Hiya, dreamers ✨
Join Anna and Ashley in this week’s episode as they tussle with their Monday madness and ponder what it means to be a book girlie in a corporate world. This one’s a faithful spiral—no single destination, just a constellation of realizations and epiphanies. So cozy up, dreamer. Things are about to get existential up in here.
Surprise, Dreamers!
You’re in for a treat. Part 2 of our wonderful interview with the lovely Liselle Sambury is here! 🎉
This surprise episode drop is in honor of the release of her latest book, A Mastery of Monsters, and what better way to celebrate than with more Liselle?
Join Ashley and Camille as they attempt a rapid-fire round of questions… only to immediately get delightfully sidetracked (you know how it goes). What starts off quick and snappy turns into a deeper, more hilarious conversation where we really get to know Liselle.
She shares her favorite fictional characters, go-to authors, and even which fictional world she thinks she’d actually survive in, and that’s just the beginning.
Hit play, Dreamers, this one’s a gem. ✨
Calling all dark academia and fantasy lovers! ✨📚 In this special episode, we’re joined by the brilliant Liselle Sambury to talk about her upcoming release, A Mastery of Monsters 🐉🗝️. From secret societies to monstrous mysteries, Liselle takes us deep into her worldbuilding process, shares the inspirations behind her latest trilogy, and even drops a few exclusive sneak peeks 👀🌌. This is one you don’t wnat to miss dreamers!
Hey dreamers! Join Camille and Anna for a quick, heated yap as they dive into fictional worlds and ask: Would we survive? From Austenland to Westeros, tune in for some unpredictable fate-guessing and a whole lot of laughs!
Hiya, Sweet Dreamers! ✨ This one was simply too fun to record 🎧. Listen in as we deep dive and discuss all the tropes we love to hate 📚. It’s time to yap, cackle, and teehee 🤭. Join in for the giggles and hot takes!
Hello dreamers 💫,
Oh, do we have a treat for you 🍬🎙️! We had the immense pleasure of talking to the one and only Lucy Rose about her thrilling (and nauseating, in the best way, of course 🤢❤️) debut novel ‘The Lamb’ 🐑📖. This haunting twist of folklore left us contemplating the thin line between desires of the flesh and desire for flesh - leaving us hungry for more than food…
Listen in as we breakdown:
- carrot-driven research
- the art of crafting folklore
- and suspending time in fiction 💌🎧.
We’re SAT and enraptured as Lucy schools us on the balance between starvation and satiation. Every gritty, gore-filled detail kept us readers morbidly hooked 🔪👀.
This episode is a steamy, spooky, silly hotpot of only the most interesting topics 🔥. Honestly? 80% of this episode is just Lucy being our therapist 🛋️🧠 and casually dropping TED Talk-level insights 🎤✨, while simultaneously being a very wholesome girliepop DMC 💖.
Hey Dreamers,
In this episode, Ashley and Anna Maria have a slight existential crisis on the eve of Ashley's 30th birthday.
Hi dreamers!
It’s March! Which means it’s Women’s History Month! To mark the joyous and complicated splendor of the feminine experience, we’ve dedicated this episode to discussing all things Girlhood, Sisterhood, and Womanhood.
Listen in as we unpack what girlhood means to us and get to the heart of the topic. As always, we get a little carried away—yapping about books, apocalypse hypotheticals, and life struggles—but hey, at this point it's expected.
So sit down, kiki with us, and enjoy—this one’s for the girls! 💖✨
Hiya, dreamers! ✨

Hot from the press, ‘Till Death is shrouded in secrets—and if that’s not intriguing enough, it’s set against the vibrant backdrop of a Nigerian wedding. 💒📖

Hi Dreamers,
Welcome back to another episode of Carried Away: The Conversation. This week, as always, we went a bit rogue and what initially started off as a discussion on books that shaped our identities, quickly turned into who knows what.
We hope you enjoy!
Hey Dreamers,
Join us in our latest episode as we dive into an age-old debate: should we really not judge a book by its cover, or do aesthetics play a bigger role in our reading experience than we admit?
Listen in as we chat about the covers that just don’t do it for us and celebrate the ones that hit the nail on the head.
As usual, we might lose the plot a little, but we always find our way back.
Enjoy the episode!
Hi Dreamers,
Welcome to season 2 of Carried Away: The Conversation!
