180. Bree and Sarah Squee About Level Up by Cathy Yardley




Smart Podcast, Trashy Books: Reviews, Interviews, and Discussion About All the Romance Novels You Love to Read show

Summary: On a recent Friday Reads post, Bree Bridges noticed that someone was reading Level Up by Cathy Yardley. It was me, and she asked to talk to me when I was done because she was dying to discuss it. I know that feel! So I figured, let’s record a podcast of the two of us squeeing about how much we liked this book. We talk about the book, the heroine, the heroine’s friends, the power of good world building in contemporary romance, and then we squee a lot. We also talk a bit about Bree’s background in programming and working in tech, and the sexism and misogyny one encounters within that industry. Note: this discussion is a little spoiler-y, so if you want to read the book with no background or insider info, listen to this one after you read it. But go read it. It’s terrific. Trust us. We’ve got 50+ minutes of squee to back us up.
