  • Threshing Day Predictions
    Sep 23 2026

    In this episode, we're going down the rabbit hole to share our predictions for what POVs will be in the upcoming book, Threshing Day by Rebecca Yarros. We’re sharing everything that Rebecca has shared so far (as of Sept. 15, when we recorded the episode) and why it’s led us to make each prediction. Plus, we discuss why we believe certain POVs won’t be in the book and the one we’re hoping to see that would emotionally destroy us.
