Episode Details

This week on Plot Twist, Please, we’re talking about the rise of the “reading police” on BookTok — from creators being accused of lying about the books they’ve read, to people analyzing pristine bookshelves, Goodreads goals, Fable stats, page counts, reading speeds, and whether anyone could possibly read 300+ books in a year.

 ✨ Today's cocktail: Meuse Strawberry Moon Fruited Belgian Witbier / Wheat Beer

 🎧 Tune in, sip with us, and remember — keep your glass, your bookshelf, and your TBR full. 🍸📖✨
