    GREYWAREN by Maggie Stiefvater
    Aug 4 2023
    We are once again returning after an extended absence, and we are so excited to finally get to discuss GREYWAREN by Maggie Stiefvater! We talk multiple-series arcs, plots that run on vibes and vibes only, and Margaret making fools of us all. SPOILER WARNING: We talk pretty in-depth about all of the books in Maggie's connected RAVEN CYCLE and DREAMER books, so if you haven't finished both series and you wish to remain unspoiled, we recommend you wait on this one and come back when you're done.

  • Netflix's SHADOW AND BONE, SEASON 2

    Netflix's SHADOW AND BONE, SEASON 2
    Apr 7 2023
    THE GANG'S BACK, Y'ALL! After a VERY long hiatus, we are thrilled to be back with our Grishaverse pals Jessie and Aubrey to sit down and discuss everything SHADOW AND BONE Season 2 on Netflix! We talk new characters, our favorite (and least favorite) adaptive choices, plot convergences and that breakneak pacing, and everything in between. SPOILER WARNING: The same rules that applied to our coverage of the first season will apply here as well; we decided that the only way we can properly analyze how the show fits into the entire Grishaverse was to include the entire written Grishaverse into our analysis - this includes everything from the SHADOW AND BONE trilogy, the SIX OF CROWS duology, the KING OF SCARS duology, and of course the first season of the Netflix show. That said, we don't get too spoilery, but if you want to remain completely unspoiled on everything from the books we recommend that you come back and listen when you're done reading. As always, thanks to Martha Riley for our art and Djempirical for our music.

    KINGDOM OF ASH by Sarah J Maas
    Jun 21 2022
    Special guest and benevolant book club overlord, Aubrey, returns to help us wrap up the THRONE OF GLASS series with KINGDOM OF ASH by Sarah J Maas! We talk final arcs, ships, trauma, torture, some more trauma, character deaths, even more trauma, and so much more! I hope y'all like crying, because we do a whole lot of it in this episode. We've included spoiler sections for all of our THRONE OF GLASS episodes so far, and even though this is the last book in the series, this episode is no exception. If you've read all the books in the expanded Maas universe (ACOTAR and Crescent City), stick around for a spoiler section that will dive into possible connections and implications between those books and these! Don't worry, if you need to bail we'll give you plenty of warning before we wade into spoiler territory. Stick around til the end where we announce what we have planned for the future, and don't forget to rate and review us on iTunes! As always, thanks to Martha Riley for our art and Djempirical for our music. And a big thanks to Aubrey for joining us!
