Spines & Sidebars

Welcome to Spines & Sidebars — where the story gets us together and the sidebars keep us connected. 📚✨

We’re a DMV-based community built around books, culture, music, movies, TV, wellness, new experiences, and an impressive amount of yapping.

Expect monthly book recaps, hot takes, guest conversations, Books-to-Screen discussions, playlists, event recaps, and whatever sidebar we somehow wander into along the way.

We read across genres, keep an open mind, and intentionally center Black authors and voices.

Basically: thoughtful conversations with very unserious people.
