About this listen
In this episode, Becca Murphy sits down with Whitney and Amanda, co-founders of Bookish, a community-driven reading initiative redefining what it means to gather around books.
Whitney, with her background in tech, and Amanda, rooted in visual merchandising, share how their unique skill sets merged to build something deeply meaningful. What began as a simple idea to foster literacy and connection in Utah started with just 12 attendees at their first event. Today, Bookish has grown into a thriving reading community built around the idea that books are a non-polarizing way to bring people together.
From hosting “reading parties” to planning a future book festival, their journey proves that everything starts as an idea — and community makes it grow.
If you’ve ever dreamed of starting something meaningful, or you believe in the power of books to connect people, this conversation will leave you inspired.
