141: The Spicy Book Chat: Two Therapists Dissect Romantasy with Vanessa Marin


Listen Later

You are cordially invited to tune into our spicy book chat!

I invited Sex Therapist and New York Times Bestselling Author Vanessa Marin on to the podcast to talk about all things Fantasy Fiction (especially of the spicy variety).

Together we dissect:

*What exactly is "smut?"

*Why is fantasy so appealing?

*What are some of the benefits for women reading spicy romance novels?

*What are some of the tricky parts of these books to keep in mind?

*Are smutty books basically just porn?

*How can romantasy reading be a reclamation of time and pleasure for the busy woman?

AND of course we are sharing our favorite books to add to your list and what we are reading next (download the list for yourself here: https://courses.drcassidymft.com/bookrecs
