatting about lots of memoirs! Tune in to hear about two comedy memoirs, one memoir about gender exploration, and a buzzy, highly anticipated new thriller. Thank you for listening, we love you!
