Booked for Two

Episode 39 | REVIEW & RATING: Blood of Hercules by Jasmine Mas | SPOILER FREE!

Listen Later

Spoiler-free first. Spoilers later.

Scott and Gen give their personal ratings up top (no spoilers), then we switch gears and talk favorite moments in a clearly marked spoiler section. Quick, honest, and useful if you’re deciding whether to read it.

In this episode (spoiler-free portion):

  • Our individual ratings + why (voice, pacing, worldbuilding, spice factor).
  • Who this book is for (and who it’s not).
  • What makes Alexis different from standard FMCs.
  • Why the prose/style works (neurodivergent POV done right).
  • Trope talk: how Jasmine Mas leans in, twists, and satirizes—without losing the emotion.

    • Then (spoiler section):

    • Favorite scenes & payoffs (yes, that chapter).
    • Standout character beats (and the ones that broke us).
    • What we think Mas is setting up next—and the receipts we’re bringing into Book 2.

      • What’s next:

      Our Deep Dive into Bonds of Hercules kicks off November 13. Read with us, bring your theories, and let’s get unhinged together.
