Get cozy with Adrienne and Annamarie this episode as they spend Solstice in Velaris with your favorite fae and discuss the ACOTAR series' wintery novella, "A Court of Frost and Starlight" by Sarah J. Maas. Finished in just the nick of time, Annamarie tells Adrienne her thoughts on how this story shines not only on our heroes and heroines but our friends in the Inner Circle as we get a sneak peek into their little universes post-war. Together they giggle, gossip, and appreciate everything this seemingly extended epilogue has to offer.
