EP. 55 - The Litty Sessions: Bingo, But Make It Bookish

It’s Libra season, our birthdays are around the corner, and we’re in full reflection mode. In this edition of The Litty Sessions, we built a Bookish Bingo grid and, in the process of playing, revisited books that made us laugh, spiral, whisper “damn,” and question our taste (see: the use of emojis by both hosts to indicate displeasure with certain books 👀 one of many ways we were perfectly in sync during this episode).


This episode is part strategy, part literary therapy, and all vibes. We talk about the stories that stuck with us, the ones that and the ones we wish we could unread.


Tap in, tag your squares, and tell us which one made you pause.

EP. 53 - Tsundoku & the Emotional Life of the TBR

Do you own more books than you’ll ever read? Same. This month on The Litty Podcast, we’re diving into Tsundoku, the art of collecting books and letting them stack up unread. From forgotten shelf candy to aspirational deep cuts, we explore why our TBRs hold so much emotional weight.


Plus: spicy confessions, literary self-awareness, and the one book that’s been loitering on your nightstand for months.


It’s not guilt, it’s a vibe. Tune in.

EP. 52 - The Litty Sessions: Are You the Drama? The Bookish Flags Exposé

What makes a red-flag reader? Is it buying books just for the aesthetic? Looking down on genre fiction? Declaring “books are boring” (🚩 immediate jail)?

In this episode, we lovingly roast the reading behaviors that raise eyebrows and celebrate the green flags that restore our faith in the bookish community.

From annotating gods to spoiler-hunting chaos agents, we unpack the book habits that say everything about you. Plus, one host shouts out their longtime crush (👀) on Ozoz Sokoh’s Chop Chop cookbook.


No matter your reading sins, we see you. We probably are you. Press play.

EP. 51 - The Litty Review: Juliet Takes a Breath

In Episode 51, we take on Juliet Takes a Breath by Gabby Rivera, and let’s just say, this one gave us plenty to talk about. Themes we expected hit harder than we thought, and unexpected revelations kept us on our toes.


We had our Eureka moments, cracked open some deeper layers, and found fresh angles on identity and self-discovery. The discussion took twists we didn’t see coming, and just when we thought we’d wrapped it all up, our closer question sent us down a fascinating scientific rabbit hole.


From fresh perspectives to unexpected detours, this conversation challenged us in ways we hadn’t anticipated. So buckle up and join us for the ride!

EP. 49 - The Litty Sessions: Little Joys, Big Feels & Simple Pleasures
Lately, life has been giving main character energy - well, mostly. In this episode, we dive into what’s sparking joy for us right now: the books we’re reading, the hobbies we’re loving, and the small things keeping us grounded. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Litty episode without a little side-eye, so we also get into what’s not sparking joy. Tune in for fun banter, real talk, and a reminder to find joy in the little things.

EP. 48 - The Litty Review: Chain-Gang All-Stars
In this month’s episode, we dive into the gritty, gut-wrenching world of Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah’s Chain-Gang All-Stars. From its searing critique of the prison industrial complex to its unforgettable cast of characters, this book packs a punch. But did it hit the mark for both hosts? It’s a passionate discussion as we unpack the book’s themes of systemic injustice, resilience, and the darker side of entertainment. Tune in to hear where we agreed, where we didn’t, and why Chain-Gang All-Stars is a book you won’t stop thinking about. Have you read it? Let us know what you think!
