2020 Bloopers

Did 2020 hurt you? No, this book did DANIELLE! This month we skimmed This Time Next Year by Sophie Cousens, a romcom without the rom OR the com. Fall into a pothole with us as we ship Minnie Cooper to Old Jersey where she meets Quinn and they snog, but also kinda just like doooooon’t. I wish I could give you any context, but there is none. Don your fish tie, eat your pie soup in a bread bowl, and join us with your favorite hot beverage! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIEEEEEEE! And happy 2021.

Scooby-Doo Season 45, Episode 4: Home Before Dark

New Brand Alert! Two gals sip COCKTAILS and chat books. In this episode, we rant and (briefly) rave about The Guest List by Lucy Foley. All the characters were drunk, so we decided to have a drink (or three), too... Alyssa reads a variety of reviews and dishes out the plot holes. Meanwhile, Katie is the mess in this episode and can’t stop burping, singing, and getting heated. So, grab your studio gremlin, sail to a conveniently stormy and remote island, and join us with your hot or alcoholic beverage (you might need it)!

Velocipastor: The Movie ft. Moostache Bob

Get ready for lots of positive grunting! *mic drop* This week, we dive into something that is right in our alley and up our wheelhouse: SHORT STORIES!! We each share one of our favorite pieces of short fiction and boy are they different. Katie covers the genre annihilator Carmen Maria Machado and her quiet “Horror Story.” Meanwhile, Alyssa babbles about the Lori Alice Munro-lore “semi-biotic” short story “People Like That are the Only People Here.” Are these our future selves?

We Are One of Her: Fangirling over Short Fiction

Hot spook-tacular diggity dang is this an exciting episode! We’re talking about The Sun Down Motel, a boo-ty shaking, diaper filling, paranormal, true-crime, women’s fiction novel written by fellow murderino Simone St. James, a.k.a Katie’s future self but sadly without a Wikipedia page. After giving a short background on St. James and her 18 day old novel, we show off our own expertise (we expertize?) in paranormal and true crime to talk about the blending of these genres! So take off those uncomfortable jeans, put on that diaper, and join us with your fav hot beverage and murderino spirit!

The Vivian... Wait, no, Claire? Motel

Where’d you go, plot hole? Where’d you go, frog facts? Where’d you go, ice cube? Not the freezer! But really, where did you go, Bernadette? This week we talk about the satirical (?) Maria Semple novel! Buckle up for a buttload of in-your-end-os and a wild ride to the south pole to meet Santa. We chat about the novel's form, voice, and library binding! But we promise it’s not as dull as it sounds. Take off those pants, grab your key-card, ice cube for your hot beverage, and join us on this cruise.

Where'd You Go, Sexual Innuendo?

Talented. Cunning. Strong. Stunning. These are all words you can use to describe us. Oh, and Evelyn Hugo. This week, we discuss Taylor Jenkins Reid’s The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo while sipping some GREEN tea, Hugo’s signature color. We may have minimal notes but fret not, we have many disagreements about this novel! From the title to the structure to where to purchase books, we don’t see eye to eye….or do we? #PoorCommunciationSkills.

The Seven Disa-green-ments of Evelyn Hugo

We are truly so excited to announce that we are finishing the Percy Jackson and the Olympian series with a bang...and some choking. We kindly choose which books to cut from the series after listing the RICK-diculous number of books Rick Riordan has written. Katie deeply insults Alyssa by saying she wouldn't tell her where she put her Achilles heel after telling her exactly where she put her Achilles heel. And we finish strong with frustration that Clarisse IS. NOT. BLONDE.  Follow our Insta @lit.tea.rary.podcast Send us book recommendations since we are finally done with the series at lit.tea.rary.podcast@gmail.com Check out our blog at sites.google.com/view/lit-tea-rary Practice safe text; use commas! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Percy Jackson and the Last Freaking Percy Jackson Episode

Can you navigate our Labyrinth of tangents to find the point? No? Neither can we! What we do know is that Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth is a-MAZE-ing just like our conversation about it. We twist and turn through some marketing info before Katie gives the most succinct TL;DR ever recorded (on this podcast). Then we lose Ariadne’s string completely and get lost in the depths of a teen love triangle - square? - and other key takeaways from the book.

Percy Jackson and the Labyrinth of Tangents

Our first guest! This week we interview our friend and fellow writer, Scott; or should we say, we're just rappin' yo. First, Scott perplexes us with his love of classics.
