    Jul 8 2025

    In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli dive into The Perfect Divorce, the unhinged sequel to Jeneva Rose’s The Perfect Marriage.

After Bob cheats, Sarah’s icy rage resurfaces, and chaos ensues. Yajaira and Cheli recap every jaw-dropping twist, from missing mistresses to fake deaths, basement kidnappings, and the increasingly absurd performances Sarah puts on to cover her tracks.

  • The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (2023) | Book Flix #7
    Jun 26 2025

    In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli trade their books for popcorn to review the film adaptation of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. They unpack everything from Snow’s villain origin (and questionable hair choices) to the chaotic music numbers, awkward romance, and surprisingly stacked cast. Did the movie make us care more about Coriolanus? Was Lucy Gray giving main character energy or just vibes and vocals? And why did it feel like three different movies in one? Tune in as the girls break down what worked, what dragged, and whether this prequel actually earned its place in the Hunger Games universe—or just sang too many songs.

  • The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins | was snow's origin needed?
    Jun 24 2025

    In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli return to Panem to review The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins—and they’re not holding back. They dive into the origin story of a young Coriolanus Snow and debate whether the prequel adds anything meaningful to the Hunger Games universe. Was the love story believable? Did Lucy Gray deserve better? And what was up with all that singing?? Tune in as they unpack the slow burn (literally) of Snow’s villain arc, the book’s commentary on control and spectacle, and whether this prequel hit the right notes—or just dragged its feet through the mud.

  • Mockingjay Part 1 & 2 (2015) | Book Flix #6
    Jun 19 2025

    In this emotional and chaotic episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli sit down for a girly deep dive into Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2. This isn’t your typical plot breakdown—this is a full-on catharsis session about missed moments, emotional damage, and all the bread Peeta should have brought into the arena. The hosts reflect on Katniss’s awkward rise as a revolutionary symbol, Gale’s war crimes (allegedly), and how Peeta's hijacking storyline was more brutal onscreen than they ever expected.

    They debate whether the movies needed to be split into two parts, roast the lack of screen time between Katniss and Peeta (again), and fantasize about a Hunger Games x Love Island crossover hosted by Caesar Flickerman. The girls also gush over Effie’s upgraded role and surprise kiss with Haymitch, mourn Finnick’s rushed and senseless death, and, of course, spiral into laughter and rage over that emotionally cold baby-filled epilogue.

    Despite their critiques, one thing is clear: these movies still hold up. Whether they’re clowning Gale, defending Peeta’s every move, or yelling “REAL,” this episode is for the girlies who still haven’t emotionally recovered from The Hunger Games.

  • Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins | did this trilogy age well?
    Jun 17 2025

    In this episode of their Hunger Games deep dive, Yajaira and Cheli take on Mockingjay—and they do not hold back. From the rushed character deaths (Finnick deserved a full chapter, not a sentence) to the lack of meaningful dialogue between Katniss and Peeta, the hosts question why the emotional payoff just wasn’t there. Katniss choosing Peeta makes sense, but where was the scene where they talked it out? Where was the slow-burn reconnection? And why was Haymitch the only one she seemed to emotionally bond with? Join the besties as they discuss whether or not this was a proper ending to the trilogy!

  • Catching Fire Movie (2013) | Book Flix #5
    Jun 12 2025

    In this episode of The Book Fix, Yajaira and Cheli continue their Hunger Games deep dive with a chaotic, passionate breakdown of Catching Fire (2013). The episode kicks off with a spirited conversation about bread (or the shocking lack of it from Panem’s most famous baker), before diving into everything from sourdough dreams to Peeta’s missed opportunities to be a true himbo hero.

    They reflect on Katniss kissing Gale way too much, Peeta being the ultimate damsel in distress, and all the key moments the movie left out—like the iconic medicinal plant book scene and the loss of Peeta’s leg. The girls also demand more vulnerability from Katniss, more strength from Peeta, and more context for why their characters live in fancy houses now.

    Of course, things derail into talk about dating short kings, catching the ick, workplace cringe, and whether it’s even possible to hate a movie that meant so much to them growing up. They may have complaints, but this one still gets a nostalgic 5 out of 5. Snow may be obsessed with their love story, but Yajaira and Cheli are obsessed with this movie.
