So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and prepare for a not-so-great-rollercoaster of emotions and laughter.

Bonus points if you can count how many times we say 'raw dawg' and how many times Mal names a disease that isn't connected with the correct symptoms.

In this episode, Ariel, Paige and Mal get into chapters 11-20 of Neon Gods by Katee Robert. Things are heating up as we explore Hades’ theorized security rituals, Persephone’s happy days, and an unforgettable trip to the sex dungeon. Get ready for wild predictions, hilarious theories, and a very chaotic surprise at the end of the episode. Pour yourself a strong drink, get comfy, and join us for another round of unfiltered, unhinged book banter. Let’s get snarky!

Welcome to the NEW and improved version of Snark Notes. In this episode, Mal, Paige and Ariel get intothe first ten chapters of Neon Gods by Katee Robert. Join us as we laugh, gasp, and cringe our way through Persephone’s desperate escape from Zeus’s wrinkly sack and her 'unexpected' meeting with Hades’ in his dark and very public dungeon. Expect wild predictions, outrageous character breakdowns, and more chaotic banter than you can handle. Grab your wine and let’s get feral!

Welcome back to another episode of wild interpretations and hilarious character analysis as we dive into "Unravel Me" chapters 43-48. This time around, Juliette’s taking "touch-starved" to a whole new level – she’s practically touch depraved! She's always talking about touching someone.

Then, get ready for a comparison that might just be our best yet: Warner as a male Linda Belcher. Remember when Linda went full 'Blom'? That’s Warner in these chapters. He's blond, bold, and... a bit of a rat, selling out anyone to get ahead. But don't worry, we unpack all his rat-like charms in detail.

Amidst the drama, Kenji's covering for Juliette, Adam's spiraling further into his post-breakup vortex, and Warner? He’s still somehow managing to be the ultimate hot guy, despite his newfound status as our favorite rodent. How does he do it? We’ve got theories!

Join us as we navigate the complex emotions, betrayals, and unexpected twists in these explosive chapters. Grab your headphones, and let’s get started – this is one episode you won't want to miss! 🎤

This episode short in title but huge in content! Ariel's at the front this time, guiding us through the twists and turns, including Kenji's rather unique approach to making friends (or should we say... drugging them? 😂).

Then, get ready for a montage of fighting. But wait, there’s a twist! Mal’s got this wild idea to cast our favorite "Twilight" characters in a hypothetical "Shatter Me" movie. Picture Edward Cullen playing Juliette's world, and you've got the gist. It’s as hilarious as it sounds, trust us.

And let’s not forget the main event: Warner’s height, standing proud at 5'9". In a world obsessed with towering heroes, we're here to celebrate our beloved Short Kings. Ariel puts it perfectly – not everyone needs to be a 7'8" faerie to steal the show. Warner, with his complexity and charm, stands tall (pun intended) among YA’s most captivating characters.

Humor, heart, and a healthy dose of appreciation for characters of all heights, this episode has it all. Celebrate our Short (er) Kings – because 5'9" isn't even short!

Hey Main Characters, we’ve realized Tahereh Mafi's big secret. This all started out as a Draco Malfoy fanfic. Just hear us out... In these last few chapters, Warner and his dad are giving us major Draco and Lucius Malfoy vibes, and we’re here to spill all the tea on it. 🍵📚

But first, prepare yourself for an immediate detour about two minutes into the episode as we dive into the ocean – or rather, Mal’s absolute fear of it. She’s got this wild tale about jellyfish in bottles (yep, it’s as weird as it sounds).

Then we get right back into Juliette totally being a total badass as she works her way through a crazy hostage situation, and we can’t help but see her channeling her inner darkness. And Warner? Oh, he’s doing his best to rewrite his Malfoy destiny by jumping in to save Juliette yet again. Is it just me, or is it getting a little magical in here?

So, if you’re in the mood for some deep dives into Warner’s Draco-like dilemma, Juliette’s newfound edge, and a couple of laugh-out-loud stories from our own lives, you’ve gotta tune in. Start listening!

Chapters 19-24 of "Unravel Me" in this episode takes breaking up to a whole new level. Who needs a clean break when you can just zap all the energy out of your boyfriend and send him packing...to the hospital?

In a twist that has us rethinking relationship strategies, Juliette's unique approach to ending things with Adam sparks the ultimate question from Paige: "Who else can she put into the hospital?" It's breakups, dystopian style – because why do it over text when you can do it with superpowers?

As our crew steals supplies and encounters a surprise visitor (hello, Warner!), we're all eyes on Juliette's knack for misreading situations. And let's talk about Juliette's flirting spree. Fresh off her "breakup," we're unpacking all her flirtations.

Kenji's over here playing the tough love card, pretty much done with the sob stories. "Yeah, well, we all have one of those," but Mal jumps in to remind us that Juliette's feelings aren't just teenage angst – they're real, they're raw, and they deserve some airtime.

Now listen up and tune in to hear more from your favorite dystopian drama queens.

Inspired by Taylor Swift's new album and a hilariously out-of-left-field quote from our boy Winston, we're diving deep into the world of dystopian discomfort this episode.

Let's talk about the quote that kicked it all off: "I could kick a soldier's crotch for some coffee." Mal's reaction? "That's a new one for me. THAT is not a shared experience." And MCs, we're just as bewildered and amused.

But it's not all kicks and giggles. Amidst the laughter, we're tackling the heartache of Juliette and Adam's breakup. Ah, young love... Poor Adam. #BlueBalls4Life.

We're also peeling back the layers on Adam's newfound ability to disable, and Juliette's journey above ground. It's a time of change, of growth, and of realizing that sometimes, the person you need to save the most is yourself.

Join us as we laugh, cry, and maybe kick a few metaphorical crotches along the way. Tune in, grab your favorite coffee (no soldiers harmed in the making), and let's unravel this chapter together.

Hey there, Main Characters! Buckle up, because we're heading straight into "Unravel Me" chapters 7-12, and things are getting... sparkly? That's right, we're tossing Juliette into the Twilight Zone this week, dubbing her the Edward Cullen of dystopian YA. Only instead of dazzling you with her skin, she might just accidentally kill you. Oops.

Imagine Juliette murmuring, "As if you could outrun me, as if you could fight me off," and you've got the gist of our playful comparison. It's a mix of melodrama and superpowers, with Juliette stepping into the role of a brooding, not-so-sparkly vampire. But fear not, no vampires (or soldiers) were harmed in the making of this podcast.

But don't worry, we're not all jokes and vampire references here. We're digging deep into the trust game at Omega Point. Castle's got that mysterious leader vibe going on, but can we really trust him? And then there's Kenji, brushing off Juliette's whirlwind of emotions like she's just hit puberty. Come on, dude, she's juggling teenage hormones AND a lethal touch. Give her a break!

Speaking of emotions, let's talk about how everyone's expecting Juliette to have the wisdom and emotional control of a centuries-old wizard. Hello, she's a teenager with the weight of the world on her shoulders, not Dumbledore! Can we cut her some slack and maybe, I don't know, offer a support group or something? "Hi, my name is Juliette, and I can kill you with a touch." Group hug—wait, maybe not.

So give it a listen... PLEASE :)
