283. Making Friends and Finding Bisexual Romance Characters: Recommendations and Advice from Amanda & Sarah

Summary: Amanda and I have a lot to talk about in this episode! First, we chat about the recent episode of The Bachelor that we recapped for Smart Bitches (it was TWO HOURS y’all), and what we (might have) learned about the series by watching one episode. (Clearly, we are now unquestionable experts. *Unquestionable* experts!) We then answer a request for advice from Katie, who is looking to make new friends in her new home outside Atlanta. We talk about the process of making new friends, making dates and planning activities with friends, and ways to find the people who love the things you love. If you’ve got advice or suggestions for Katie, please leave a comment at smartbitchestrashybooks.com/podcast, or email us. And if you’d like to ask us for advice, since we are now Unquestionable Experts, please do! You can email us at sbjpodcast@gmail.com. You can also find us on Twitter @SmartBitches. We also take a recommendation request! This week, we recommend books for Lizzie, who had a miserable holiday due to a homophobic and bigoted family member. Heads up for some bi-erasure and bigotry in her letter. Lizzie, however, being a smart and resilient romance reader, requested some recommendations for f/f or bi characters who come out during the course of the story. We celebrate Lizzie’s coming out, and we do our best to make a varied selection of recommendations. I’m sure you have plenty of suggestions! So please email or tweet at us if you have more!
