- Did the naga give Feyre a lobotomy because what else could explain her sudden personality shift?

Join the Bookalicious girlies for Part 1 of Sarah J. Maas’ best selling novel A Court of Throne & Roses which came highly recommended from Friend of Pod - Lexi!

The sisters postulate why this series is considered YA when it feels more A. Candice’s final assessment is that due to Feyre being insufferable, the series was classified as YA. Feyre is SO insufferable Chrissy wonders if she actually likes YA or if she only likes John Greene.

Get into the Christie-mas spirit as the Bookalicious girlies get into a Christmas Muuuuurder Mystery by Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot Christmas!

We start off with a very detailed author recap on Dame Agatha Christie uncovering some of Agatha’s mysteries and her slightly circular family tree. The sisters get into the minds of the killer by plotting and scheming their own murder strategy of Old Simeon Lee. Candice gets skeeved by everyone sexualizing the very young Pilar & Chrissy convinces Candice that David is NOT a closeted 1920’s gay.

Thanks for joining and make sure to email us your questions for a Reader Q&A episode coming up!

Candice and Chrissy rehash Fox's Tongue and, by the end of it, know about 65% of what just happened. BUT we are here to deliver all of our wisdom from the book so you may know more about what's going on!!

And, in the beginning, we discuss our own Gypsy Rose experience and whether cottage cheese is only for old people. Thanks for joining our club!

Join us as we recap part one of Fox's Tongue and Kirin's Bone by Allison M. Kovaks! If you haven't heard of this book, we highly recommend it. And we especially recommend listening to our recap as you read to help sift through the many moving parts of this tale.

In the author summary, Candice doesn't talk at all about Allison Kovaks and instead explains all the German and Japanese folktale lore behind the book, so now the book makes a lot more sense to Chrissy. We use the magic of Mariah Carey to figure out what's happening in this book and make predictions for next time.

Thanks for joining our club!

**Next on the docket is Hercule Poirot's Christmas by Agatha Christie! Get your copy today to read along with us!**

In this VERY special episode the Bookalicious sisters have their first ever podcast GUEST(s) from The Kindred Kindles Podcast with Krystin & Taylor.

The girls discuss all things Freida McFadden (SPOILERS FOR BOOK 1 + 2 OF THE HOUSEMAID), true crime, and pop-culture references only Candice (and I'm certain all the listeners) know.

Thank you for joining our club and make sure to visit Kindred Kindles!
