Sarah Hoover’s debut memoir, The Motherload, should be required reading for new moms, dads, and families alike honestly, it deserves a spot in every new parent tote handed out at the hospital. Raw, unflinching, and at times heartbreaking, it’s also deeply relatable for anyone navigating the whirlwind of early motherhood.

I especially recommend the audiobook; listening to Sarah felt like having a trusted friend right beside me. Her voice brings clarity and compassion to so many shared but often unspoken experiences from the complexities of caring for a newborn, to holding onto your identity, to redefining your relationship with your partner after delivery.

I absolutely loved my conversation with Sarah and truly could have talked with her for hours.

Anne-Sophie Jouhanneau joined me on the podcast and was an absolute blast! We dove into her latest thriller, We Would Never Tell a glitzy, addictive story packed with murder, mystery, and the complexities of girl code.

From celebrity culture to the art of crafting a gripping thriller, Anso brings such passion and dedication to her work and it truly shines on every page. This is the ultimate spring break read, perfect for devouring poolside or oceanside.

Beyond ecstatic to welcome the queen of all Swifties, Olivia Levin! You may know her from her iconic Taylor Swift fan account, swiftiesforeternity—and now, she’s stepping into a whole new era as an author.

Her debut is a true love letter: to the fandom, to the Swiftie community, and of course, to the queen herself, Taylor Swift. Olivia is uniquely qualified to tell this story—an early fan who’s been there since the very beginning, witnessing firsthand the meteoric rise and cultural force Taylor has become.

As someone who joined the fandom a little later, I can confidently say: I get it. And Olivia captures that magic perfectly.

In our conversation, we dive into the early days of Instagram, how she first discovered Taylor, and the journey that ultimately changed her life. She shares stories of meeting fellow Swifties, reflects on that ultra-famous podcast moment, and even teases her thoughts on the upcoming nuptials.

It’s a conversation I could have stayed in for hours because talking Taylor Swift with Olivia is just that fun.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan, newly enchanted, or just Swiftie-curious and ready to dip into the glittery pond, this book is absolutely for you. ✨
