ATTENTION: SPOILER for Chapter 11!
Candice is recovering from a cold so the sisters no longer sound like one person podding alone. The girlies learn that there is no better coattail to ride than Taylor Swifts.
In Bookalytics, we find that Bookalicious is WORLD WIDE with up to 1 listener across 7 countries. Chrissy correctly identifies our target audience - Slow Readers of TikTok, and Candice commits to making as many pop-culture references as possible #Britney #TheWomaninMe
Chrissy sped-read half of the book anticipating we would get to Chapter 18. The girlies fall 10 chapters short and only reach to Chapter 8.
We pick up with Calvin & Elizabeth falling in nerd-love. Chrissy realizes that she might be the obnoxious in-love couple that gives Candice acid reflux. We learn that Calvin has some head sniffing tendencies a la President Joe Biden. We meet the peanut gallery that is full of the geodudes (i.e. rocks for jocks geologists) + the Tonya-Harding-Miss-Frask. Chrissy gets a history lesson of the drama that was the 1998 Ice Skating Olympics
Chrissy does her best to speed the process up, but Candice's notes end up with her reading the entirety of Chapter 7. Chrissy gets the last laugh as Candice had the pleasure of editing this very long episode.
