About Read a Friggin' Book

Read a Friggin’ Book is a mother-daughter podcast where bonding meets books and banter. Each episode, we dive into a young adult fiction novel, reviewing the drama, the tropes, the twists, and the cringe with a healthy dose of humor (and occasional eye rolls). What started as a compromise to delay social media turned into our favorite way to connect: over stories, sass, and sarcastic commentary. Whether you’re a fellow YA fan or just here for the laughs, we’ve got a seat saved for you. 📚 Follow us on Instagram @readafrigginbookpod or join the fun on Facebook at Read a Friggin Book. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
