Welcome back to Razzlefrat! This week we embrace how easily we—okay, mostly Ashtin—are influenced by the BookTok machine and tell you whether some of the most popular books on the platform are worth the hype. BUT we also have some hidden gems up our sleeves. Next time we’re discussing The Late Americans by Brandon Taylor and hope you’ll join us for the “Sally Rooney but in Iowa” vibes. Be sure to follow us in between episodes on our booksta accounts @grapes_of_ash and @theresinkonmyhands and also our joint account @razzlefratpod! Until next time, we bid you farewell. xoxo, Razzlefrat
