Inspired by Sarah J Maas' book series 'A Court of Thorns and Roses', two friends read each chapter and ask big (and sometimes silly) questions about the characters and the world of Prythian. We also use deep reading techniques to gain greater insight, pioneered by the podcast 'Harry Potter and the Sacred Text'.

Hi everyone, no chapter this week. Katie has some family health problems going on, so episodes aren’t going to come out weekly for the next few months. They will still come out on Fridays, and if you follow any of our social media @acotappodcast, updates on episode will be on there. Thanks for understanding, and we hope you have a great weekend!
