#265: How To Start A Book Club

Today we're gonna share the benefits of being a part of a local book club and creative ideas for starting your own. We get a lot of questions about how to make adult friends and hands down a book club is the best way to get started! At the end of the episode we're also sharing the hills we'd gladly die on.

#24: Things We Bought During The Quarantine (MINI)

This is our first mini episode! We're going to try out post TWO episodes each week- a full length episode (like what you've been used to so far) and a mini, which will be under 20 minutes and stick to just one quick subject! We would, OF COURSE, love to hear your requests for future mini episodes. And this first episode is all about what we bought during the quarantine. Visit the shownotes at abeautifulmess.com/podcast.
