They make entertainment smart
I love how this podcast introduces deep thinking in what much of us just believes to be simply entertainment. Most of the time I would feel guilty for just reading and listening about fictional worlds but these two goddesses made fictional into academical for me. I also love how even if there are critically analyzing the text (see how I’m even learning writer’s jargon?!) they also make it fun and personable. I’m even thinking about applying for a course in the area!
These ladies are amazing!!!!!
I have been a listener from the beginning and LOVE this podcast. I’m not a critical reader, I read for entertainment/enjoyment and I learn something new about ACOTAR/SJM books every week. I find myself talking back to Jac and Amy in my car when I listen. They feel like my friends
LOVE LOVE LOVE
As someone new to the fantasy world, fantasy books can be confusing. The in-depth world building, characters, special abilities of each character, etc etc. It’s all just a lot to keep straight. This podcast has helped me see and understand these novels in a way I was unable to. I thoroughly enjoy everything about this podcast. The way these ladies describe and explain every aspect of the literature in such an educated, yet understandable way makes me appreciate these novels so much more. I love how they explain and describe the different view points, symbolism, foreshadowing and similarities because that stuff goes right over my head, but I find it so fascinating. This podcast gives me such an appreciation for the imagination and talent of the author. Thank you, Jac and Amy, for helping me view these novels in such a beautiful way. You are appreciated!
