Outes Book Club: Recent Episodes
Anna Olsta and Virginia Hamilton
Let's go clubbing...like book clubbing! Hi, we're Anna and Virg! We are young, constantly evolving, and quenching our thirst for some juicy books. Grab a drink and join us on our imperfect clubbing journey!
Hi clubbers!! It's been a minute!
Anna and I are doing some restructuring in order to make more in depth and dynamic episodes so we are moving to 2 episodes a month instead of 4. We hope that by doing this we get to dive deeper into the books and topics!
This months book I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy was vulnerable, harrowing, and inspiring all at the same time! Highly recommend to anyone doing some work around healing and self actualization.
check out our insta to vote for December's book at @OutesBookClub !!

Join us this month in reading I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy. It already has us hooked and we are reflecting big time!

Hey Clubbers,
This book is phenomenal. I would say we are at a loss for words but we had a lot to say in this episode. If you're looking for a book that has the potential to change your life and your perspective on love/sacrifice while simultaneously giving you a new insight on WW2 RUN to the bookstore and take this baby home! It speaks for itself......

The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
This one is full of juice! We walk through how to have difficult but nourishing conversations with the ones you love. We also dive deep into caring about what others think as well as the distinctions separating porcupines from hedgehogs.
As you can see its all over the place but packed with practical tips and fun conversation between two besties!
Catch up on this months book here because we are discussing next week!!!

Hi Clubbers,
This one has the juice! We talk about navigating friendship in our early 20s as well as the importance of being introspective. Living in extremes is tiring and you can find balance with a little self refection. Anyone else feel particularly ragey this week......lol!

Heeeeyyyyy Clubbers,
This week was crazy....can anyone tell me whose fault it is?? I'd like to speak to the manager of chaos because that's who is running our lives right now!! Anna and I talk about letting go and letting life happen in order to learn the right lessons. How we find joy in the little things. What's on our reading list as well as a dynamic sports question from our special guest, Cole.
Hope yall enjoy

Bunny by Mona Awad
The Deeper the Water the Uglier the Fish by Katya Apekina
You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay
Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk
Happy Monday Clubbers!
Hope this episode finds you well because Anna and I were enjoying our deliriousness and it reflects in our conversations. We talk about keeping promises to yourself, how to approach negative thought patterns with the practical tool of a morning journal session. And obviously we talk about books and snorkeling and the ambience at Hudson House/Dickies BBQ.
.....I dont want to spoil too much so just give it a listen, it's definitely a ride this week.
