    41. The Naughty List

    Welcome back WITS listeners!! This week, join Elle and Kay as they discuss The Naughty List by Ellie Mae MacGregor. WITS Smut Rating: 🐙 Despite the fact that this is only a level one on the smut scale, this week's book brings the heat. Kay found herself relating way too much with the FMC to the point where she almost wanted to put the book down, but oh boy is she glad she didn't! Elle also pictured Kay in this story, from wanting Santa to taste like hot cocoa, to using phrases that Kay has definitely been guilty of using in her day to day language. Both Elle and Kay loved the fact that Santa was ripped, with tattoos and... nipple piercings?! Kay recalls a college class lesson that may just have changed Elle's perspective on the beauty of the female form. For the second week in a row, both Elle and Kay gave this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! More Christmas magic!!

    40. Tinsel and Tentacles

    Welcome back WITS listeners! This week, join Elle and Kay as they discuss Tinsel and Tentacles by Kate McDarris WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙 This week, the smut verse makes both Kay and Elle mad with the age old audiobook debate. Consuming books in any medium is reading, ok? They questioned how a book with tentacles and a throuple didn't automatically get a rating of "icky sticky tangle of tentacles" with a surprisingly sweet and detailed plot for a novella. Kay laments how books like this give her hope for running into a rockstar somewhere and them just falling in love with her, and Elle, our resident reasonable one, did nothing to help bring that hope back down to reality. Typically not fans of miscommunication tropes, this book gave us the best kind of miscommunication for the situation. Overall, this may be the first time that both Kay and Elle rated this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!! Tis the season for tentacles and love at Christmas time!

    39. Elf'd

    Welcome back WITS listeners! Join us this week as Elle and Kay discuss Elf'd by Ginger Kane. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙 Elle and Kay discuss how its ok for there to not be a grocery list of trigger warnings, and question if "too many arms" is a content warning or a good thing. Kay recalls a time that she opened a "Santa's little helper" in a Christmas swap, though she didn't end up leaving with it that night... a shame, truly. Both ladies were momentarily confused, expecting a tiny elf instead of the delicious being that appeared in front of the FMC Holly. Kay is back on board with no peppermint flavoring being used in today's story, but Elle still hates that the scent is mostly sugar based. We did feel a little bad for the MMC in his "once a year" lifestyle, but he does turn back into the toy that she can utilize year round. Now that we are firmly back on our sentient object bullshit two weeks in a row, Kay rated this ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 and Elle surprised us both with ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!

    38. Frisky the Snowman

    Welcome back WITS listeners!! Join Elle and Kay this week as they discuss Frisky the Snowman by Lauren Biel. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙🐙 We are back on our sentient object romance bullshit this week, with a welcomed palate cleanser after the Thanksgiving and Halloween smut of late. Kay introduces Elle to a necessary pop culture SNL character moment, though Elle may disagree... Superstar anyone? For the first time, Kay is really put off by a flavor/scent because she know's it wouldn't be pleasant. We also uncover a potential life plot hole in the form of kitchen location... is your kitchen in the front of the house?? This week, Elle gave the book ⭐⭐⭐ while Kay was a little higher at ⭐⭐⭐.5 Affilliate Links for this week's episode: Frisky the Snowman by Lauren Biel Next Week: Elf'd by Ginger Kane Follow us on Instagram and Threads @thewitspod and on TikTok @what.in.the.smut Visit our Buy Me a Coffee page!

    37. Back for Seconds ft. Jayce Reads Romance

    Welcome back WITS listeners! This week, Elle and Kay are joined by Jayce from Jayce Reads Romance to discuss Back for Seconds by J.L. Logosz and Vera Valentine. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙 In this episode, Kay uncovers the plot hole of the wishbone not having the time to dry before snapping, and both Elle and Jayce had chalked it up to something thats only been done on movies and in books. We all struggle a little bit with the second person point of view, and we're glad that its not all that common in books. Kay tries desperately to make sense of the Thanksgiving meal being able to work in tandem because they've been together for so long (middle of the Civil War- who knew? (not Kay, thats for sure). We all come to the consensus that 5 is too many. Oh- and Justice for Gregg! Overall, Kay gave this ⭐⭐⭐, Jayce rated this ⭐⭐, and Elle went with ⭐.5. We still think Vera Valentine can do no wrong though. Affiliate links for this weeks episode: Back for Seconds by J.L.

    36. Home for the Gobble Days

    Welcome back WITS listeners!! Join us as we continue the Thanksgiving theme and discuss this week's book, Home for the Gobble Days by Latrexa Nova. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙🐙 This week, Elle and Kay debate whether ghost sex is a real kink but agree that one of the opening scenes of this book would put someone firmly in whether or not they are into exhibitionism. A few of the plot holes in timing make our resident traveler, Elle, quite irritated. You won't eat a full dinner 10 minutes after you land from a red eye! Kay gets a history lesson in a way that she likes, and uses some of her own historical New England knowledge. Elle shares information that she learned at a much later age than she would have hoped for, and it all makes sense why we get the ted talk most weeks! We were happy to have rated this higher than the past few weeks, with Kay giving this ⭐⭐⭐.5 and Elle rating this ⭐⭐⭐.

    35. Freeuse Thanksgiving

    Welcome back WITS Listeners! This week, Elle and Kay discuss a new kink in Freeuse Thanksgiving by April Cross and Matt Lake. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙 The reviews get us going this week, with a mention of AI narration for the audiobook, and boy do we have thoughts. The book being written by two different authors also gives an interesting perspective, but we can tell that the MMC is written by a man. The introduction to the new-to-us kink of Freeuse could have had some more information about the lifestyle, but we leaned toward having issue with the fact that the FMC had until just recently been a virgin. Overall, this was another week of ⭐ ratings from both Elle and Kay, who had higher hopes for this storyline.

    34. Basted

    Welcome back WITS listeners. Halloween is over, its time to get grateful. Are we grateful that we read this book... you be the judge of that one. This week, Elle and Kay discussed Basted by Abby Hunter. WITS Smut Scale: 🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙 This week, Elle has some "what not to do" financial advice in the first year of a relationship, and Kay gets to the root of where her hopeless romantic ideals come from. They question the choice to keep the MMCs as turkey basters instead of going the typical sentient object route of turning them into men, though the addition of magical tendrils helps a little. Also, as always, Elle has a visceral reaction to the introduction of gravy into places gravy should never go. Overall, this was a ⭐ from both Elle and Kay. Its been a while since we had a story that really needed a little more plot for both of us.
