    S3E13 - Talk Bookish To Me by Kate Bromley

    You've heard of Enemies-to-Lovers, but what about Enemies-to...Roommates? Everything that was old is new again when romance author Kara Sullivan's Dreaded Ex comes to town and unclogs the writer's block she's been facing while staring down the simultaneous deadline for her latest novel AND her best friend's wedding. What lengths would *you* go to to feed the muse? Find out what this pair of writers thought about the idea, then grab a copy for yourself and see what you think! You can find more about Belinda Missen and her books here. And you can find Terence MacManus and his books here.

    S3E11 — The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna

    Horrifying monsters that can kill you through shriek or claw can only be fought by other monsters, right? So training an elite army out of the young, immortal and super-strong girls you've been routinely murdering as 'demons' thanks to your severely patriarchal religion makes great sense, right? Err... right? Find out which colour our blood ran when we read Namina Forna's powerfully feminist 'The Gilded Ones', and whether we thought it deserved a Gold star for effort - or should be subjected to its Final Death...

    S3 - E10: Bridgerton - The Duke and I

    Smooth-talking Dukes, Plucky Young Women and Regency Romance - The Bridgerton books have it all. And now that Bridgerton is on Netflix, the S3 duo have come in characteristically late (twenty-one years if you count from when the book was published, but don't tell us that!!) to gush over its gripping language, larger-than-the-times characters, and THAT scene (you know the one). Make sure you stay on for the Outro; it's a doozy! You can find more about Belinda Missen and her books here. And you can find Terence MacManus and his books here.
