Embark on a literary escapade that will weave you through the laughter, love, and lunacy of high fantasy worlds! With Josh's epic trek to join us (complete with a pitstop at Best Buy), we promise an episode packed with the charm of audiobooks and the secrets behind the draw of "A Court of Mist and Fury." Unwind with us as we compare notes on the alluring narration styles that transform mundane jogs into epic quests and the spellbinding tales that might just replace your workout playlist.

From the intricate spellwork in Brandon Sanderson's creations to the entwined destinies of Sarah J. Maas's heroines, we dissect what makes these authors' series bewitchingly resonate with readers—and listeners. Our candid banter flits from the gripping world-building to character arcs that spark debates, while social media's power in propelling these stories into the limelight gets its due spotlight. And when it comes to Feyre's artistry (or lack thereof), we spare no jests nor hold back on the sweetness of Cassian's confessions.

We wrap up with a hearty chat about the spicy scenes that set our pulses racing, the emotional rollercoasters of Nesta and Feyre's journeys, and the high stakes drama of immortality. Whether it's Feyre's fierce battles or the simmering tension between characters, we dissect it all with humor and heart. Plus, don't miss our foray into the Harry Potter realm, where we ponder how the series feels when you're coming at it fresh as an adult. Tune in, and let's navigate the laugh-out-loud moments and deep connections that define our favorite fantastical narratives.

Summary:
Feyre has undergone more trials than one human woman can carry in her heart. Though she's now been granted the powers and lifespan of the High Fae, she is haunted by her time Under the Mountain and the terrible deeds she performed to save the lives of Tamlin and his people.

As her marriage to Tamlin approaches, Feyre's hollowness and nightmares consume her. She finds herself split into two different one who upholds her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court, and one who lives out her life in the Spring Court with Tamlin. While Feyre navigates a dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms. She might just be the key to stopping it, but only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future-and the future of a world in turmoil.

Bestselling author Sarah J. Maas's masterful storytelling brings this second book in her dazzling, sexy, action-packed series to new heights.

This episode, we bring along Sarah, a dedicated listener turned guest, who shares that very passion for getting lost in literary escapes. We revel in the nostalgia of childhood favorites like American Girl Dolls and introduce fresh loves from Sarah's recent reads, such as "The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue" and "Once in a Millennial." Our shared laughter and stories form the tapestry of today's conversation, weaving through the threads of fiction and non-fiction alike.

Ever found yourself arguing with friends over whether audiobooks or physical books provide the superior reading experience? That's precisely the kind of debate we ignite as Chanel, myself, and the Fiction Fanatics welcome Dannie to the fray. While Stacy's off snuggling her new bundle of joy, we dive headfirst into the lush landscapes of Sarah J. Maas's "A Court of Mist and Fury," comparing the sensory delights of ink on paper to the spoken word, and even entertain the thought of a dramatized Harry Potter series to spice up our future episodes.

Fantasy worlds collide with reality as we unravel the threads of love and toxicity within Maas's narrative, holding a magnifying glass over Tamlin's controversial character arc. Mother's Day is on the horizon, so amidst our literary excavation, we pause to tip our hats to the powerhouse moms out there—including ours. Dannie steps bravely into the podcasting limelight, reminding us that the bonds of friendship and shared passions can turn workplace acquaintances into lifelong comrades.

Hey nerds, we are discussing part one of Seven Days in June by Tia Williams.  This book is an instant favorite of ours, and we know you will love it too!

Our narrative takes a sharp turn as we unwrap the complex emotions entangling Eva's past and present relationships, her quest for answers, and the tensions that surge when family secrets are on the brink of exposure. Eva's confrontation with her past love, a mystery locked away by her mother's silence, is a raw display of the heartache of unfinished business. We wade through the murky waters of jealousy, sabotage, and the redemptive power of understanding as we trace the steps of Eva and her mother, whose strained bond refracts the longing we've all felt for maternal connection and closure.

We top off this emotional rollercoaster with a glowing review of a spicy tale that's caught Reese Witherspoon's eye—a story of characters clawing their way to redemption, love, and a kiss that's been years in the making. We're not just recounting plot points; we're lauding our favorite lines, basking in the satisfaction of a tale that's every bit deserving of its silver screen buzz.

Summary:
Brooklynite Eva Mercy is a single mom and bestselling erotica writer, who is feeling pressed from all sides. Shane Hall is a reclusive, enigmatic, award-winning literary author who, to everyone's surprise, shows up in New York.

When Shane and Eva meet unexpectedly at a literary event, sparks fly, raising not only their past buried traumas, but the eyebrows of New York's Black literati. What no one knows is that twenty years earlier, teenage Eva and Shane spent one crazy, torrid week madly in love. They may be pretending that everything is fine now, but they can't deny their chemistry - or the fact that they've been secretly writing to each other in their books ever since.

Over the next seven days in the middle of a steamy Brooklyn summer, Eva and Shane reconnect, but Eva's not sure how she can trust the man who broke her heart, and she needs to get him out of New York so that her life can return to normal. But before Shane disappears again, there are a few questions she needs answered...

With its keen observations of Black life and the condition of modern motherhood, as well as the consequences of motherless-ness, Seven Days in June is by turns humorous, warm and deeply sensual.

Hey Nerds! We hope you are excited to discuss our favorite book of the year so far, Bride by Ali Hazelwood!

This episode is a testament to the power of names—whether they're mispronounced or carry an unexpected depth, they have a way of enriching our discussions and keeping us on our toes. We ponder over the idiocy of love, finding ourselves both amused and exasperated by the heartbreaks and knots of drama our beloved characters endure. The engaging banter between Chanel and Stacy brings out the hilarity and humanity in each twist and misunderstanding, proving that even supernatural beings can have their own share of ordinary woes.

Summary:
A dangerous alliance between a Vampyre bride and an Alpha Werewolf becomes a love deep enough to sink your teeth into in this new paranormal romance.

Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast—again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange—again...

Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was….

Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she's ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what’s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory…alone with the wolf.

As we flipped open the pages of "Bride" by Ali Hazelwood, the sweet scent of nostalgia for those fanfiction-laden, Tumblr-drenched days of 2012 was undeniable. Get whisked away on our latest literary adventure, where we explore the intentionally hazy world-building that keeps you anchored to the characters' vibrant stories. We've got the lowdown on the Omega verse and nodding practices, and trust us, they make for a stirring read.



Summary:
A dangerous alliance between a Vampyre bride and an Alpha Werewolf becomes a love deep enough to sink your teeth into in this new paranormal romance.

Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast—again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange—again...

Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was….

Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she's ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what’s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory…alone with the wolf.

Ever wondered if you're more of a vampire enthusiast or a werewolf warrior at heart? We're stirring the pot of pop culture this week with a playful examination of these nocturnal beings, starting with a throwback to the '80s classic "Teen Wolf." 

Prepare your inner bookworm for a treat as we dive into Ali Hazelwood's "Bride," our tantalizing book of the month. With its promise of vampires, werewolves, and sizzling enemies-to-lovers antics, it's a literary feast you won't want to miss. Our discussion meanders through the moonlit lore of pop culture's most beloved werewolves, from Harry Potter's Remus Lupin to "Teen Wolf's" charming shapeshifters. Hollywood has given us many faces of the supernatural, but none as enduring as these furry heartthrobs, whose legacies we explore amidst tales of personal celebrity run-ins and on-screen portrayals that have us hotly debating their seductive allure.

Ever found yourself drawn into the magnetic world of a fantasy series, only to become embroiled in the lives of its characters like they're old friends? That's exactly what happened to us with Sarah J. Maas's 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' series. As we jump into the fray, we're dishing out a feisty analysis of Feyre's journey and her complex relationships, comparing it to the fervor of Maas's 'Throne of Glass'. From our first impressions swayed by the book's buzz to our evolving perspectives on character likability, we're dissecting what makes these fictional beings tick and how they capture our hearts—or sometimes don't.

Get ready to explore part two of this amazing series Nerds!

Summary:
When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world.

At least, he’s not a beast all the time.

As she adapts to her new home, her feelings for the faerie, Tamlin, transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But something is not right in the faerie lands. An ancient, wicked shadow is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it, or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.

From bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a seductive, breathtaking book that blends romance, adventure, and faerie lore into an unforgettable read.

Hey Nerds, Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of You, Again by the amazing Kate Goldbeck. We had Kate on a while back to discuss her fabulous debut novel! This romcom set in New York City gives us the perfect amount of nostalgia with witty banter. Will Ari and Josh get their happily ever after??

Summary:
Can they stop hating each other long enough to fall in love?

When Ari and Josh first meet, the wrong kind of sparks fly. They hate each other. Instantly.

A free-spirited, struggling comedian who likes to keep things casual, Ari sublets, takes gigs, and she never sleeps over after hooking up. Born-and-bred Manhattanite Josh has ambitious plans: Take the culinary world by storm, find The One, and make her breakfast in his spotless kitchen. They have absolutely nothing in common . . . except that they happen to be sleeping with the same woman.

Ari and Josh never expect their paths to cross again. But years later, as they’re both reeling from ego-bruising breakups, a chance encounter leads to a surprising connection: friendship. Turns out, spending time with your former nemesis is fun when you’re too sad to hate each other—and too sad for hate sex.

As friends-without-benefits, they find comfort in late-night Netflix binges, swiping through each other’s online dating profiles, and bickering across boroughs. It’s better than romance. Until one night, the unspoken boundaries of their platonic relationship begin to blur. . . .

The time is here, we are finally covering the EPIC story of "Manacled", by Senlinyu. Join us, Chanel, Stacy, Ashley as we journey into the layers of this incredible fanfiction.

Magic is more than just wands and spells; it's about the emotional bonds that form in its shadow, the sacrifices made for love, and the strength found in the midst of a war-torn world. We dissect the moments of vulnerability that bring characters like Hermione and Draco to life, moving from the strategic tension in war council meetings to the intimacy of their blossoming relationship.

Warning:
 This work is dark. Rape and non-consensual sex are a significant and ongoing aspect of the plot. There are also character deaths, psychological trauma, descriptions of battlefield violence, and references to torture. Reader discretion is advised.

Author's Note:
The characters in this story are not mine: they belong to JK Rowling, whom I happen to not be. The initial inspiration of this plot occurred when watching the first episode of The Handmaid’s Tale. In homage there are elements of it maintained throughout the story. The title High Reeve was drawn from Lady_of_Clunn’s use in her story Uncoffined.

This story diverges from canon following the conclusion of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

Summary: 
Harry Potter is dead. In the aftermath of the war, in order to strengthen the might of the magical world, Voldemort enacts a repopulation effort. Hermione Granger has an Order secret, lost but hidden in her mind, so she is sent as an enslaved surrogate to the High Reeve until her mind can be cracked.

The time is here, we are finally covering the EPIC story of "Manacled". Join us, Chanel, Stacy, Ashley and our special guest Ashli as we journey into the layers of this incredible fanfiction. We kick off the episode with a deep exploration of the first part of the lauded fanfiction, "Manacled" by, Senlinyu where we delve into its dark and gripping themes, touching on elements of violence, murder, and non-consensual activity. We draw parallels with the anxiety-inducing nature of The Handmaid's Tale.

Our voyage takes an emotional turn as we tackle the first chapters of "Hermione Granger and the High Reeve." We shine a light on Hermione's dire circumstances, her capture by Voldemort, and her struggle to recall the war. We also contemplate on the unique concept of manacles used to suppress magic and the twist of Hermione's assignment to Draco Malfoy, the High Reeve.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by the amazing Suzanne Collins. This is the prequel to The Hunger Games series and we are beyond excited to discuss it. Check out our thoughts and favorite parts! Snow lands on top.

Summary:
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth annual Hunger Games. In the Capital, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute.

The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined -- every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favor or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute... and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of The Hurricane Wars written by the  incredibly talented and kind Thea Guanzon. We had Thea on earlier this month to discuss this amazing novel and we know everyone will LOVE it! Check out our thoughts and favorite parts!

Summary:

The heart is a battlefield.

All Talasyn has ever known is the Hurricane Wars. Growing up an orphan in a nation under siege by the ruthless Night Emperor, Talasyn has found her family among the soldiers who fight for freedom. But she is hiding a deadly secret: light magic courses through her veins, a blazing power believed to have been wiped out years ago that can cut through the Night Empire's shadows.

Prince Alaric, the emperor's only son and heir, has been forged into a weapon by his father. Tasked with obliterating any threats to the Night Empire's rule with the strength of his armies and mighty Shadow magic, Alaric has never been bested. That is until he sees Talasyn burning brightly on the battlefield with the magic that killed his grandfather, turned his father into a monster, and ignited the Hurricane Wars. In a clash of light and dark, their powers merge and create a force the likes of which has never been seen.

Talasyn and Alaric both know this war can only end with them. But a greater threat is coming, and the strange new magic they can create together could be the only way to overcome it. Thrust into an uneasy alliance, they will confront the secrets at the heart of the war and find, in each other, a searing passion--one that could save their world...or destroy it.

An exquisite fantasy brimming with unforgettable characters, sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance, and richly drawn worlds, The Hurricane Wars marks the breathtaking debut of an extraordinary new writer.

In other words, a sapphic person is someone who falls in love with, desires and fantasizes about other women. Sapphic is a word for people who love women. It is gender-inclusive and includes lesbians, bisexual/pansexual, queer women as well as nonbinary people who like women. In other words, it is broader and more open than the similar term "women who love women"(definition is from https://lesbesocial.com/lesbian-dictionary/sapphic-meaning).

Eddie Munson doesn't mind working at the Family Video Store. It's a nice sense of normalcy (not to mention money) and he gets to see Robin more because of it. However, between working together and sharing the same best friend, he's also been seeing a lot more of Steve Harrington. 

He wants nothing more than to enjoy mindless fun with his friends now that everything with Vecna is over, but Eddie's finding it hard to move on from what happened. Even if the strangest thing in his life right now was simply the fact he and Steve Harrington might actually be friends.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of Forget Me Not, written by none other than Julie freaking Soto!!  Julie is a published author and we are so excited to jump in to this fluffy, grumpy X sunshine trope filled book! We also discuss other favorite rom coms and catch up! We are obsessed with this incredible story and we know you nerds will be too!

Book Summary:
An ambitious wedding planner must work with her grumpy florist ex, whose heart she broke, on the most high-profile wedding of her career, in this spicy and emotional romance from popular fanfic author Julie Soto.

He loves me; he loves me not...

Ama Torres loves being a wedding planner. But with a mother who has been married more times than you can count on your fingers, Ama has decided that marriage is not the route for her. But weddings? Weddings are amazing. As a small business owner, she knows how to match her clients with the perfect vendor to give them the wedding of their dreams. Well, almost perfect…

Elliot hates being a florist, most of the time. When his father left him the flower shop, he considered it a burden, but he’s stuck with it. Just like how he’s stuck with the way he proposed to Ama, his main collaborator and girlfriend (or was she?) two years ago. But flowers have grown on him, just like Ama did. And flowers can’t run off and never speak to him again, like Ama did.

When Ama is hired to plan a celebrity wedding that will bring her business national exposure, there's a catch: Elliot is already contracted to design the flowers. Things are not helped by the two brides, who see the obvious chemistry between Ama and Elliot and are determined to set them up, not knowing their complicated history. Add in a meddling ex-boss, and a reality TV film crew documenting every step of the wedding prep, and Ama and Elliot's hearts are not only in jeopardy again, but this time, their livelihoods are too.

This week we are taking a re-read on the episode Astronomy in Reverse, Part 1. We hope you enjoy a look back on one of our favorite episodes while we continue to enjoy our July 4th holiday break! Since July 4th is Steve Rogers birthday we thought it was only fitting to celebrate him with this re-read. Happy Birthday Captain America, we love you!

Summary:
A year after the Winter Soldier failed his mission in DC, Bucky Barnes is doing his best to stay under the radar from both Hydra and Steve Rogers. His hope for a peaceful day-to-day life in limbo goes awry, however, when he meets Queens’ newest hero; a pure-hearted kid with a death wish and a ridiculous pair of red and blue pajamas. The last thing Steve expects when he finally tracks Bucky down is that, not only has the man been living in Queens all this time, right under his nose, but also that, in the two years since they last saw each other, Bucky somehow acquired a kid. Alternatively: How Peter Parker effectively fucks over Bucky Barnes, and also totally saves him.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the Marvel fic Astronomy in Reverse by Pansley

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley catch up and discuss Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! It is written by the great Jane Austin and Set Grahame- Smith. This story is a twist on the iconic Pride and Prejudice, with zombies sprinkled in! We hope you enjoy this as much as the zombies enjoy brains!

Story Recap:
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.”

So begins Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, an expanded edition of the beloved Jane Austen novel featuring all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie mayhem. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she’s soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield. Can Elizabeth vanquish the spawn of Satan? And overcome the social prejudices of the class-conscious landed gentry? Complete with romance, heartbreak, swordfights, cannibalism, and thousands of rotting corpses.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of The Love Hypothesis, a sweet fake dating trope story. It is written by the incredible Ali Hazelwood. This story gives major Ben Solo and Rey vibes! Get ready to jump in to hyperspace with this pick of the month!


Story Recap:
As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.

That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding... six-pack abs.

Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss the second part of the Astoria and Draco fanfic
Always, Astoria by our fabulous friend Thebaroness1980. We are so excited to explore this story with you! Story link below:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31099430/chapters/76838297

Fic Story Recap:
Astoria Greengrass has it all: she’s beautiful, smart, strong-willed and hello gets to attend school at Beauxtons. All of that changes when she arrives at Hogwarts for the Triwizard Tournament. Icy welcomes from her sister, a handsome Hufflepuff, party-having slytherins, a grumpy blonde and unheard prophecy is just the beginning. When love and hate intertwine it can lead to a passion so heated it burns both alive.

Describe & explain TAGS:
○ Love/Hate: When two characters are in love but denial of it at the same time. They love the other person but they hide it by arguing/fighting.This can be exciting because as we all know there is a fine line between love and hate

○  Wax play: is a form of temperature play practiced in a BDSM context, in which wax from a candle is dripped onto a person's naked skin, in order to introduce a slight burning sensation to the skin. This is considered a moderately advanced form of play. (thanks wikipedia!)

○  Multiple POV: The story is not told solely by one character but two or more. In this fic we get Draco and Astoria’s POV at different times.

Stacy, Chanel, and Ashley discuss a one shot, Sneaking Onto a Train by Literally. Story linked below:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/42827043?view_adult=true

Summary: 
"What is it with you and wanting to commit train-related crimes?" Albus turned to look at his friend, aghast. "I don't want to commit any train-related crimes. Or, actually, I don't want to commit any crimes at all! This is only the first time. Jumping off the Hogwarts Express is not a crime. I'm sure of it."
