This episode focuses on “The Idea of You” by Robinne Lee and we can’t wait to discuss it with all of you! Some of you might’ve watched the Prime Video hit movie of the same name, so we figured this was a good time to talk about the adaptation and compare it to the book! We have lots of thoughts about this one!

“The Idea of You” centers around art dealer Solène Marchand and her unconventional relationship with boy band heartthrob Hayes Campbell. After having met at the August Moon concert, Solène is swept away into a life completely transformed into something unrecognizable. The two become a viral sensation and Solène is forced to deal with how this complicates her “real” life—particularly, the ways in which this all affects her young daughter.

We paired the book with Pommery Royal Brut Champagne N.V., which speaks to the main character’s ties to France and England.

We are back and coming in hot with “The Woman in me” by Britney Spears. This book was highly anticipated and named Best Book of the Year by Elle, The Washington Post, Rolling Stone, NPR, Financial Times, Vanity Fair, and more. I know we were both itching to get our hands on it!

In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court. The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable, and it changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others. “The Woman in Me” reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history. Written with remarkable candor and humor, Spears’ groundbreaking book illuminates the enduring power of music and love—and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms, at last.

In this episode, we pair the book with Josef Ehmoser Zweigelt Rosé 2022 to capture Britney’s feminine and ever-changing spirit. This is one you don’t want to miss!
