Diamonds Like It Rough

Hey there Gems! We didn’t get enough of Hades and Persephone last month so we are reading/discussing another, spicier version. Did someone say SPICIER?!?!

Obviously that’s a rhetorical question Gems…we take a break from discussing smut and talk about true crime, seems legit…

For this episode, one of us (Chels) stayed on script when selecting the next read, while the other (Jen) decided to switch things up and trade the spice for some tears…you have been warned!

Come along Gems, as we dive into the Underworld of Greek mythology with twists and turns you never saw coming!! We get a front row center seat to how it all began between Hades and “Sephy.” Listen in to see how Jen rated this one and just how spicy the spice spiced….OPA

Listen in as we discuss our thoughts on this “cute” book by Meghan Quinn. Obviously there is a theme to the books Jen is picking for Chels (girl meets boy, boy is a billionaire), but hey….who doesn’t love some spicy fiction?!

A little recap of Jen’s recent trips to get you giggling!

Book reveal day is exciting!!! This time we’ve got our first ever buddy-read about a fake engagement and then we delve into a little Greek mythology and…as always, lot of laughs. OPA!

Hey there Gems! On this episode we discuss an interesting take on the classic tale of King Midas and a twist Jen didn’t see coming!

Hey Gems! We got educated (?) on the professor- student trope with Temptation by Ivy Smoak. Listen in to hear Chelsea’s report card on this one and whether it passed or failed.

Hey there Gems! Today we get (just) a few things off our chest. But don’t worry, we do it the only way we know how….hilariously!

Time for another book reveal! We both picked winners here, Gems…the best of BookTok, unbeknownst to each other. This month we’ve got forbidden love, slow burn, forced proximity, and a dark relationship in store for you, our precious Gems. Listen to hear which books we will be reading next!!

Steamy AND hilarious!! The Takeover by TL Swan continues the Miles High Club and Chels gets to know Tristan a little better.

Well Gems, now is the time Jen gets introduced to a winged male (Chelsea’s favorite sort of book boyfriend). Listen as we get into all of the juicy details on this one!

Hey Gems! Our first little Bits & Baubles where we talk about another D word!

A siren and a single mom….sounds like the start of a joke, but no…just an idea of what our next book selections for each other have in store for our Jems!

Oh Darlings…you simply must listen in as we discuss an interesting twist to a popular story many of us grew up with and still love! We put The Never King by Nikki St. Crow through its paces to see how it stacks up for Jen, the non-reader of Romantasy. But hey, “don’t get cocky,” listen, share, and let us know what you think!

Our first book discussion where we dive into The Stopover by TL Swan. First class, a brooding MMC and plenty of spice, oh my! Find out what Chels thought of her first recommended blind read and if she recants her statement that the smut Jen reads “has no plot!” Spoiler warning! We tried to keep it to a minimum and give a heads-up before we got into them for anyone wanting to skip ahead.

Drum roll please! Our first book reveal…we unveil the books we have selected for each other, along with the method to our madness for making the selection, muah ha ha!

Gems…we introduce ourselves and give you a lil taste of what to expect from our podcast 💎 Part 2
