We are Myriam & Elyse, your Book Bound Besties! Follow along as we dive deep into your favourite books, have unhinged chats, and theorize about what’s to come.

• This week we are covering From Blood and Ash Chapters 9, 10, 11, 12
• We discuss the wonderful relationship between Poppy and Vikter
• We discuss the heartbreak of the Tulis family
• We discuss Poppy’s naivety that she could change society from the inside
• Poppy finally reveals her face to Hawke and his reaction shocks everyone
• We delight in how girl-coded Poppy and Tawny’s relationship is
• We compare the Ladies-in-Wait fainting to Cressida getting Prince Friedrich from Bridgerton Season 1
• Elyse brings up the inconsistency of Poppy being allowed to wear red to the Rite
• Myriam laments pop culture’s obsession that glasses or a mask will hide a person’s identity (think Hannah Montana, Superman, A Cinderella Story)
• Your Book Bound Besties give a little history lesson on dialects, Egyptian version of Hollywood and other such tangents
• We debate whether horror culture is pop culture or niche

Fact check on Daughter of No Worlds by Carissa Broadbent: It was indeed written before Serpents and the Wings of Night.

Enjoy the Secret of the Nile soundtrack (Grand Hotel) for a nice classical music vibe
