It’s Podcast Tuesday!
Friends, we are so excited about today’s episode becauseย Erika and I are sharingย THE FIRST EPISODE OF OUR BESTIE BOOK CLUB!
Over the summer, so many of you asked us to do a podcast book club, so here it is. ย This month, we all read…
…Shari Lapena’s Not a Happy Family and today, we’re chatting about it.
Now, if you haven’t read the book and don’t plan on it, YOU CAN STILL LISTEN TO TODAY’S EPISODE because we do talk about other things non-book related. ย BUT if you do plan on reading it and/or are in the middle of it, DO NOT LISTEN TO TODAY’S EPISODE UNTIL YOU’RE FINISHED as we do discuss SPOILERS!!
Non book readers, we have content for you today, so go ahead and listen. ย It’s a fun episode filled with lots of girlfriend love and laughs!
You can listen to the episodeย HEREย or on your favorite podcast platform (iTunes, Spotify, etc).
As a reminder, so far this season weโve broken downย HAWAII,ย TRAVELING TOGETHER,ย BINGE WATCHING,ย FRIENDSHIP,ย BOTOX, BIKINIS, FITNESS, THE BESTIES, SOCIAL MEDIA,ย ENNEAGRAM,ย RECAPPED THE FIRST TEN,ย BACK TO SCHOOL, BIRTH, DIET, FALL, TIME and SLOW COOKERS, AIR FRYERS AND INSTANT POTS!
If you love us, please follow us on Instagramย @thebestiebreakdown, if you have reader questions, please email us atย thebestiebreakdown@gmail.comย and we love positive reviews! ย Please listen, love us and give us a great rating!
Enjoy today’s episode! ย I’ll see you guys tomorrow! xx

I always always listen to the new episode on Tuesday mornings when I get ready but Iโm
not done with the book yet ?? so Iโll have to wait a few more days until Iโm done! Canโt wait! Counting down the minutes to September Book Review post too! ???

When will you announce the book for next month? At the end of today’s podcast? I’d like to have plenty of time to read before the next book club podcast. . .thank you!
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! We announced it at the end of today’s podcast!!!

Thank you for starting the book club. I just finished the episode. I really enjoyed the book. My opinion was similar to Erika’s in that I like something that keeps me guessing, and is a bit of a thriller. Shay, you were so right that the characters were not really likeable, but I felt like it was layered enough and revealed throughout the book so I didn’t “dislike” them all right away. I’m not sure I would have read this book if not for the book club. Thanks for a great read!!

I’m EXCITED! Let’s do another book! ๐

Okay, I have to come back and comment after hearing the Podcast!! I loved it!
So, while I am typically completely 100% in line with my fellow 9, Ericka, this time, I’m so with you Shay. Not as into thriller (though enjoyed the suspense of the story), definitely not into gore (thankfully, the ‘uck’ factor passed quickly with the initial scene), and I want to like/love the character(s)!
I loved that you talked about which actors you see playing each main character. That was fun! Please keep that going.
And I would have loved knowing who exactly you thought did it and/or better alternate endings. It slumped at the end for me too.
I liked that you’re considering various genres. This next one seems pretty heavy too, so I wouldn’t mind a light-hearted chick lit book in the mix. (Looking at you, Shay!)
All that to say – already bought our next book, and I’m looking forward to it!
K.K. says
Ah, sorry, Erika (not Ericka!) Just noticed my mistake.
