Bookkish With Two K's
Bookkish With Two K’s is more than just a virtual book club, it’s a place for bookkish besties. In this community books are better than movies, reading under the covers with a flashlight is a shared childhood memory, and FYPs are full of book recs. Every two weeks we will discuss a new book, either selected by Kaitlyn and Kendra or voted on by the bookish members of our community. Whether it’s listening to our podcast or chatting with us on our community pages we want to create a home where book lovers can connect, fan-girl, and discuss their mutual obsessions. So kick up your feet, grab a good book, and join the club! ~ Kaitlyn and Kendra

While Colgan’s world-building perfectly captured the Christmas hustle and bustle, her characters sparked more of a tussle, leaving Kaitlyn with the cozy holiday sentiment of, “I wanted to punch everyone in the face.”
On a happier note, keep reading People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry, which will be airing on Monday, December 29th!

We’re finally here to settle this once and for all, this book is not chick-lit or women’s fiction; in actuality, it’s a romance and can also be found under the title Every Summer After;)
Just kidding…kinda. This is definitely a romance AND released well in advance of the novel “Every Summer After” which many believe to be a blatant ripoff of this Christina Lauren book.
Have you read them both? Let us know which one you like best!

Join us as we dive into Heartless Hunter, where instead of liberating witches alongside the Crimson Moth, we trail her through her parties and courtly flirtations. With magic that barely simmers, a romance that never sparks, and worldbuilding that contradicts itself more than the blood guard’s propaganda, we were left hexed, and not in a fun way.
In the end, the only thing truly hunted was our patience.
But we haven’t given up on fan...

If The Princess Bride and The Chronicles of Narnia had a happily-ever-after lovechild, we’re pretty sure it would be Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson.
