Listen Later

šŸŽ‰ One Year of Reads & Rants! šŸŽ‰


We’re celebrating our 1-year anniversary with a deep dive into Hannah Whitten’s For the Throne—a dark romantasy sequel full of shadowy magic, morally gray characters, and enemies-to-lovers tension that had us swooning and ranting.

That’s not all– we’re joined by a most specialist guest and fantasy superfan, Liz Kluge!Ā 


This episode we’re breaking down:

  • šŸ–¤ Trope Talk: gothic fairy-tale retelling, spicy enemies-to-lovers, bonds of sisterhood, reluctant monsters, and ā€œI’ll burn the world to save youā€ energy

  • 🌲 Wilderwood vs. Shadowlands — light vs. dark, roots vs. shadows, love vs. sacrifice

  • 😭 That bittersweet finale we’re still not over

If you’re searching for your next BookTok romantasy obsession, love a messy morally gray love interest, or can’t resist a little enemies-to-lovers banter, this one’s for you. Thanks for sticking with us for a whole year—here’s to many more episodes of books, banter, and rants šŸ„‚
