    Enemies to Lovers, featuring The Hating Game by Sally Thorne

    We're talking Enemies to Lovers this month, and in preparation, we all read The Hating Game by Sally Thorne [https://amzn.to/40ZnwDe]. We talk about what we want from an Enemies to Lovers romance, whether The Hating Game is a good example of one, and whether it's creepy to paint your walls to match your crush's eyes.

    2024 Superlatives

    Now Presenting…The Fifth Annual Smut Report Superlatives It's a new year, which means it's time to look back on the past year. We were tired and found comfort in books. We were tired and struggled to read books. But no matter what, we reaffirmed how much we love to read and talk about books. So instead of a best-of list, we bring you without further ado: The Fifth Annual Smut Report Superlatives. Note: These are books we read this year. We might have reviewed them or not, and they may be published in 2024 or not. We just like books. If you'd rather read the list, full show notes are available at smutreport.com/podcast [https://smutreport.com/2024/12/31/now-presentingthe-fifth-annual-smut-report-superlatives/].
