Chaotic Readers
Welcome to Chaotic Readers! Just two best friends who met working in the hell that can be retail and found out about our mutual love of reading. Each episode we talk about a different bookish topic, while enjoying refreshing ciders or sometimes just coffee (water for Connor). This is your spoiler warning, because we usually forget to give one where it might be necessarily. So if you're looking to listen to a couple friends hanging out talking anything and all things books (with some mild derailment in conversations), look no further! You can connect with us on Instagram @ChaoticReadersPodcast, and if you follow the link in that bio you'll see where else you can talk with us and find out how you can be involved with our next episode!

Welcome back! We’ve got our December episode ready for you, a little late but that’s fine! Things are getting a little crazy with the holidays.
This month we’re talking about hyped books! Over hyped, under hyped, appropriately hype. These are all our OWN opinions and if you think otherwise that is COMPLETELY valid and 100% okay! Sometimes, a book being overhyped isn’t even a bad thing.&n...
Back for another episode! We deviated a lot in this episode and ended up talking about Monster the Ed Gein Story. Connor and me both finished the 3rd season of the Ryan Murphy series and just kind of dove into it after Connor mentioned wanting to read something about him - which if you have any recommendation, we’ll take them!
The book topic for this months episode was multiple editions of books, which we do ge...

Also lots of shark talk. And Jenna starts on her mild spiral about ...
