Ep 34 🎃 1st Annual Halloween Special! AITA, Smash or Pass, and Nostalgic Favorites

10/29/24 • 88 min

Happy Halloween Book Besties! Today’s episode is all about one of our favorite holidays, and everything Liz and Ashley love about the spooky fall season!

We decided to put together the perfect taster episode of all your favorite treats, but made it Halloween themed... and we did it in silly wigs. Just because we can!

We answer a series of spooky questions like what our fave scary book, movie, Halloween treat, and costumes have been over the years so we can all get to know each other better. Then we do a fun series of reacting to Am I the A Hole Halloween themed Reddit threads, and end on an extended spooky rapid fire smash or pass session.

We hope you enjoy it, and have a Haaaaappyyy Halloweeeeeen! 🐦‍⬛

Welcome to Ashley & Liz’s spooky mini episode bonus series: Twilight!

If you’ve been following along and watched our “Why Vampires” episode then you know we’re fascinated with the lore and needed to be a part of this fandom! Just for the inside jokes alone...

As late high school and early college age gals, we missed the boat in exchange for studying, partying, and working, so we’re reading these FOR THE FIRST TIME as mid 30’s fantasy obsessed book podcasters. And we’re takin’ you all along for the ride!

Episode 1 covers book 1: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. The first five-ish minutes are spoiler free with our one sentence rapid star reviews. Then we jam pack this mini episode with an entire plot summary in five sentences, what our faves and fail characters and plot points are, our feelings, notable quotes, and end with a fun piece of Twilight Saga trivia.
