Tiny Shed Book Club

It's a tangent time! On this episode Tia and Chandler cover their current reads; A Well Trained Wife: My Escape From Christian Patriarchy by Tia Levings, Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe, Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang, A Man Called Ove by Frederick Bachman, Quicksilver by Callie Hart, and The Wolf King by Lauren Palphreyman. Listen in to hear who forgot their cinnamon roll, who is not up to date with the latest ACOTAR news, and who is a little h*e for love triangles (hint: it’s not Chandler). Big shoutout to our listeners Ali and all the Jos!

Tia and Chandler have triumphed (and sometimes got lost) in the tandem read of Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn by Sarah J Maas. Join for the full breakdown of evil tummy rubbing, familial generational trauma, who the major Chaol sympathizer is, and who demands all the smooches. Listen until the end to hear what they rated both books and their plan for finishing the series!

Welcome to another Tangent episode! In this episode Chandler cannot pronounce ‘sans’ and Tia reminisces on her Star Wars one-hit-wonder. They recap their current reads; Zodiac Academy by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti, Just For The Summer & Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez, Great Big Beautiful Life by Henry Emily, Adrift In Currents Clean And Clear by Seanan McGuire, and The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Heidt. They close shop with their plans for a new mini-series to air after finishing Throne of Glass.

The gals are back in the Tiny Shed for a less-than-impressed review of Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros. The questions are endless - Why does every single character need a name? Where did these isles come from? Why are there both zero and one million plots in this book? Tune in to find out who is giving big Tamlin vibes, and if the gals will continue to read the next books in the series. 

Join Tia and Chandler for a classic Tangent episode. The gals will be taking a short break after this episode while Tia embarks on her honeymoon adventure. Listen in as they complain about the lack of hours Spotify allocates for audiobooks, and how they struggle to correctly pronounce the word ‘romanticization’. They recap their current reads; Verity by Colleen Hoover, The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston, The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna, The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst, The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo, The Troop by Nick Cutter, Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey, and Regretting Motherhood by Orna Donath. Stay until the end to hear the plan for finishing the Throne of Glass series, as well as Onyx Storm.

The Tiny Shed gals ask for you to send your T’s and P’s (thoughts & prayers) to our precarious microphone setup. Not to worry, they still covered all the most important aspects of Part 2 of Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas - the fact that Rowan is just untoasted bread, Erawan is the dude of all dudes, and how to filibuster the king. Stay until the end to hear what book they will be reading before they hit the tandem read of the next two books in the series!

New year, new book opinions! Tia and Chandler delve into their 2024 year in books, including but not limited to; top hitters, books you should skip, books with amazing covers that disappointed, and the appropriate speeds for audiobook enjoyment. Honestly, they cover way too many books than should ever be listed in a podcast description - thus, you are invited to listen to all the book recs straight from the episode itself!

The gals ring in the New Year by reviewing Part 1 of Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas. They continue to helplessly mispronounce all the names, partake in some stinkin’ thinkin’, and come to understand that carranam is really just a deep bro moment.

This episode Tia & Chandler review Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J Maas. The gals read Assassin’s Blade right after finishing Heir of Fire in the Throne of Glass series. Tune in to hear all the beef tea; who’s getting a letter of rec, who’s betting dollary-doos on red-haired queens, and the best character of all - suit man. Stay until the end to hear their star rating!

Tia and Chandler come back from the dead, just in time, to give you some spooooooky October recommendations. Buckle up for their list of current reads: The Only One Left by Riley Sager, How To Sell A Haunted House by Grady Hendrix, Sunbringer by Hannah Kaner, No Gods No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull, Daughter Of No Worlds by Carissa Broadbent, Love Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood, The Year I Met My Brain by Matilda Boseley, Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton, the Rook and Rose series by M.A. Carrick, Undead Folk by Katherine Silva, Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver, Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan, and more! Stay until the end to hear more about how they plan to cover the Throne of Glass series.
