Welcome to The Read Room Podcast, brought to you by your co-hosts, Kya Buller and Sophia Wild!

You may know us from Manchester's best and busiest book club: The Read Room, but outside of that, we’re also best friends with a lot to talk about.

Join us as we sharing our favourite reads, the latest gossip (The Lore of Late, if you will) and our totally unsolicited opinions with all of you. 

In this first episode, the girls get real about:

- The chaotic aftermath of recent breakups

- Situationships, slow dating, and why they’re both done pretending to “love slow”

- Tarot spirals and paying witches on TikTok

- Their current reads: The House with the Golden Door by Elodie Harper and Notice by Heather Lewis — two powerful, emotionally brutal novels exploring sex work, trauma, and autonomy

- The Coldplay cheating scandal and what it says about internet culture, privacy and punishment

- Words we’re cancelling (starting with “Jumbotron”)

Books Mentioned:– Notice by Heather Lewis– The House with the Golden Door by Elodie Harper
