This week on Read Between the Wines, we’re back with the results of our chaotic new segment — and let’s just say… this was not a fair fight. 😳🍷
After pulling challenges from our “Pour Decisions” game, we each had to read a book chosen by the other — and the results could not have been more different.
Deb read Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez, a lighthearted, feel-good rom-com that completely won her over. Meanwhile, Mandy was assigned Under Your Scars by Ariel Anderson… a dark, intense romance that was very much not her vibe. 😭🔥
In this episode, we dive into both books with honest reactions, comparing: ✨ Light romance vs dark romance ✨ Comfort reads vs emotional damage ✨ Character dynamics and relationship arcs ✨ What worked (and what really didn’t)
We also talk about whether stepping outside our comfort zones actually worked — and if we’ll be making more Pour Decisions in the future (questionable 😏).
If you love romance books, dark romance, rom-coms, honest book reviews, and chaotic book challenges, this episode is for you.
Grab a glass and come spiral with us. 🍷
