In this episode, Scarlett and Jenae take a walk down memory lane (or maybe a dark alley) as they rerate some of their past Goodreads reviews. Did that 5-star favorite really hold up? Was that 2-star read actually a hidden gem?

They also dive into the hilarious world of one-star reviews—from the dramatic to the downright unhinged—and share some of the funniest ones they could find. It’s bookish chaos you won’t want to miss.

In this episode of The Step Sisters Podcast, we dive deep into chapters 30–36 of Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros—and the tension is sky-high. We unpack our growing suspicions about Ridoc, explore how Aaric might've pieced together the truth about Xaden's deadly past, and theorize what this means for the bigger picture. Plus, we’re officially campaigning for prequels: give us the backstories of Varrish and Lilith already! These chapters are packed, and so is this discussion.

Jenae shares a Throne of Glass update, and it’s safe to say that she will be quite busy for the foreseeable, while Scarlett shares her most recent read, Red Rising by Pierce Brown.
