This podcast is like a warm hug, if a warm hug also made the best jokes. When things get hectic this is the one podcast I keep up with, without fail. Come for recaps and commentary on a perfectly curated cross section of romance books; stay for the callbacks, community, and joy. HB is my lady love.

As for my rec, I’ve been reading books by Emily Antoinette, and there are so many elements in all of the books that I suspect both Melody and Sabrina... more
Would love if y’all looked into Road of Bones but I know the queue is LONG
