Hi besties, 

Sally Rooney's latest novel is set to hit shelves this week. As the hype of another Cool Girl Book takes over our feeds, we discuss the impact that Advanced Reading Copies (or, ARCs) can have on a novel's success. 

We reference the Esquire article Are You Cool Enough For The Latest Sally Rooney Novel? by Madeline Diamond and Cameron Gibson's TikTok account Slaggy Book Club.

In the last month, two of our childhood stars have returned to the spotlight. But something was different. Both Christina Aguilera and Lindsay Lohan stepped out looking like their early 2000s selves. AKA twenty years younger.

We discuss the rise of "undetectable beauty" and reference this Dazed article by Bee Beardsworth and How To Stay Hot by Asia Milia Ware for The Cut.

Next, have you heard of Fridgescaping? It's the new aestheticised part of our lives, according to TikTok. We chat about our feelings on the trend and reference this video by creator @aamirazh on creative burnout.

In recommendation time, Maggie adores the podcast, I'm Wigging Out by Kee Reece Searles and Culture Club Chats alum, Lucy Neville. Jas has been loving the series English Teacher on Disney+. 

Chat to you next time! 
Jas & Mags xoxo
