We Read It One Night

Hey comrades! In this episode, I'm chatting about what the heck "historical accuracy" is anyway with my new favorite historical romance author (and 19th c. English lit professor) Alexandra Vasti, author of the upcoming sapphic romcom, LADIES IN HATING. We talk about falling into research rabbit holes, when to throw that research in the trash, and assign an appropriate amount of hate toward Georgette Heyer and the Victorians. And of course, we're stuffing your TBRs with our favorite historically accurate recs. Enjoy the show!

Hey pals! Today, wrapping up Kiera Cass's Selection saga with THE ONE. We'll finally reveal whether the blonde teenage boy or the brown haired teenage boy wins the love triangle and explain how a book can be closed-door, no spice and still be a bodice ripper. The last 10% is shit-a-brick insane and the whole book makes much more sense when you remember it's Bachelor franchise fanfiction. Enjoy the show! Brazen banter: Falling for propaganda!

Hey pals! It's our third anniversary and we're throwing our birthday party in the swamp, specifically the sexy sapphic swamp from Darva Green's SHE CAME FROM THE SWAMP. We're three years old now, and thankfully podcasts age like cats, because otherwise we'd be way too young to be reading smutty romance. We're celebrating all the support you've given us over three years as well as the love and joy we get from reading romance, and especially queer romance, in a world where a lot of people would rather we got neither. Here's to another great year! Brazen banter: Stags striking out! Glass bottomed boats! What's the true definition of a murder cult? The complexities of being pulling by tiny dogs!
