*Long sigh*. It's a tragedy, how many amazing books there are in the world that don't have thriving fandoms. We understand this horrible occurrence well, and we're here today to rope you into reading these books so that we don't have to fangirl alone! It's a whole, wide range of genres spanning Thriller to Realism and hope that you will jump on the bandwagon of loving these books too!

You've heard of one-star reviews, but the ones that we've collected for you today are some sort of whole new level. There's roasting, there's hating, there's... poetry? Prepare yourselves for a crazy ride as we laugh our way through these cracking reviews. We also discuss what our current obsessions are (Hey-no judging!) while outing ourselves to strangers online. This is fine.

Here it is! The second part to our Harry Potter talk. This episode is all about the wonderful, thriving Harry Potter fandom of crackships and fanfiction. We're coming to you with some sorting of characters from other books (Charlie- Wandering Wild, Niyx- Akarnae, Bryce- Crescent City, and Rhiannon- Fourth Wing) and a fun fanfiction guessing game! We also discuss our favourite ships, fan theories, headcanons and more!

Welcome to our discussion all about Harry Potter! The love, hate, and no politics (you're welcome). We were devastated when we didn't receive our Hogwarts letters, and we now have a probably unhealthy love that we will now be expressing onto you all! We talk favourite magical creatures, moments, controversial opinions, what we want to see in the HBO show, and more! (Which may include losing our credibility- yikes!)

Hi everybody! This is a quick announcement just to say we won't be posting an episode this week. Sorry! We will be back in two weeks, though so look out for that.
See you soon!
Oof.
Yep. These were baaaaaad. The books that had us clenching our fists and questioning what are we really doing with our lives. We formally apologise to anyone who likes these books. Join us as we ask ourselves: What makes a book cringey? What are tropes or lines you hate? Are there any books where you liked the cringe? We also have a mystery opener, so prepare yourselves for a treat.
Unfortunately we will not be posting an episode in two weeks time due to family arrangements. We'll be back two weeks after that though!

We all love a good sip of fresh, hot murder. As one of our favourite genres, boy do we have some recs for you! Whether it's a cold case turned hot, or a 'I was the first person to see the dead' story, we'll eat it up! We also talk fan art and tbr lists, so strap in, get a hot blanket and pretend that all this is probably just fiction.

This episode was SO FUN to record!! We're joined with our good friend Ava to talk book recs, play a few games and discuss some fun questions! As well as books we also talk about some pop culture and just have a good time! This episode is a little bit more PG-13 so it might include a few more questionable jokes. It also goes for a long, long time. Oops!! Our only question is...
Hermione x Ginny?
Recs:
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo (3/5 spice)
Red, White, and Royal Blue (4/5)
Last Night at the Telegraph Club (3.5/5)

The Queen herself has bestowed upon us this marvel of a book! And we're here today to rave all about it and tell you what had us screaming, crying, and throwing it across the room. We talk the plot, the characters, our favourite moments, and our overall rating! There's also some snorting at Pinterest pages, but don't worry that's only about the first 15 minutes. Hope you enjoy!
Note: As said in the Wandering Wild author's note, there will be references to mental health issues in this episode. If you don't feel ready to listen, and it may be triggering- hold off until the next one. We love you!

We won't be ashamed! This week we're talking (but mostly rambling) about our favourite weird sub-genres that we wish we could read more of! We're here to drag you into loving these as much as we do, and let you go: "OH MY GOSH I want to read more books like this!" -If only they were a category on Goodreads. We also talk our ideal book weather and the odd podcast phenomenon that we can't escape. So settle in, get yourself a good cup of tea, and prepare yourselves for our theses on these AMAZING topics.
Ps. Our sincerest apologies for our microphone hoping for our demise. The audio is rough at the start, but gets better. Just a warning!

We know you love them! This episode we're discussing our favourite villains! (who are *cough cough* definitely misunderstood) Some of them are tragic, some give us the giggles, and some are just plain mean. We also talk a couple of books that were a DNF and how we feel about lending our precious babies to people. Strap in and prepare yourselves for the defence of the people who probably shouldn't be defended.
Books our villains are from:
A Court of Thorns and Roses
The Girl With No Reflection
Akarnae
Harry Potter
Red Queen
(NOTE: This episode will contain spoilers for all the listed books. Just warning you!)
