Beach reads. Chick lit. Rom coms. The genre goes by many names, but there's usually one guarantee for each book: People are kissing (or something more) just about 50 percent into it. Katey Psencik and Abigail Rosenthal are journalists, former co-workers-turned-friends and romance fanatics who have been trading books for years. Join us for biweekly episodes, including a monthly book club discussion of our pick, as well as chats about new releases, what we love about the genre, HEAs, our favorite authors, recommendations, BookTok reactions and more.

Nina und Miriam diskutieren über Chick Lit - oder wie sie gerne sagen: den Schlager der Literatur. Gemeint sind die Romane mit den kitschigen Covers, die die Bestsellerlisten anführen, ohne dass jemand zugibt, dass er sie liest; das Genre, das das Feuilleton eiskalt ignoriert.Die beiden Podcasterinnen sind im wahren Leben Journalistinnen, Schlagerkolumnistinnen und Dauerleserinnen. Zusammen betreiben sie den Musikblog Rockette und den Buchladen Bookette, in dem alle besprochenen Bücher (und viele mehr) bestellt werden können.

In Pop Fiction Women we deep-dive into the complicated women of books, movies and TV shows, along with the women that bring them to life behind the scenes. Think Fleabag and Phoebe Waller Bridge, Normal People and Sally Rooney, and so much more. In each episode you can expect us to: * Break down the protagonist as we ask what makes her complicated? * Identify the best scenes, which can mean sweetest, funniest, or most badass. Anything we love. * Recount the cringiest scenes. The ones that make you squirm. Sometimes it's self-sabotage, sometimes it's growth, but it's always part of the process of becoming our complicated selves. * Play arm-chair therapist in What's Your Damage, Heather? An homage to the iconic line in Winona Ryder's Heathers, we discuss how these characters got to be the way they are. * 'What She Said' - the segment where we scour every essay and interview with the women behind the scenes and share some of our favorite first person quotes. Real life is as interesting as fiction here. * Look into our crystal ball and ponder where these characters are six months later and five years later. Typically, Kate gets very real and Carinn gets buck wild. * Provide a takeaway, aka that part in the podcast where we try to sound deep. We leave you with some parting wisdom, challenge each other with thought-provoking questions inspired by the work, and urge you to 'stay complicated.' more

Why does it seem like every book written for teen girls was about being rich and mean to each other? And why were we so obsessed with them? Each week best friends Clare and Courtney will unpack these questions while turning back the pages on the books we love to hate. Are you in or are you out? more
