A Court of Tattoos and Rosé

We’ve got first day of school vibes today as Gwyn joins Nesta and Cassian for training. She is a quick study and crushes the workout…even in her heavy robes! Nesta and Cassian take a trip to our least favorite place, Windhaven. While Nesta hangs out with her other new friend (and meets her unsavory cousin), Cassian is stuck with Eris. That encounter doesn’t go well. Nesta helps relieve Cassian’s s...

Celaena takes a day trip to honor the memory of her parents. While out in the wilderness, we get a pretty gruesome reminder of her time in Endovier and her deadly skills. When she gets back, Chaol is there to provide comfort and chocolate cake. Meanwhile, Dorian is frantically searching the library for any hints regarding his magical lineage. We get a brief history lesson on the Fae, magical affin...

Cassian needs a distraction at training after his spicy nighttime visit with Nesta. What better distraction than sparring with Az…while shirtless! Nesta gets a front row seat to the hottest show in all of Prythian. Meanwhile, we get utterly robbed and we will never forget it. Gwyn and Nesta discuss the Dread Trove and Nesta’s training. After an enlightening stroll down the stairs, Nesta comes up w...

After Elain speaks up to volunteer to find the Dread Trove, a big secret is revealed! The Inner Circle is expanding and we are all a bit confused. Cass and Az talk about their soon-to-be new roles. It's seriously the cutest thing ever! After that, Cass decides to repay a debt to Nesta. Lucky Nesta! Plus Gena makes her “ACOTAR Debut” as she calls it!

Chaol has an odd briefing with the King during which he is told about a mysterious threat to Nehemia but given no details. Meanwhile, Dorian is still struggling with his outburst in the hallway and tries to blow off some steam in the fighting ring. Too bad his sleazy cousin finds him. Roland is definitely up to something. Afterwards, the gang all run into each other at the traveling carnival. They...

Nesta is battling her (im)mortal enemy yet again…the stairs! She gets to 1,000 this time which is pretty impressive to us. As always, Cass is waiting at the top of the steps for her but she is in no mood to spar with him. She is, however, in another mood all together if you catch our drift. Unfortunately for poor Cassian, he gets a bit too excited and we run into some major miscommunications (UGH)...

Join us for our 100th ACOTAR episode! Full disclosure, we are still in awe that ya'll have stuck with us this long. We take a trip down memory lane and share your favorite moments from our past episodes. Then we jump back into ACOSF where Nesta has a brilliant idea...but will anyone sign up for it? Elain visits the House of Wind and it goes even worse than we all expected.

After a hot minute away, we are back with a COM episode where we discuss steamy eye contact, gas lighters, and dancing. The tension in the air is climbing higher. OH. And @breathlessbooks is here again for some added spice. 

Get hyped everyone! This week we are joined by none other than the CE Ricci (@authorcericci)! To make it even better, Gena (@breathlessbooks) joined us for this incredible episode! We talk about CE’s upcoming releases, the steamiest scenes she has written and her unparalleled skill in naming her characters. You’re going to love this one!

We were going to talk Crown of Midnight and then we didn’t….

Nesta continues her training with Cassian and learns the importance of stretching. She also learns more about Cassian’s past which makes her realize she has been a bit cruel to him. Rhys and Cass have a very clandestine meeting with Eris in the Spring Court. Cassian faces his greatest foe yet, seasonal allergies! The House is the true MVP by supplying Nesta with an endless supply of smutty books,...

Y’all. The rumors are true. MARLEY VALENTINE (@MValentineAuthor) IS HERE WITH US. Cue the uncontrollable screaming. Seriously though, we could barely contain our excitement. Marley joins us with @bookmatespod for an incredible episode. We discuss writing habits, upcoming works, oh and our absolute obsession, Without You. Don’t miss out on this amazing episode!

One of our favorite new authors, Grae Bryan (@authorgraebryan) joins us. We chat her latest release, Roman, upcoming books, all things vampires, oh and TVD. @shannonjoy_bc also joins Mads in this episode, so you know you are in for a good time! Just a heads up, the wifi gods were not feeling too kind towards us for this recording. We apologize for the audio issues!

After a creepy tour of the hidden passageways, Celaena and the King’s court are serenaded by a popular singer with an ulterior motive. Unfortunately, the King is not a fan of her tale of magic and fae. Later, Celaena and Nehemia hash out a few things after Nehemia is a bit harsh about Celaena’s activities as the King’s Champion. In an effort to build trust, Celaena introduces her to Mort and the t...

After finally taking a hint, Cassian’s training plan for Nesta undergoes a change of location. That doesn’t mean he is in the clear though. It takes a particularly beneficial bargain (in Nesta’s favor) to entice her into the training ring. Nesta’s first day is full of toe exercises, stretching and sprawling on the mat. Afterwards, Nesta heads to the library where she runs into a frantic Gwyn. Afte...

The Dark Romance Queen, Sophie Lark, is here with us! We talk about books that we obsess over, her upcoming works, and Business Daddy. So this is an episode that you won’t want to miss!

Welcome to pure chaos with Caitlyn, Madison and Blake! But really, buckle up for this one. Celaena recovers from a horrendous evening thanks to Chaol. Needless to say, he is not thrilled with her. She celebrates her recovery by going to the library to hunt for monsters. Her efforts lead her to yet another secret passageway. This one is filled with ancient Fae art, a creepy iron door and a very que...

Lexi Ryan is with us for a special Author Spotlight Episode. We discuss her book These Hollow Vows and she gives us a sneak peak at her new release These Twisted Bonds (Release Date July 19). We also discuss some of her contemporary romances, some future writing plans, and whether or not her family reads her books. You won’t want to miss this one!

Nesta and the stairs battle it out again and to no one’s surprise the stairs win. Nesta is left with some gnarly cuts and bruises but she also gets a glimpse of that power brewing under the surface. Her life doesn’t get much better from there. She fights with the House before another nasty verbal sparring match with Cassian. Feyre checks in on Cass after the battle and we get more evidence of how...

Join us as we get a chance to chat with one of our favorite authors, @onleyjameswrites - we chat Necessary Evils, future writing ideas, and THAIDEN. It’s an episode you don’t want to miss!

Celaena’s “date” with Archer gets even more interesting when he tells her about a growing rebellion right in the city. She gets quite the shock when he insists that this new group is rallying around the lost heir of Terrasen. After a brief interlude about soap operas, we dive back into the action. Celaena attends a house party in order to get more information on this mysterious group of rebels. Le...

Nesta gives the ultimate Stair Master a whirl and fails miserably…in front of Cassian. Poor Azriel is subjected to the first of many awkward meals in the dining room. After a true struggle, Nesta joins Cassian again for training, i.e. sitting on a cold rock doing nothing. In an attempt to distract from her dark thoughts, Nesta enters a quaint store with a gorgeous and witty store owner, Emerie! He...

It is time to fight together. As women who have a platform, we decided to speak out about how we are feeling. We discuss the events of today, things you need to know, and what you can do to be proactive. Women deserve the right to make decisions about their own bodies. It is not something the government needs to have a say in. This episode might not be for everyone, that is ok. But we chose to use...

Hollin returns. He’s terrible, truly terrible. Celaena goes on a date with Archer. We continue to drool over her closet. Chaol is clearly jealous. And oh wait, the King wants Archer dead.

Cassian begins his new role. He visits Jurian, Vassa and Lucien. And surprise, Eris is there! There is tension brewing, especially with our newly made, old, queen fae. And Beron, he’s up to no good.
