Badass Books & Besties Newsletter

A bi-weekly, bookish love letter for women who crave good stories,

meaningful connection, and encouragement to live their most badass life.

A little about me — and the magic you’re stepping into

Hey, I’m Brianna — author of Perpetually 24, founder of Badass Book Besties, lover of bookstores, cozy reading corners, deep conversations, and women supporting women.

I believe in:

📚 Books that shift your heart
💛 Community that feels like home
🔥 Conversations that make you braver
🌿 Women living authentic, aligned, badass lives

If you’re here, I already know something about you: You value growth, connection, and the power of a really good story — and you deserve a space that celebrates that.

What you can expect every other week 💌


Each issue of the Badass Newsletter is a warm, uplifting, bookish email filled with:

📚 A Badass Book Pick: A must-read recommendation, review, or highlight you’ll want to add to your TBR immediately.

🎙️ Podcast Spotlight: Quick links to the latest Badass Books & Besties episodes — book chats, inspiration, and real conversations.

📦 Bookstore Updates: New Blind Date with a Book drops, staff picks, restocks, and deals from Recycled Reads.

🔥 A Badass Life Tip: A simple mindset shift, reflection, or encouragement to help you step into your most empowered self.

A Writing Prompt or Creative Spark: For the writers, journal lovers, and creative dreamers.

📅 Upcoming Book Club & Community Events: Everything happening inside Badass Book Besties — so you never miss out.

My goal is for every email to feel like a breath of fresh air — the kind of message that makes you smile, feel seen, and fall a little more in love with reading and with yourself.

This isn’t about inbox overload. It’s about thoughtful notes you’ll actually want to open.

You’ve officially stepped into a small circle of inspiration and bookish magic — and I’m really glad you’re here.

You’re going to LOVE what’s inside. 💛

This community is dedicated to empowering women — readers, writers, dreamers, mothers, creatives, explorers — to step into who they’re becoming with joy, confidence, and connection.

You’re valued. 

You’re appreciated.

You’re welcome exactly as you are.

P.S. I love hearing from my readers. If you ever have ideas, requests, or a book you want me to talk about, hit reply anytime. This newsletter is as much yours as it is mine. 💛
