    Should You Read Daggermouth? A Dark Dystopian Romance with Teeth

    In this episode, we’re breaking down Daggermouth by H.M. Wolfe, a dark dystopian romance that blends brutal political systems, true enemies-to-lovers tension, and unapologetic feminine rage. We walk through a spoiler-free overview of the world of New Found Haven, discuss the book’s oppressive power structures and themes of survival, and explore why this story feels eerily relevant in today’s world. From dictatorship and dehumanization to rebellion, endurance, and love as resistance, Daggermouth is more than just a dystopian romance — it’s a mirror. We also dive into: Whether the enemies-to-lovers romance actually feels earnedHow the multiple POVs shape empathy and tensionWhy Shadera is one of the most compelling FMCs we’ve readThe balance between dystopia, romance, and political intrigueWho should absolutely read this — and who should mood-match carefullyIf you love adult dystopian fiction, dark romance, or books like The Hunger Games but want something grittier, angrier, and more emotionally intense, this episode is for you. ✨ Final verdict: Is Daggermouth a must-read — or should it stay on your TBR?

    January Reading Wrap-Up: When a Six-Star Read Ruins the Month (Plus What We Read & Watched)

    January is officially over — and the receipts are in. In this cozy but chaotic January wrap-up episode, we’re revisiting our reading goals, giving ourselves a very unserious report card, and unpacking what actually happened versus what we thought this month would look like. We talk about slowing down instead of burning out, and how one six-star read completely reshaped our expectations for all Romantasy books that followed. We also get into book tracking apps, reading slumps, and why some hyped books just don’t hit depending on timing, mood, or mindset. We share what we read this month — from classics like The Picture of Dorian Gray, to romantasy debuts like Veins of Power, to one truly unhinged literary fiction pick (Sky Daddy). We also recap what we watched in January, including TV shows, adaptations, and the pop culture distractions that pulled us away from our TBRs. We wrap up by reflecting on what we’re carrying into February — from genre balance and pacing to reading expectations and media habits. If you love books, TV, pop culture, and bookish conversations that feel like hanging out with friends (not homework), this episode is for you.

    Should You Read The Everlasting? | The 6-Star Romantasy + 2026 Book Releases We’re Excited For

    Is The Everlasting really a six-star read — and should you read it? In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most talked-about books on BookTok and Bookstagram, often hailed as a top book of 2025 and a romantasy that the genre should be taking notes from. We start with a spoiler-free recap to set the stage, then break down our honest thoughts, reactions, and reflections. We discuss why The Everlasting feels different from copy-and-paste romantasy, how it challenges reader expectations, and whether the hype actually holds up. From nuanced character dynamics to morally complex villains and layered themes, this conversation is all about what worked, what challenged us, and what lingered after the final page. Finally, we answer the question everyone wants to know: who should read this book — and who might want to skip it. We also wrap up by sharing the 2026 book releases we’re most excited for, including upcoming sequels, romance standouts, fantasy favorites, and genre-bending reads we already can’t stop thinking about. ✨ In this episode: Spoiler-free recap of The EverlastingHonest romantasy discussion & genre critiqueOur ratings and final verdictShould you read this?

    It’s a new year… which means new intentions, fresh planners, and at least three versions of ourselves living rent-free in our brains. In this episode, we talk about: • why resolutions feel overwhelming and how to make them realistic • big goals vs tiny dopamine-hit goals • whether rereads “count” towards your goal  • attention spans, burnout, and Romantasy overload • choosing a word of the year (Youthful? Whimsy? Immersive?) • motivating reads, comfort reads, and perspective-shifting picks • building a real, inclusive book community in 2026 We’re starting the year with optimism, intention, and a TBR that may or may not destroy us...and we want to hear your goals too. Tell us your word for 2026, your first read of the year, or a resolution you want help breaking down into something doable. We’ll cheer you on. Next week: new releases we’re obsessing over and whether the sequels are actually worth it. Same time, same place. Bring your blanket. Bring your book boyfriend. See you there.
