We’re officially on a break! 💜

No new episodes until February 2026, but we’re so grateful for everyone who listened, commented, shared, and screamed about adaptations with us this year.

Stay tuned for polls, recs, and sneak peeks at what’s coming next. Season 4 will be worth the wait. 🎬

As we turn the page on this year, we’re letting go of a few habits, expectations, and takes that no longer serve our reading, watching, or podcasting joy.

New year, new energy, same love for adaptations—just a little more intention going forward. 💙📚 📽️ 🎬

Have you seen The Housemaid yet? 👀🍿🗝️

Come with @readingsalt.bsky.social to the Alamo Drafthouse to finally watch the Housemaid adaptation. 📽️

These are Keri’s full non-spoiler thoughts— let’s just say if you enjoyed the book (or love a twisty thriller), this is absolutely worth the watch. 💙📚

Originally a beloved Webtoon, now a hit TV series, True Beauty landed on Netflix earlier this month. If you’re in the mood for romance, drama, & a glow-up story, this one’s worth adding to your watchlist. 💙📚 📽️

Lindsey has been diving into it & will be sharing her full thoughts in a review soon! 👀💬

📚💥 Four to Score by Janet Evanovich brings the laughs, the chaos, and even a little unexpected spice. Fast-paced, hilarious, and classic Stephanie Plum energy. 💙📚🌶️

🎄🎬 Christmas with the Kranks, but make it memes. Because nothing says holiday chaos like skipping Christmas, judging neighbors, tanning booths, and Tim Allen under pressure. 😅❄️

📖They Have Always Lived in the Castle is one title that really stands out for us this year. Although each of us rated it between 3.5-4 at the time of our episode, we can't deny that it is a title we constantly think back to. 💙📚 📽️ 🎬

🧟‍♀️✨ We wrapped up Jane Austen December with one of the wildest adaptations out there—and let’s just say, we had thoughts. From plot holes to unexpected laughs to questionable tone shifts, this mash-up gave each of us a very different reading and watching experience.

🎉 Happy 250th Birthday to the incomparable Jane Austen—the queen of wit, romance, and timeless storytelling! 💐📖

From Pride & Prejudice to Emma, her words continue to charm, challenge, and connect readers centuries later. 💕✨

🎬🧟‍♀️ Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, but make it meme-able.

Now that our episode is out, it’s time to relive the elegance, the chaos, the sword-fighting sisters, and the absolute unhinged joy of this adaptation—one meme at a time.

Our Pride & Prejudice & Zombies episode is officially here, hosted by Lindsey—who started 2025 with a zombie romance (Warm Bodies) and is ending the year with another undead love story. Symmetry. Beauty. Carnage. We love to see it. 🧟‍♂️❤️

Available now wherever you listen to podcasts! 🎧

💕🧟‍♀️Bookending our year with zombie romance wasn’t something we originally planned for, but we started our year with Warm Bodies, so it somehow seems appropriate to wrap it up with Pride & Prejudice & Zombies.

🎙️Tune in tomorrow to follow along as we navigate love, decorum, & a zombie uprising!

✨ We finally sat down with Jane Austen’s iconic story and three of its wildly different adaptations, and let’s just say… we had thoughts. From swoon-worthy Darcys to chaotic Bennets, we covered it all.
