We'll recap sets of chapters, obsess over character arcs, unpack hidden details, spiral over fan theories, and yes... there will be spoilers 👀 Whether you're here for the dragons, the shadow daddies, the found family, or the emotional damage, this podcast is your safe space to scream about fantasy worlds with fellow readers who totally get it.

    Ep. 1 Get to Know Us!

    Welcome back to a special episode of Just Read It… MCKay!! Instead of breaking down chapters or spiraling over fan theories, we thought it would be fun to let you get to know us a little better as readers. So we’re answering all kinds of bookish questions — our favorite books read in March, authors we’ll auto-buy no matter what, comfort reads, ACOTAR hot takes, and probably exposing way too much about ourselves in the process. Basically, if you’ve ever wondered what kind of readers 3 fantasy-obsessed women in their 30s actually are behind the scenes… this episode is for you. Grab your coffee, your current read, or your morally gray boyfriend of choice, and let’s get into it.
