Welcome to Not Another Heroine....the podcast where we break the best and worst pronunciations of your favorite words. This week we're talking about all the books in no particular order: the good, the bad, and the spicy. 

We'll rage hate on a few booktok flops, preview our next reads, and reveal our pick for best heroine.

Books that make an appearance in this episode: 

The Fourth Wing - The House of Beating Wings - Kingdom of the Wicked - The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue - Vicious - Master of Crows - ACOTAR/ACOMAF - Twilight - Half a Soul - Poison Study - A Lady's Tutor - Fifty Shades of Gray - The Princess Diaries - Air Head - The Mediator Series - The It Girl Series - The A List - Gideon the 9th - The Iron Widow - A Lady for a Duke - Entreat Me - The Elf Tangent - The Emperor's Edge Series - Enigma - The Serpent and the Wings of Night - Belladonna - A Girl Called Samson - The Stardust Thief - Spin the Dawn - This Woven Kingdom - The Brass Kingdom - Daughter of the Salt King - A Promise of Fire - The Undying King - Crown Duel - Graceling

This week we're finishing Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier. We love this book, which reads like part epic and part fairy tale, but there are several scenes that may not be for all readers. https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/13928

There's no such thing as too much Grace Draven (everyone needs to read Master of Crows), but this week Katie took Jordan up on one of her recommendations and read Entreat Me. This is a beauty and the beast story with a more mature heroine and not quite the kind of ending you'd expect out of such a cookie-cutter fairy tale. https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/18811222

There wasn't a mage, vampire, or dark faerie prince on a single page but Amy Harmon delivered plenty of adventure and romance in A Girl Called Samson. If Disney's Mulan was a formative experience for you, this heroine might be your new favorite. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58769584-a-girl-called-samson?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=EQ9WycRI2y&rank=1
