Brat and It’s the Same But It’s a Track-by-Track Booklist So It’s Not


Hot-girl books to read at a bar with a martini and a side of fries.

In much the same way, Charli’s song (and the remix with Addison Rae) offers quintessential Los Angeles, with the titular Cali-based brand, references to shopping on Melrose, and the single’s cover art featuring the Chateau Marmont’s signature mismatched furniture. But Divine Secrets speaks so gorgeously about unself-conscious girlhood and the desire for all women to rewind to that time before they ordered their lives for the male gaze.
