This week has been tough, especially after the election results. There are a lot of people who are worried, stressed, and sad about the future.

But one thing you can be sure of is that this podcast is a safe space. Sam and Morgan have always read diverse books by diverse authors and have no plans to stop.

Regardless of your race, religion, or sexual orientation, you are welcome here. We want to create a community where everyone feels safe and accepted. This podcast is a place where everyone can have their voices heard. We believe that everyone should be allowed to share their stories and experiences. We strive to make this podcast an inclusive and welcoming space for all.

Spend some time taking care of yourself this week, whether it's walking, reading a book, or napping. It's important to remember that elections come and go, but the only thing that lasts is hope. We need to keep fighting for what we believe in even if it seems impossible to do so. We must remain hopeful that the future will be brighter.

"Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars." -Kamala Harris

So this week we decided to read something fluffy and romantic, and that book was It's Not Me, It's You by Alex Light! About The Novel:

Jackie Myers is a fraud. Or she might be a genius—the jury’s still out. The thing is, she secretly runs pleasebreakmyheart, a gone-viral account aimed at breaking hearts and ending relationships…. And she just used it to break up her insufferable eternal nemesis's picture-perfect relationship. Wilson is the buttoned-up, type-A assistant manager of her nightmares—but it turns out he’s also, apparently, a great boyfriend. So with her conscience (and paycheck) on the line, Jackie decides there’s only one thing to do: She’s going to help Wilson win his ex-girlfriend back. Which should be easy, considering Jackie hates him…right?
