10 SEP. 2024 · 3.20 Part 1 Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J. Maas
It is finally here. The last installment of Throne of Glass. I was expecting to enjoy this series, but nothing prepared me for the obsession that would develop. This conversation got to be a little long so the second half will be out next week. Comment with your favorite character arch or book in the series.

23 AGO. 2024 · 3.19 Capote's Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era by Laurence Leamer
Capote's Women follows Truman Capote and the wealthy women he befriended throughout his life, who he referred to as his "Swans." Nonfiction is one of my favorite genres, but this subject matter was completely new to me. I did not know anything about Capote other than that he wrote Breakfast and Tiffany's. And his "Swans" were completely unknown to me. Normally, I like diving into a new subject matter, but I struggled to find likeable or relatable moments with any of the characters. This book was intriguing and I am looking forward to the show inspired by it, but my feelings toward the book and its characters are conflicted to say the least. What do you think of the people described in this book? Have you ever been conflicted about a book before?

It is time for part 2 of our discussion of the Throne of Glass tandem read: Empire of Storms & Tower of Dawn. This ended up being a two-part episode purely for length purposes. We discuss both books and there are mega spoilers in both episodes so be aware before listening! In part 1, we discuss my feelings on the tandem read and what I would recommend, my general thoughts on both books, and we get through our discussion of half of the characters. The rest of the character discussion as well as predictions for the last book will be in part 2. Comment on our instagram with your favorite story line from these two epics.

9 JUL. 2024 · 3.17 The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride
I had no idea what to expect going into this book. Ultimately, I would highly recommend this. Just go in with the understanding that this is a character study. It is in the 1920s and 30s in a small town in PA focusing on one neighborhood. Some heavy topics are covered from race, gender, class, and religious prejudices. By the end of the book, you will understand all of these characters and feel like a member of their community as well.

20 JUN. 2024 · 3.16 One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig
This week we are discussing a new to the podcast fantasy series starting with One Dark Window. This is a two book series and I cannot recommend it enough. It started a little slow for me, but I was quickly enthralled in this universe of Providence Cards that give their users certain magical abilities. But there is a catch. Every use of magic has a cost and that could be a physical cost or a mental cost. Trust me, you won't be able to put down Elspeth Spindle and her story.

29 MAY. 2024 · 3.15 The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman
I started this expecting it to be a fun murder mystery. I was not expecting a British retirement community with fabulous dry humor as retirees inject themselves into an investigation.
Osman doesn't shy away from the hard conversations around death, retirement, and aging but does it in such a way that is relatable, funny, and ultimately uplifting. I can't recommend this enough and I can't wait to hear what you think about it.
Who is your favorite character?

14 MAY. 2024 · 3.14 Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
In our latest Throne of Glass episode, we are discussing https://bookshop.org/a/23102/9781639731015. The episode is a little chaotic as so much happens in this book and I had no one to discuss it with other than all of you of course! Last time, https://bookshop.org/a/23102/9781639730995 was my favorite book in the series so far. Queen of Shadows wins out though. If you thought you loved the characters before, you grow to love them even more in this book. Do you have a favorite book in the series?

30 ABR. 2024 · 3.13 The Heiress by Rachel Hawkins
https://bookshop.org/a/23102/9781250280039 is a 2024 mystery-esque fiction story that follows Camden and Jules in current time as Camden is forced to comfront some issues from his past that he would rather avoid. The book is split between Camden's perspective and Jules' perspective as well as letters written 10 years prior by Camden's adopted mom, Ruby, and news clippings from throughout Ruby's life. Ruby was an heiress, but by the end of this story full of twists and turns, Ruby is not the true heiress if you ask me!
