We are officially in our Emily Henry movie era! With People We Meet On Vacation dominating the timeline this week, everyone is looking for that next great story to get lost in.

If you’ve been staring at your bookshelf feeling uninspired, this episode is your emergency rescue kit. We are revisiting the six specific books guaranteed to drag you out of a reading slump, no matter how dire it is.

We’re talking about:

• The modern romance that rivals Poppy and Alex’s chemistry.
• A tear-jerking family saga that feels like a movie in your head.
• The obscure romantasy series we bet you haven’t heard of (but will obsess over).

Consider this your prescription for the long weekend: put down the phone, pick up one of these books, and prepare to be unavailable.

The Spill has a new podcast thats devoted to TV bingeing! Our latest ep contains all the fan theories, cast reveals and easter eggs about the new series of Bridgerton to get up to date before  Season 4 comes out. Listen now on Apple or Spotify or the Mamamia app.
