    S4 Ep 9: Daddy Issues

    Kendall & Jess discuss the second book in the Crowns of Nyaxia series: The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King, by Carissa Broadbent. Neither of them can get over the length of these titles! Kendall is super sad about this being the final book in Oraya and Raihn's story, and Jess is wishing the slow burn was a little less slow. They both are on  the edge of their seats waiting for the third book in the series to come out, which will have a new main character that fans already know and love! Thanks so much for tuning in to Season 4 of Talk Fiction to Me!

    S4 Ep 6: Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee

    S4 Ep 6: Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee

    Kendall and Jess discuss all three books in The War of Lost Hearts Trilogy, by Carissa Broadbent: Daughter of No Worlds, Children of Fallen Gods, and Mother of Death and Dawn. They both agree that Carissa knocked it out of the park with these books, introducing elements that don't feel like they've been rinsed and repeated in every other romantasy book series. Kendall is loving the very original names in these books, and Jess is just hoping she can attempt to pronounce them correctly. Tune in in to hear all of their thoughts and feelings - and join us again in the next episode for a conversation with the author herself!

Wine, Chaos, Sex, and Laughs

This is an amazing podcast. Truly something that I can turn on and not worry that I won’t enjoy whatever episode has come on. Both of these lovely ladies are crazy, chaotic, and they know how to make a shared love of books fun. Some episodes you get a full run down of a book, while in others you get talking point of the main story point with in depth discussion regarding sex scenes, relationships, and the overall story arch. Theories are shared and information about their opinion of things in the book community are revealed. Love this well-rounded podcast!
