  • Tell Me I'm Not Dreaming
    May 26 2026

    We just finished reading Tell Me I'm Not Dreaming by Monique Fisher so we're going to discuss this very cute read!

    We are also officially halfway through the season, and you know we had to pause, poured something good to drink, and look back at everything we’ve read so far! Today, the three of us are giving you the completely unfiltered breakdown of our hits, misses, and our plans for the rest of season two!

    We’re putting it all on the table:

    • The Ultimate Favorite: The one book from the first half of the season that we still can't stop thinking (or talking) about.
    • The Book Boyfriend Bracket: Who raised our standards, who stole our hearts, and who gave what needed to be given!
    • The Fest Prep: We are getting our outfits, our packing lists, and our book carts ready because we are officially heading to the Black Romance Book Fest! We’re breaking down our game plan, the authors we are ready to fan-girl over, and the artists we're ready to scream over.

    Grab your favorite drink, get comfortable, and come hang out with us!

  • Our Vicious Oaths
    May 8 2026

    Grab your drink and settle in, because this time we’re diving into Our Vicious Oaths by N.E. Davenport and for the first time ever… we didn’t finish the book before filming the episode 👀

    Between the cutthroat Fae politics, the grueling battles, and the kind of romantic tension that makes you want to scream into a pillow, we had thoughts. Join us as we break down Princess Kadeesha’s warrior energy and why King Malachi is officially our new favorite vengeful "morally gray" obsession.

    In this episode, we’re discussing:

    • The Alliance: Was it logic or just pure chemistry? (Spoiler: It’s both, and it’s messy).
    • Enemies to Lovers: Why passion hits different when you kinda hate each other.
    • The Spice Meter: We’re rating the heat levels and how these two managed to stay focused on the mission while looking at each other like that.
    • Political Intrigue: Navigating the Fae courts and the High King we collectively love to hate.

    Whether you’ve already finished the book or just want to hear us lose our minds over the enemies-to-lovers arc, tune in for all our thoughts, theories, and chaos before we head into our final episode before the mid-season finale

  • I Don't Wish You Well
    Apr 24 2026

    Grab your favorite drink and pull up a chair, because this week we are heading down to Moss Pointe, Louisiana, and things are getting messy. We’re diving into the twisty, suspenseful world of I Don’t Wish You Well by Jumata Emill.

    We’re following Pryce Cummings—a gay, Black college journalist who returns to his hometown to start a true-crime podcast about the "Trojan Murders." Five years ago, the town thought they caught the killer, but Pryce isn't so sure.

    What We’re Getting Into:

    • Small Town, Big Problems: We discuss the corruption and homophobia lurking in Moss Pointe and how Jumata Emill tackles identity and prejudice without missing a beat of the suspense.
    • The "I Don't Wish You Well" Energy: Who is actually the villain here? We discuss the motives of the masked killer and vent about the people in this town who definitely deserve the title of the book. How is justice served?
    ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode (and book) discusses mature themes including sexual assault and graphic violence. Please take care of yourself while listening!
