The Crybaby Book Club —
Welcome to the book club 🐛
The Crybaby Book Club is a podcast hosted by self-confessed crybaby, Theola Destura! In each episode we'll be having a book club session where we'll do all the things book clubs do like talk about our favorite parts, gush about our favorite characters, discuss bits we didn't really enjoy, talk about quotes that really hit home, and most especially—in crybaby book club fashion—we'll unashamedly reveal which parts of the book made us cry.

Sofia Santelices
The Crybaby Book Club member joining me for the book session on Six of Crows is Sofia Santelices. Joining me tomorrow in Book Session No. 3 - Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo is my bff Sofia Santelices 🐳 The Gryffindor to my Hufflepuff, the Harry Cameron to my Evelyn Hugo, the Leo Sun to my Leo Moon, the better half of my soul. We read Six of Crows together so I couldn’t think of a better guest 💕
Cari Cakes
The Crybaby Book Club member joining me for the book club session on Crooked Kingdom is my all-time favorite booktuber, Cari Cakes. This episode is such a full-circle moment for The Crybaby Book Club! I found my love for reading again when I discovered Cari’s booktube in 2020. She was the reason why I read the Six of Crows duology in the first place! In these difficult times, reading has been my saving grace and I owe Cari for every single moment of joy I felt with each book I’ve picked up ever since. And look where that got me! I started a book podcast out of that joy 😭
Athena Pasiliao
Joining me for Book Session No.5 - The Invisible Life of Addie Larue by V.E. Schwab is IRL Goddess and fellow Addie Apologist, Mademoiselle Athena! The way she knows the ways of my hopeless romantic heart like it's her own! I guess you can say, she understood the assignment.
