Death by a Thousand Books
Welcome to Death by a Thousand Books podcast!💘
Every episode starts with a book review and ends with a Taylor Swift song. It’s a podcast for book lovers, Swifties and everyone in between. Together, we deep dive into characters, plots and the best moments from our favorite books. Then I use my swiftie power to breakdown songs & lyrics that I think would fit that book best. For any newbies who are just getting into reading, this podcast might be the perfect place to start your tbr! (and if you don’t know what a tbr is, don’t worry you’ll get there).
Whether you’ve been here from the beginning or just tuning in, I’m happy you’re here!! I started this podcast because I could talk for hours endlessly about two things: books & Taylor Swift. So I found a way to combine my love for both. I have always wanted to be a part of the book community but had no idea where to start. If even just one person picks up a new book after listening to one of these episodes, I’ll be happy. It’s been such a fun experience reading & recording these episodes, releasing them and finding those people that geek out over this idea as much as I do.🤓

Death by a Thousand Books
My Life with the Walter Boys (ft. Fifteen)
Now entering the Walter boy era… Giddy up🤠 This book is a perfect read for a younger audience, especially those who loved reading the Summer I Turned Pretty! Ali Novak was only 15 herself when originally published it on Wattpad. Jackie Howard loses her family in a tragic accident and has to uproot her perfect little New York life to move to Silver Falls, Colorado and live with (you guessed it) the Walter boys. On one hand, Walter Boys is a quick, fun read that is just fluffy. It’s a sweet story and I enjoyed it the same way I enjoy oreos – it's junkfood, but you can’t just read one page. For some reason you keep coming back for more. And somehow, despite its many flaws, I still loved reading it when I was in high school, and I think many teens will like it, too.
My Life with the Walters boys premiered as a Netflix series in December of 2023, and has been officially renewed for a second season! This episode talks about the book, the show, the differences between both and highlights a very nostalgic song from the Fearless era because let’s face it: we all know what it felt like to be “Fifteen” 💛
