The level of cooked-ness of the egg is indicative of how much you’re letting your feels hang out. That’s not necessarily a bad thing Poached, unaccompanied: Jesus are you okay Poached, on toast (nothing else): you’re not okay but you’re very pragmatic about it Scrambled: you’re basically all right.

Welcome to the first episode in our A Court of Silver Flames recap series! Today we're dissecting the first five chapters of the BOOK OF ROWAN'S SOUL. Strap in to your Illyrian fighting leathers! Eat some sugarless oatmeal! Timestamps: 0:00-5:12: summary of this series' structure and the ACOTAR series 5:12-13:05: introduction to our main characters 13:05-42:20: plot summary of first five chapters 43:40 to end WTFery and games Content warnings: no sexual assault occurs in the book, but we interpret a major event that happened to the FMC before the book begins as an allegory for assault and discuss that briefly in this episode. There is also brief description of suicidal ideation of a secondary character in these chapters, which we also mention.

It's been a minute but we are BACK and ready to discuss A Court of Silver Flames for a significant portion of 2024. But first! A reintroduction to the hosts of this podcast, in the form of some trivia and a romance description or two.

What's your Wolf-Myers-Briggs type? Today we're talking about The Tyrant Alpha's Rejected Mate by Cate C. Wells! TW for brief and oblique reference to past sexual assault in the book's universe (not to any of the main characters, and not in a way that is central to the story). We're thrilled to also have gotten some special Q&A answers from the author herself! Listen to us as we rave about this book and Rowan forces Adelaide to guess which 20 bizarrely-named mushrooms are real or fake.

Today is a spoiler-safe mini episode about The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon. Will Rowan convince Adelaide to add this to her TBR?

#CrabCop #ItsNotALegPiper In this episode we're chatting about the much-beloved, highly nautical rom com It Happened One Summer by our dear friend Tessa Bailey. This one gets pretty explicit to buckle up (and use earphones)! We're borrowing the Spice Girl Scale from @bookedupchick on Instagram.

Today, Dear Listener, we're discussing The Love Hypothesis by our dear friend Ali Hazelwood. This episode is full of spoilers and baby background noises, as is becoming our calling card. Enjoy!

Today we're reading Devil in Disguise by our dear friend Lisa Kleypas, the newest book in her Ravenels series. Warning that this episode is chock-full of spoilers! And also some newborn baby cooing sounds.
