We're Parmiss and Maricarmen — two best friends who have spent most of 2020 coping with the world crumbling around them by reading a lot of romance novels. Like, so many. Since we have so much fun reading these books and talking about them with each other, we thought it would be fun to bring other people into the conversation! Thus, Read Cute was born—our beautiful podcast baby. We hope you enjoy!!
In this very cancellable episode, we talk about The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary with our friend Tiffani!! Since we have only recently remembered how to read and even more recently remembered how to record a podcast, we go on many tangents and we refuse to apologize for any of them. xx
Thanks to Tiffani for reading this book (twice) for the sake of our world famous pod. We love you!!

Kiss kiss!

We Briefly Forgot How to Read (The Love Hypothesis)
WEEEE'RE BACK!!! We've missed you, cuties! 🥰
We've been booked and busy (great alternate name for this podcast) but we finally hopped on a call to record and talk about the book-tok darling, The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood! Who doesn't love a woman in STEM and her simp? 🧬🧪

Head Over Heels
Hey, cuties!! Just a heads up: this week's book dealt with some heavier topics like sexual assault, intimate partner violence, and emotional abuse. If you're sensitive to those issues, we don't go into too much detail in the episode, but you may want to skip this book or be cautious when reading! Whether or not you decide to listen this week, we still love you :)
If you do decide to tune in, you'll get to hear our (mostly) coherent thoughts about the Olympics, world-class athletes, and the bare minimum expectation that men remember when you say something important about yourself. We recorded this in Mary's car on a day where the temperature nearly hit 100 degrees so you'll also get the chance to hear our brains melt in real time!

The Unhoneymooners
The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren passes the vibe check (we reread it and did not hate it the second time)
Reading about two people falling in love on a romantic honeymoon that was not meant for them turns out to be the perfect way to mentally escape a global pandemic!
Thank you to our bestiana Dede for joining us this week! Follow her on Insta @magical.days.ahead and TikTok @thatbookbabe 🥰

Red, White & Royal Blue
Happy birthday, America! We hope you can picture many cubes in your mind while listening to us drag the presidency AND the monarchy as institutions.
Thank you to @hellomorimoto for being our Stanford Blatch 🤩

The Jasmine Guillory Special
We're coming at you with not one, not two, but THREE books by Jasmine Guillory. We talk about The Wedding Date, The Proposal, and The Wedding Party. We hated not one, not two, but ALL THREE, oops.
Take a shot every time we go on a tangent unrelated to these books if you want to get as drunk as we were while recording the episode! Mazel!

People We Meet on Vacation
This episode of Read Cute is sponsored by Trader Joe’s Simpler Wines
(no, it isn’t, although it really should be!!)
Read Cute continues on our descent into madness with Miss Emily Henry. You’ll get to listen to us become tipsier in real time as we record, discuss the book that made Mary send unhinged texts, and you get to skip listening to our 1000-decibel screams when Aria and Parmiss mention vasectomies — we’re big fans.
We love hearing from y’all, and we’re always taking suggestions on books to cover! Reach out at @readcutepod 💌

Beach Read
For this special episode, Read Cute goes where we have never gone before......to Aria's apartment. We have our best friend Aria on the pod to discuss Beach Read by Emily Henry! Aria did her homework and fact checks us multiple times while talking about Michigan(?), lesbian bookstores, and girls misreading signs (tag yourself: we're girls)
Aria is the talented angel who drew our artwork!!! She's @hellomorimoto on Insta and TikTok, go follow and give her lots of (respectful, consensual) love.

Act Your Age, Eve Brown
WE'RE BACK, BESTIES!! We've missed you, we hope the feeling's mutual! 💘
We've been having so much fun hanging out in person lately since Parmiss moved home for the summer that we forgot how to read, but have no fear! We're excited to be back with our discussion of the youngest Brown sister, Eve!!
In this episode, Mary goes on a rant about personality tests, Parmiss pushes Mary to join an intermural sport, and we get #vulnerable.
As always, we love anyone who takes the time to listen to our humble pod!! Please DM us @readcutepod with suggestions for future books to cover!

Take a Hint, Dani Brown
This week, we're back with the complicated middle child of the Brown Sisters trilogy: Take a Hint, Dani Brown by Talia Hibbert!
Tune in to hear us simp on main, dream of men crushing us with their rugby thighs, and still maintain our prudish attitude toward reading sex scenes. Kings, Queens, and royalty in-between: our DMs are open. xo

The Ex Talk
Welcome to Read Cute!!
We're Parmiss and Maricarmen, two best friends who have spent most of the past year coping with the world crumbling around them by reading a lot of romance novels. Like, so many. Since we have so much fun reading these books and talking about them with each other, we thought it would be fun to bring other people into the conversation! Thus, Read Cute was born—our beautiful podcast baby.
On Read Cute, we'll discuss a different romance novel each week and give you our thoughts on the tropes, characters, and the brain worms each book does or does not elicit (don't worry—we'll also explain brain worms).
This week we're discussing The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon **there are spoilers in this episode**
Follow us on Instagram @readcutepod and let us know which books we should cover in future episodes! 📚😘
