A Court of Thorns and Roses Episode B (ACOTAR Book 1)

Host Kayla takes you on an unhinged spoiler-free journey through her (only mildly controversial) recommended reading order for all 15 Sarah Janet Maas books (Series: Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, Crescent City). She does mention which books end in cliffhangers but only to present you with an order that leaves you a fraction less sad and empty than you would be if you read it in a different order. Just face it though, you're going to be feeling the feels any way you cut it.

Episode contains all SJM book spoilers (ACOTAR, ToG, and CC) In this B-side A Court of Thorns and Roses episode, Kayla goes full-blown Suriel at her first chance to publicly explode with some bangin’ spoilers and foreshadowing in A Court of Thorns and Roses through the lens of the other Sarah Janet Maas works.

Host Kayla, a pretty unreliable narrator, is back with the book that started it all: A Court of Thorns and Roses, the first book in the ACOTAR series by Sarah J. Maas. After reading this infamous Beauty and the Beast retelling, Kayla covers Feyre and Tamlin’s slow burn from enemies (read: captor/captive) to lovers and badass-MC Feyre’s soul-breaking journey Under the Mountain (including all the provocative tear-licking confusion). Kayla also doesn’t update the Book Boyfriend Rankings after this read, and that’s not at all intentional. Really. Cauldron, boil me!

Host Kayla, a pretty unreliable narrator, is back with What Lies Beyond the Veil, the first book in Harper L. Woods’ Of Flesh & Bone series. After flying through this steamy story, Kayla covers Estrella and Caelum’s fast-burn romance, her love of fae lore (sans pointy ears), and how she wishes the veil separated her from all references to Caelum’s snake. This episode also kicks off Kayla's Official Book Boyfriend Rankings.

Host Kayla, a pretty unreliable narrator, is back with A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire, the second book in Jennifer L. Armentrout’s Blood and Ash series. Kayla not only covers the 3.85 things she forgot to tell you (that are apparently VERY valuable for the conversation) from book one, but she also talks up Casteel’s “redemption arc” and introduces the real drama drop of book two: The Joining.

Join host Kayla, a pretty unreliable narrator, on a journey through From Blood and Ash, the first book in Jennifer L. Armentrout’s Blood And Ash series. Hear Kayla’s take on this "enemies to ENEMIES" tale (plus other top tropes) as you’re whisked through a tragic retelling of The Maiden, her guard, and just exactly how honeydew makes its hot fruit debut.
