This week Jerrica and Lia get carried away in the world of dragons and match the length of the book with the length of the podcast episode. Not really, but in podcast world, kind of close. They take a deep dive into Iron Flame by Rebecca Yaros and touch base on some missed continuity errors that Lia beats herself up over. Jerrica being never the wiser focuses more on her hate of the time wasted not communicating with each other and creating relationship problems where there need not be, between Violence and Xaden. They spoil the hell out of the book and have some questions and theories about what will happen next?! Listen in if you've already read it or let them read it for you. Happy listening!

We’re back reading buddies, and we are returning with our Dragons. Okay not Our dragons, but the dragons of Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yaros. After taking the compatibility test because we’re normal adults, we can reveal Lia has a Blue Dragon and Jerrica has a Red Dragon. Feeling lost? Well listen in because we have got a good one for you- possibly the best fantasy novel written in this current decade. We can’t really spoil more other than saying Welcome to Basgiath War Collage. Happy listening!

This week Lia and Jerrica spice it up with a Why Choose book and  get down and dirty with Lia’s favorite thing on earth; continuity errors. Three Swedish Mountain Men is the book of the week and they are instantly confused. Then get confused some more. Then try to make sense of some interesting position choices, but are left even more confused. Basically, they conclude the main girl is a contortionist owl, the other guy is a moose, another a golden retriever, and the last a scratch. See, confused. Listen for all of their rants on this book and why choose trope. Enjoy!

This week Lia surprises the nation with a whopping 5 star review. You heard it here first. Lia loved a book with the silly title of A Not So Meet Cute. While they both agree this book had no business being as good as it was, Jerrica took on this author like an addict to crack. Plowing through five in one week, it’s official that this author Meghan Quinn is not a one off, but a freakin gem!  Listen in to hear us rave!

In this weeks episode Jerrica puts her kink club books aside and gets back into the world of fantasy and mates. They read the duology These Hollow Vows by Lexi Ryan. Comparing this to ACOTAR and Cruel Prince was more like mashing ideas into a decent version but not as standout. That being said, the girls really enjoyed the story. Lia has a mini rant moment of how the Fae rules were not followed about lying, and Jerrica let’s flames shoot from her ears at the betrayal and nonchalance of Bash’s choices. Are you team Finn or Bash/Ronan?  So many spoilers so read first or listen in to get the recap, letting us read it for you!  Happy listening!

This week Lia and Jerrica read Christina Lauren again, a dream duo that they could only hope one day can be them. Lia Jerrica has a ring to it don’t you think? Or Jerrica Lia maybe? We’ll decide later. In the meantime the duo enjoy the opposite book to each other, of course, and have some thoughts again about pov and kinks. Role playing or tying up?

This week is romance week and let us tell you, Lia has amped up the spice. She freestyle creates the best romance book to ever grace Jerrica’s ears. She wants it now. They talk about some romance tropes and highs and lows and repetition of this genre. But what you really need to hear is Lia’s new story. It will blow your mind! Jerrica is currently starting a go fund me page to encourage Lia to quit her job to write this masterpiece. Listen in to hear all about Three makes Six!
