Hey pals! Enjoy the treat of this absolutely decadent deep-dive into DREAMING OF YOU by Lisa Kleypas with co-host of Fated Mates and co-founder of Derek Craven Day (aka the most important romance holiday in February), Jen Prokop. We put on our analysis hats and notice things about this book that we've never noticed before, proving once and for all why this is one of the all-time great all-nighter romance novels. Enjoy the show!

Pals! We're back with the second half of Bridgerton season 4! This one definitely goes at or near the top of our favorite seasons for one main reason: it's capital R Romance! Shocking that a show adapting romance novels is at its best when it focuses on the love story, right? We also discuss whether we think Francesca or Eloise will be the star of next season and who we think the new Lady Whistledown is. Enjoy the show!

Loon Comrades! You know this couldn't be a book podcast if I only gave you an episode on the Heated Rivalry show. Today, I'm talking about Heated Rivalry: the book by Rachel Reid with my certified Local Gay Icon™  friend, Braun, who says both the show and the book changed his life, and his perspective on the possibilities of queer media. We squeal over Shane, Ilya, Scott, and Kip; pitch some fanfic ideas featuring a surprise guest we're both a fan of; and talk about how the book differs from the show (and which one we like better). Also, stick around to the end to listen to us convince you to run for local office!

Comrades! To paraphrase the wise words of Kate Bush, I wouldn't leave you out in the cold, so this episode I'm letting you into the window of my thoughts on Wuthering Heights (the book by Emily Bronte) and "Wuthering Heights" (the movie by Emerald Fennell). I'm joined by Caro, aka @difficultwomanreads, a Wuthering Heights internet scholar and haver of many right opinions about gothic literature. We talk Heathcliff and Cathy as romance MC archetypes, what adaptation really means, and plenty of romance novels to read next if you want that Wuthering Heights angst with the HEA guarantee. What did you think of the new movie? Enjoy the show!

Dearest, gentle comrades, it's here! The Bridgerton Season 4: Part 1 episode! I'm joined by multi-time guest host, Elodie, to chat what we loved about this season and what we didn't. We swoon over Sophie and want to shake Benedict for being such a dummy. We explore the Lady Danbury/Queen Charlotte subplot, Violet's absolutely *blooming* boobs, and the upstairs/downstairs dynamic. We also rant about what the heck is going on with Eloise's character and give the Michaela antis the set down they need. Let us know what you think of this season in your review or on socials. Enjoy the show!

Hey comrades! The state of the romance genre is wild right now and I'm so excited to have author Adriana Herrera on to talk about it. We chat where the romance genre is and where it's going, fanfiction and fandom, community, feminism in romance, and (of course) Heated Rivalry. It was so awesome to hear Adriana speak and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did!

Hey comrades! It's the first deep dive (deep cut? slice? stab?) of the year and we're really getting under your skin with listener suggested serial killer romance BUTCHER & BLACKBIRD by Brynne Weaver. I'm joined by returning guest host Katie to talk about this bonkers romance in which two bonkers people, Sloane and Rowan, fall in love and also murder a good amount of people on the way.
