This week on The Book Fix, we’re reviewing Muscles & Monsters by Ashley Bennett, a cozy monster romance that combines gym culture, supernatural creatures, and a very sweet love story.

The book follows Tegan, a cake decorator whose day goes completely off the rails when a wedding cake disaster leaves her scrambling—until she’s helped by Atlas, a massive wolven who works at Leviathan Fitness. After their chaotic first meeting, Atlas invites Tegan to the gym anytime she needs help lifting her cakes. Instead, Tegan decides she wants to lift them herself and signs up for a membership to build her strength.

As the two spend more time together at the gym, their friendship quickly turns into attraction. Between workouts, flirtation, and some very primal monster instincts, Tegan and Atlas begin exploring what a relationship between a human and a monster could really look like.

But this episode also marks the debut of a brand new segment: The Bake Fix. Inspired by Tegan’s cake decorating skills, we attempted to bake a cake that looks exactly like the cover of the book… and honestly, the resemblance is uncanny.

Join us as we talk monster romance, gym monsters, and reveal our Bake Fix creation. 🍰💪🐺

On this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dive into the dark, seductive world of The Ever King by L.J Andrews! It's a villain romance where vengeance comes first and feelings come wayyyyy later. We’re talking pirates, sirens, fae, and Vikings colliding in a revenge-driven fantasy that does not play nice.

Erik, the scarred and ruthless king of the Ever Kingdom, has spent years plotting revenge against the man who stole his crown and condemned him to a watery prison. When his enemy’s daughter accidentally frees the Ever, Erik seizes the opportunity by using her as a pawn in his brutal plan. She’s innocent. He’s dangerous. And the line between revenge and desire starts to blur fast!

This week on The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli are diving headfirst into Blackthorn by J.T. Geissinger which is a gothic, enemies-to-lovers romance dripping with revenge, secrets, and a STRONG “touch her and die” energy. When Maven Blackthorn returns to her cursed hometown for her grandmother’s funeral, she finds herself pulled back into a blood feud, a missing body, and the one man she should never want again: Ronan Croft was her first love and her family’s sworn enemy. What starts as unresolved tension quickly spirals into obsession, betrayal, and twist after twist that refuses to let you breathe.

We’re talking shady heroes, grumpy-on-grumpy chaos, forbidden attraction, dark magic vibes, and a romance that keeps flipping the script. Is this love? Is it vengeance? Is it both? And most importantly… did this book fix our lives or absolutely wreck us?!

In this week’s episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli unpack Beautiful Beast, Neva Altaj’s mafia-dark-romance twist on Beauty and the Beast. Our “beauty” is Vasilisa, a genius hacker who gets kidnapped by Rafael who is a scarred, ruthless mafia kingpin. He needs her to fix his compromised systems which she may or not have a hand on, oops! What should’ve been a simple captor-captive standoff becomes messy fast when Rafael finds himself obsessed with her brain, her bravery, and… everything else.

As Vasilisa fights to protect her family and outsmart the monster holding her, the line between danger and desire blurs. The hosts break down the tension, the possessive-hero moments, the hacker-girl power, and whether this fairytale retelling really gives us love beyond appearances, or just a beast who refuses to let his beauty go.

On this week’s episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli say goodbye to spooky season with their final round of Reddit Paranormal stories. The episode starts with a hilarious tangent about Unfriended before diving into eerie tales—a woman who claims angels visit her nightly, a couple haunted by strange noises and choking sensations in their old house, and a mimic that perfectly imitates family voices. Between the chills, the hosts open up about their own creepy experiences—dissociation, sleep paralysis, and why you’ll never catch them “lacking.” As always, there’s plenty of laughter, chaos, and comfort in knowing they’re scared together. Spooky season may be over, but The Book Fix ends it on the perfect note: terrified, laughing, and ready for a new theme next month.

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dive into Caitlin Starling’s newest gothic horror, The Starving Saints—a fever dream of faith, hunger, and madness set in the Aymar castle. We begin with a full breakdown of the novel: Aymar Castle has been under siege for six months, with food and hope nearly gone. Just as desperation sets in, salvation appears in the form of the Constant Lady and her Saints—divine, godlike figures who somehow enter the sealed fortress.

On this week's episode of The Book Fix podcast, Yajaira and Cheli dive into r/Paranormal for a candle-lit scare session that starts with bravado and ends with both of us begging for cartoons before bed. We read a chilling La Llorona experience from a U.S. service member stationed in Honduras: nightly sobbing at 3:00 a.m., a voice whispering from the dark, chickens exploding into squawks—and a near-miss on the flight line days later. We trade legends and family lore (streams, red-painted doors and windows, and a woman sweeping on the roof at 2 a.m.—absolutely not), then unpack these stories together. Join us and send us your own paranormal experiences!

In this episode of The Book Fix Podcast, we dive into My Ex, the Antichrist by Craig DiLouie, a twisted blend of love story, horror, and apocalypse. The novel follows Lily Lawlor, a punk musician whose life and career are forever tied to her former bandmate and ex, Drake Morgan—a man who just might be the antichrist. From the chaos of a deadly Battle of the Bands in 1999, to Lily’s shocking murder confession a decade later, and finally to her decision to break her silence in the present day, the story unfolds like a dark oral history. Through interviews, confessions, and blurred lines between faith, fear, and memory, DiLouie crafts a tale where heartbreak collides with prophecy, and where we’re left wondering: how much of it is true?

Join us as we unpack the novel’s unique structure, its exploration of love and destruction, and the way DiLouie blends punk rock grit with apocalyptic dread. And of course, listen in to hear whether My Ex, the Antichrist fixed our lives—or not.

This week on The Book Fix podcast, hosts Yajaira and Cheli lean into spooky season with a cozy-yet-creepy episode full of Reddit-paranormal reads and personal eerie moments. They open with light, relatable banter about being the “paranoid” vs. the “stoic” friend, then dive into listener posts and neighborhood hauntings — from a lamp that turns on by itself in a church to unexplained doors, printers, and footsteps at an old workplace. The conversation moves from amused skepticism to genuine chills as the hosts read an account of a haunted elder-care home (Victorian “woman in white,” shadow figures, and unexplained presences around deaths) and a terrifying Reddit post about waking up with the sensation of someone sitting on your back.

In this week’s episode of The Book Fix, we’re diving into the world of Reddit’s Paranormal community—and adding a bit of a twist with our own personal stories. We sift through eerie posts that blur the line between dream and reality, from a haunting encounter with a dead relative quietly sipping tea, to the spine-tingling sensation of an unseen presence sinking into the edge of a mattress.

As we react to these stories, we pause to share our own unexplainable moments—those strange, goosebump-inducing experiences we’ve carried with us for years. Was it imagination, coincidence, or something beyond the veil?

In this episode of The Book Fix, we review Gus Moreno’s This Thing Between Us, a horror novel that weaves supernatural dread with raw grief. After Thiago and his wife Vera purchase the Itza smart speaker, strange occurrences escalate—cold spots, eerie music, and unsettling late-night whispers. When Vera suddenly dies, Thiago is left shattered, navigating unwanted sympathy, public exploitation of her death, and the unnerving sense that the Itza isn’t done with him. Seeking escape, he retreats to a remote cabin in Colorado, only to discover that grief and something far darker have followed. Both terrifying and heartbreaking, the novel explores how love, loss, rage, and technology intertwine in ways that feel inescapable.

In this chilling episode of The Book Fix, we dive into Stephen Graham Jones’ haunting novella Mapping the Interior. Blending horror with sharp commentary on identity, grief, and family, this story takes listeners deep into a house that’s far more than it seems.

The book follows a fifteen-year-old boy who one night glimpses a figure moving through his home—someone who looks eerily like his late father, who died mysteriously years earlier. As the boy follows the apparition, he uncovers unsettling truths: the house is larger, stranger, and darker than he ever realized. Determined to chart its shifting rooms and corridors, he begins “mapping the interior,” but his exploration soon entangles his younger brother in terrifying danger. What starts as a desperate attempt to connect with his father becomes a harrowing journey of sacrifice, survival, and the heavy cost of protecting family.

On this week's Thursday episode of The Book Fix podcast, we dive into a spooky story! Spooky season rolls on, and we’re dressed as psychics (one of us fully channeling young Walter Mercado lol) to cold-read a r/NoSleep story titled “There’s an Extra Hand in My Kids’ Photos” by Blair Daniels. This stoory is about a family’s cute photo session that turns sinister—mystery hands in the pictures. Between goosebumps and giggles, we swap our own family brujería tales (corn husk toe charm?!), talk sleep paralysis vs. the supernatural, and ask whether pouring energy into fear invites it closer!

On this week's Tuesday episode, The Book Fix is officially kicking off spooky season, and what better way to start than with Freida McFadden's thriller Do Not Disturb, where a snowy night, an isolated motel, and a mysterious owner turn a fugitive’s escape into something far more sinister. Quinn Alexander has committed an unthinkable crime—and she’s not planning on sticking around to face the consequences. On the run and headed for the northern border, a sudden snowstorm forces her to take shelter at the remote Baxter Motel. The owner, Nick Baxter, seems charming enough, but the place has a disturbing history and an unsettling presence in the house across the way—Nick’s ailing wife, always watching from the window.

This week's Tuesday episode on The Book Fix, we dive into The Fallen & The Kiss of Dusk, the latest installment in Carissa Broadbent’s Crowns of Nyaxia series. When Mische sacrifices everything to save those she loves, she plunges the world into eternal night and falls into the grasp of the gods. Meanwhile, Asar—imprisoned, consumed by revenge, and desperate to find her—gets one final chance at redemption when a goddess offers them a dangerous bargain: steal the power of the god of death so Asar can ascend to true divinity.

We follow Asar and Mische through mortal and immortal realms, battling ruthless enemies and crossing paths with old allies as the underworld teeters on collapse and the gods prepare for war. But in a game ruled by vengeful gods and ancient betrayals, some debts might be too great for even love to repay. We’ll talk twists, heartbreak, slow-burn romance, and whether the ending left us gasping or growling!

This week's Thursday on The Book Fix, we’re cracking open A Spell to Wake the Dead, a witchy YA thriller that drips with eerie Cape Cod atmosphere, murder, and magic gone wrong. When Mazzy and her best friend Nora sneak to the beach one moonlit night to cast a spell, they expect nothing more than a little harmless witchcraft. Instead, the tide delivers the mutilated body of a woman missing her hands and teeth — and a supernatural connection they can’t explain. Unable to leave the mystery to the police, the girls dive into spells and divination, uncovering a string of disappearances spanning years. As ghostly whispers grow louder and visions blur reality, a second body surfaces, pulling them deeper into danger.

In this brutally honest episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dig deep into their previous tier lists and revisit the books they’ve given one-star ratings to. From cringey plots to characters they’d like to leave in a ditch (fictionally, of course), the hosts pit these literary letdowns against each other in head-to-head battles to determine which one is the least offensive of the bunch. It’s a hilarious showdown of “lesser of two evils” as they eliminate the worst of the worst until they crown one unfortunate book as the ultimate survivor. Tune in to find out which one-star book barely made the cut—and which ones get dragged for filth.

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dive into Caught Up by Navessa Allen, the second book in the Into Darkness trilogy. After reviewing Lights Out, they’re back for more of Allen’s deliciously dark, kink-forward romance—and this one does not disappoint. Or does it? They unpack the story of Nico “Junior” Trocci, a morally gray character who once distanced himself from sweet, bookish Lauren Marchetti… only to spiral into full-blown obsession when he discovers the grown-up version of her is anything but shy. Is Caught Up a worthy continuation of Allen’s viral trilogy? Tune in to hear if this book fixed Yajaira and Cheli's life—or if it failed to deliver on its promises.

They discuss the rivals-to-lovers tension between Alice and Hayden, two writers vying to tell the life story of reclusive heiress Margaret Ives. As the hosts dig into the layers of mystery, romance, and literary ambition, they debate who was more compelling: the scandal-ridden subject or the authors unraveling her secrets. Yajaira praises Henry’s signature banter and emotional depth, while Cheli questions whether the romance overshadowed the biographical intrigue. With spoilers, swoons, and suspicions, they ask: did Great Big Beautiful Life fix their lives—or leave them longing for a better ending?

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli put their friendship (and memory) to the test with a chaotic round of “Guess the Book by the Emoji.” Each host picked a few books they've read together and turned the plot into a string of emojis—but things quickly spiral as their emoji interpretations get... questionable.

From surprisingly accurate guesses to complete confusion (and some very creative symbolism), this episode is full of laughs, misfires, and one unforgettable camel moment.

Can you figure out the books before they do? Play along and see if this emoji game fixed their lives—or just broke their brains.

They break down Freya’s high-stakes journey as she grapples with the weight of her divine magic and the bloody prophecy tied to it. With war on the horizon and betrayals still fresh, Freya must keep her enemies close—including Bjorn, the man who was sent to kill her and who also happens to be the man who broke her heart. As the girls unpack the tension, the longing, and the emotional damage, they question whether this romance has the foundation to survive divine meddling and political war games.  Will A Curse Carved in Bone fix lives—or ruin it?

They discuss the book’s slow-burn romance, its enemies-to-lovers tension, and the dark, high-stakes world where political alliances and ancient curses collide. As the hosts follow the princess—who goes from obedient daughter to reluctant bride to a warrior in her own right—they unpack how Devney Perry blends fantasy tropes with emotional depth and character growth. And of course, they ask the ultimate question: does Shield of Sparrows fix anything for them—or is it just another fantasy trying to fly too high?

From five-star favorites to books that left them speechless—in a bad way—they revisit standout titles like The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Two Twisted Crowns, Beneath These Cursed Stars and Sunrise on the Reaping. They relive their most unhinged reactions, recall the spiciest (and cringiest) book boyfriends, and laugh through the titles that made them question their life choices.

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli trade their books for popcorn to review the film adaptation of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. They unpack everything from Snow’s villain origin (and questionable hair choices) to the chaotic music numbers, awkward romance, and surprisingly stacked cast. Did the movie make us care more about Coriolanus? Was Lucy Gray giving main character energy or just vibes and vocals? And why did it feel like three different movies in one? Tune in as the girls break down what worked, what dragged, and whether this prequel actually earned its place in the Hunger Games universe—or just sang too many songs.

Did Lucy Gray deserve better? And what was up with all that singing?? Tune in as they unpack the slow burn (literally) of Snow’s villain arc, the book’s commentary on control and spectacle, and whether this prequel hit the right notes—or just dragged its feet through the mud.

In this emotional and chaotic episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli sit down for a girly deep dive into Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2. This isn’t your typical plot breakdown—this is a full-on catharsis session about missed moments, emotional damage, and all the bread Peeta should have brought into the arena. The hosts reflect on Katniss’s awkward rise as a revolutionary symbol, Gale’s war crimes (allegedly), and how Peeta's hijacking storyline was more brutal onscreen than they ever expected.

They debate whether the movies needed to be split into two parts, roast the lack of screen time between Katniss and Peeta (again), and fantasize about a Hunger Games x Love Island crossover hosted by Caesar Flickerman. The girls also gush over Effie’s upgraded role and surprise kiss with Haymitch, mourn Finnick’s rushed and senseless death, and, of course, spiral into laughter and rage over that emotionally cold baby-filled epilogue.

Despite their critiques, one thing is clear: these movies still hold up. Whether they’re clowning Gale, defending Peeta’s every move, or yelling “REAL,” this episode is for the girlies who still haven’t emotionally recovered from The Hunger Games.

In this episode of their Hunger Games deep dive, Yajaira and Cheli take on Mockingjay—and they do not hold back. From the rushed character deaths (Finnick deserved a full chapter, not a sentence) to the lack of meaningful dialogue between Katniss and Peeta, the hosts question why the emotional payoff just wasn’t there. Katniss choosing Peeta makes sense, but where was the scene where they talked it out? Where was the slow-burn reconnection? And why was Haymitch the only one she seemed to emotionally bond with? Join the besties as they discuss whether or not this was a proper ending to the trilogy!

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli continue their Hunger Games deep dive with a chaotic, passionate breakdown of Catching Fire (2013). The episode kicks off with a spirited conversation about bread (or the shocking lack of it from Panem’s most famous baker), before diving into everything from sourdough dreams to Peeta’s missed opportunities to be a true himbo hero.

They reflect on Katniss kissing Gale way too much, Peeta being the ultimate damsel in distress, and all the key moments the movie left out—like the iconic medicinal plant book scene and the loss of Peeta’s leg. The girls also demand more vulnerability from Katniss, more strength from Peeta, and more context for why their characters live in fancy houses now.

Of course, things derail into talk about dating short kings, catching the ick, workplace cringe, and whether it’s even possible to hate a movie that meant so much to them growing up. They may have complaints, but this one still gets a nostalgic 5 out of 5. Snow may be obsessed with their love story, but Yajaira and Cheli are obsessed with this movie.

In this episode of The Book Fix podcast, Yajaira and Cheli dive into the second installment of The Hunger Games trilogy, Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. Picking up after Katniss and Peeta’s shocking win in the 74th Hunger Games, the hosts discuss how their defiant act with the berries didn’t just save their lives—it sparked unrest across the districts. Join the besties as they discuss whether or not the sequel was better than the first book!

In this episode of The Book Fix, hosts Yajaira and Cheli dive headfirst into the cinematic world of The Hunger Games (2012) following their recent reread of the book. They ditch the plot recap to focus instead on the gritty film style, casting choices, and all the small (and not-so-small) differences between book and screen. From the shaky camera work that left them dizzy, to Jennifer Lawrence’s stoic portrayal of Katniss, they compare the emotional richness of the book to the movie’s more muted tone.

The duo gets especially animated over missed opportunities—like Katniss’s musical talents being downplayed, Peeta’s love being underdeveloped, and the absence of iconic lines like “the boy with the bread.” They also touch on the awkward shift from book’s slow-burn romance to the movie’s blink-and-you-miss-it kisses. Bonus? An unhinged tangent about types of bread, platform Converse, and Snow’s bald-headed crimes.

Whether you're team "Gale was unnecessary" or just here to roast the Capitol, this episode is a nostalgic, chaotic tribute to the movie that launched a dystopian generation. And yes—Snow's still a bitch. Catch you next Thursday for Catching Fire!

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli crack open their reread of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, and it’s a mix of chaos, nostalgia, and bread-fueled sarcasm. They reflect on the book’s most emotional and iconic moments—from Rue’s tragic death and Katniss’ symbolic rebellion to Peeta’s dramatic mud camouflage and the Capitol’s twisted game rules. They dive into Katniss’ slow emotional processing, the awkward song lyrics, and the lack of dialogue that made this reread feel hollow than they remembered. Still, the themes and structure held strong, even if the romance felt like an act—and not just to the Capitol.

The hosts break down the magical, high-stakes chaos of the Enchantra tournament, where tokens, betrayals, and televised death matches keep everyone on edge. They follow Genevieve and Rowington’s slow-burn-to-obsession romance, complete with emotional confessions, fake marriage realness, and a soul crushing sacrifice that had the girls SCREAMING.

In this reflective episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli respond to a listener's question about the books that shaped them as children. They start by unpacking their reading habits today, from the struggle of book slumps and bulk reading to the tools that help them reset—like cinematic playlists, 20-page test runs, and audiobooks during long commutes.

The conversation shifts to childhood reads, where they reminisce about series like Junie B. Jones, Magic Tree House, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, and The Boxcar Children. They also revisit their experience with darker books like A Child Called It and Flowers in the Attic—stories that left a lasting impact, but not necessarily in a good way. The duo also breaks down their recent attempt to revisit Cirque du Freak and its movie adaptation, which sadly didn’t hold up to the magic they remembered. Join in the conversation by letting everyone know which books shaped you growing up!

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli take a break from book reviews to dive headfirst into the absurd tier list of different ways women have died in old literature. From “flirting headaches” to “garden troubles” and the infamous “beautiful chestnut hair,” the girls try to make sense of these ridiculous causes of death, rating them from most to least believable. Along the way, they share personal stories (including a traumatic ice cream incident), roast historical misogyny, and debate the dangers of having too many pillows. This episode is equal parts social commentary and unhinged fun—and somehow still ends with a sincere PSA about hand warmers and avoiding the River of Unhappiness.

When Sarah, a high-powered defense attorney, finds out her husband Adam is arrested for murdering his mistress, she takes on the case herself—cue all the messy secrets, courtroom drama, and suspicious characters.

With only a marker, a whiteboard, and a very questionable understanding of anatomy, each host takes turns drawing stick-figure scenes from popular books while the other tries to guess the title. From hilariously vague scribbles to almost fighting, this episode is full of laughter, wild guesses, and unexpected masterpieces.

In this emotionally packed episode, Yajaira and Cheli dive into Say You'll Remember Me by Abby Jimenez—a book that lured them in with its cute cover but hit hard with its portrayal of grief, family caregiving, and emotional burnout. While the romance is present, it quickly becomes clear that this story is also about the quiet battles happening behind closed doors.

The hosts reflect on the heavy themes woven into the story, including the realities of long-distance relationships, the emotional toll of caretaking, and the ways trauma can linger in everyday life. They especially connect with the book’s portrayal of family chaos, tender moments, and unexpected wisdom (like how food can fix more than just hunger).

From tearful scenes to unexpected laughs (and even a conversation about IRS debt and ugly crying on TikTok), this episode mixes heartfelt reflection with classic Book Fix humor. They also respond to one-star and five-star Goodreads reviews—and they definitely have thoughts.

Abby Jimenez, if you’re listening… next time, maybe warn us better.

In this emotionally charged and unfiltered episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli revisit the Powerless trilogy by Lauren Roberts, a series that famously divided them as readers. What started as a five-star experience for Cheli quickly unraveled into heartbreak and disillusionment—"I lived, I laughed, I loved, I cried... and then you told me it sucked." From drunk filming confessions ("We had to start over—we were just going on tangents!") to cringing over Kai’s tragic one-liners ("I guess the beast doesn't get the beauty"), the duo reflects on how the series spiraled from promise to confusion.

They break down the books from Powerless to Fearless, questioning the purpose of the trials, the ever-shifting love triangle, and the disappearance of key characters like Mac. Whether you’re a #PowerlessStan or just here for the drama, this episode promises hot takes, unresolved feelings, and the occasional poppy field meltdown.

In this fun and unfiltered episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli face off in a hilarious, chaotic, and surprisingly heartfelt tournament to crown the ultimate romance trope. From classics like second chance romance and beauty and the beast to the more controversial step-sibling crush and the bet, the hosts debate each trope's merits—and cringe-factor—with personal anecdotes, dramatic examples (hello, fanfiction and Twilight), and passionate rants.

As the bracket unfolds, they eliminate tropes that feel outdated, problematic, or just plain tired (RIP Insta Love and boss/employee romance) while gushing over their favorites (Grumpy x Sunshine and forced proximity). 

They also take a moment to plug their book club pick (Enchantra by Kaylie Smith), their Patreon and Ko-fi, and share their current fixations—Resident Evil and Hello Kitty Island Adventure, naturally.

Tune in for bookish banter, unfiltered opinions, and a reminder that yes, they may have John Mayer’d a few of the matchups—but it was all in good fun.

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli review The Strawberry Patch Pancake House by Laurie Gilmore, the fourth book in the Dream Harbor series. They dive into the signature “insta-love” setup the series is known for—and question whether it ever really works for them.

The book follows Archer, a Michelin-starred chef living in Paris, who’s suddenly called to Dream Harbor to raise a daughter he didn’t know existed after the mother passes away. Enter Iris, a yoga instructor who ends up becoming Olive’s nanny—not because she’s qualified, but because small-town connections and financial need make it happen.

In this cozy and slightly chaotic book chat episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli kick back for another heart-to-heart about all things books, friendship, and feelings. They reflect on how nice it is to create content without the pressure of speed-reading, and how their dynamic has grown since the early, rigid days of their podcast. With zero structure and maximum vibes, the two hosts talk about the quotes that have emotionally wrecked them, the books that have made them cry in traffic, and the weird comfort of screaming into a steering wheel while listening to an audiobook.

They dive into horror reads and discuss which books would make great film or TV adaptations—including The Devil Takes You Home, Confessions, and Episode 13. But it’s not all praise—Yajaira confesses which reads she wishes she had DNF’d (100% Match, anyone?), while Cheli wishes her bestie would appreciate Angels Before Man the way she does.

In this special book chat episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli sit back, reminisce, and reflect on the books that changed them, frustrated them, or simply vanished from memory. The conversation kicks off with a big question: can a deep book chat with your best friend fix your life? Spoiler alert — they think yes.

Throughout this cozy conversation, they unpack:

• The chaos and glory of reading four books in a weekend
• Why their dual memory recall is unmatched
• The books that started slow but ended in obsession (hello, Six of Crows and Invocations)
• Their “bury me with this book” favorites like The Bridge Kingdom, Shatter Me, Divine Rivals, and Serpent and the Wings of Night
• Their eternal struggle with insta-love and the desperate need for a good slow burn

Yajaira and Cheli also spill on their note-taking habits, voice memos, and how their reading tastes have evolved through the podcast. Whether you're a book lover or just here for the bestie banter, this episode will feel like a warm hangout with your favorite reading duo.

In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dive into Written in the Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur, a sapphic rom-com that blends fake dating, opposites attract, and holiday charm into a heartfelt love story.

Elle Jones, a free-spirited astrologer, has built her career around helping others find love, but her own romantic life is a mess. When she’s set up on a blind date with Darcy Lowell—a buttoned-up, no-nonsense actuary—it’s clear they are complete opposites. The date is a disaster, but Darcy, desperate to get her well-meaning brother off her back, convinces Elle to fake a relationship through the holidays. In exchange, Elle agrees, hoping to prove to Darcy that love isn’t just about logic—it’s about chemistry, fate, and maybe even a little bit of magic.
