Your book besties are back, and this time… we’ve got thoughts. In this week’s episode, Amanda and Kat buddy read Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice by Katie Cicatelli-Kuc, a YA seasonal romance with big Barnes & Noble promo energy—and not a lot else. Is it cute? Maybe. Is it cozy? Sort of. Is it secretly a middle school book disguised as a fall-themed romcom? Absolutely.
We talk about mismatched marketing, the "new kid in town" trope, and the ongoing epidemic of miscommunication in YA romance. We also get a little ranty about Gilmore Girls comparisons, sticker covers, and how many times one character can whine about a pumpkin spice latte.
Plus:
- The truth about PSLs
- When covers lie
- What makes a real mother-daughter story
- Audiobook speeds that might actually break your brain
- And of course… Trope Talk is back!
