In this chaotic Valentine’s-themed episode of Happy Hour of the Book Bitches, we’re diving deep into Woman Down by Colleen Hoover — and let’s just say… we have thoughts. 👀

Georgia is fully convinced this book is rage bait, Christina is somehow connecting the dots to Ludacris (??), and Lucy the Standard Poodle makes multiple unplanned guest appearances. It’s unhinged. It’s passionate. It’s very on brand.

We break down the plot, the twists, the characters, and all the moments that had us questioning everything. Is Woman Down classic Colleen Hoover emotional chaos, or are we being personally attacked? You decide.

Our Drink of the Episode is the Twisted Muse, a Valentine’s-inspired cocktail that perfectly matches the dramatic energy of this book.

If you love Colleen Hoover book discussions, spicy book takes, chaotic best friend energy, and honest book reviews, this episode is for you.

Episode 14 of Happy Hour with the Book Bitches is here, and whew… this one took us OUT.

We’re breaking down Keep It in the Family by John Marrs, a dark, twisted psychological thriller that had both of us gasping, yelling, and immediately needing a drink. This book is a total wild ride packed with shocking secrets, messed-up family dynamics, and Chapter 39.

Our drink of the episode is “Chapter 39,” inspired by the moment that changed everything — because some plot twists require alcohol. 🍸

Join us as we gush, spiral, and unpack all the jaw-dropping moments, theories, and emotions this book put us through. If you love book club podcasts, thrillers, John Marrs novels, or drinking cocktails while talking about unhinged fiction, this episode is for you.
