  • Perfection

    I just flew through Fourth Wing and Iron flame and was hesitant about going onto Onyx storm so soon because I am not ready for these books to end! So I started looking for a podcast to talk me through both books and that’s exactly what this is! The amount of time and dedication you girls put into this podcast is so impressive and so thorough. Thank you for doing this. ❤️
