Episodes

CC: Earth & Blood - P2: The One Where Nicole Becomes the Viper Queen 19.01.2026

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as we ask the real questions—like why Bryce is paying $10k for illegal demon salt like it’s a Sephora haul, and whether “stakes on the table” means dinner or danger (spoiler: both). Nicole auditions as the Viper Queen, Marisa rebrands wind powers as “get the f*ck away from me” energy, and we all agree: nothing says love like getting punched in the face by y...

CC: Earth & Blood - P1: The One Where Everything Was Fine… Until It Wasn’t 27.11.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where your favorite duo, Marisa and Nicole, dive into Crescent City — and yes, we’re talking tattoos with trauma, dresses that scream ‘daddy issues,’ and Bryce ghosting emotional intimacy like it’s her side hustle. There’s drug-fueled clubbing, a bookstore run by an enchantress who might turn you into a lizard, and then… things escal...

Ashes & the Star Cursed King: P3 - The One Where the Speech Smells Like Shit but Kinda Works 15.11.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole unpack sewer-scented strategy, battle prep via bang, and why inspirational speeches hit different when you’re crusted in feces. There are tattooed maps, mystery aunts, a maybe-naked Nyaxia who is definitely not thrilled her husband’s teeth were turned into a cursed necklace, all while Araya casually — and very...

Ashes & the Star Cursed King: P2 - The One with the Unicorn Herd and the Not-So-Innocent Wing Massage 06.11.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tails with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole dive into Araya’s vampire trauma, magic struggles, and a wing massage that’s definitely not just physical therapy. We explore the emotional wreckage of murdery dads, manipulative gods, magical breakdowns, and the kind of shirtless vulnerability you only get from emotionally unavailable vampires. Somewhere betw...

Ashes & the Star-Crossed King: P1 - The One With the God Teeth and the Vampire Ick 30.10.2025

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as they dive into the creepy vampire baby town of La Whore™ (yes, we said it), debate who keeps god teeth and why that’s horrifying, and try to redefine murder—well, Nicole does, while defending Raihn with the passion of a morally confused public defender. Marisa is still mad (rightfully), but has downgraded Raihn from “enemy of the state” to “doghouse occu...

Serpent & the Wings of Night: P3 - The One Where Entrails Are the Love Language 16.10.2025

Join us for the final episode of Serpent and the Wings of Night on High Tails with the Lit Sisters, where the blood trials are brutal, the entrails are flying, and somehow no one has showered. Araya's in denial, Raihn is too hot to cancel (but Marisa’s trying), and Nicole is busy mediating with 30 internal voices and a fistful of emotional coping strategies. We’ve got vampire warfare, ill-timed ho...

Serpent & the Wings of Night: P2 -The One Where Marisa Wants Deer Blood and Nicole Wants a Vampire Husband 09.10.2025

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, for an episode full of vampire drama, magical anxiety, and emotionally questionable monarchs. Nicole’s one blood drop away from becoming Raihn’s vampire wife, while Marisa just wants to be an off-grid immortal sipping deer blood and minding her business. There’s terrible beer, suspicious alliances, a minister who definitely needs to be reported to supernatu...

Serpent & the Wings of Night: P1 - The One Where the Human Brings a Knife to a Vampire Fight 02.10.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where sisters Marisa and Nicole dive fang-first into Serpent and the Wings of Night! We debate wing aesthetics, expose our Dad’s iPhone farm, dodge murder demons, and maybe start a vampire parenting critique group. One lone human enters the vampire death games—no fangs, no magic, no night vision, and a human smell even the flesh sack...

The Measure: The One Where Our Tangents Were the Long Stringers 18.09.2025

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, for a much-needed palate cleanser as they dig into The Measure… and accidentally spend more time on grudges than the actual book. There’s fake forgiveness, petty Facebook stalking, high school drama, and just enough short-stringer talk to technically call this a book episode. Is Nicole rooting for your downfall? Only if you burned her without a heartfelt go...

Onyx Storm Theories: The One Where We Blame Rebecca, Again 24.04.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole dive headfirst into Rebecca Yarros’ chaos web of dragon eggs, memory-wipes, and emotionally unstable men. With zero facts but 100% conviction, they accidentally rewrite the entire Empyrean series, and it's pretty good. Theories range from “plausible” to “Rebecca would sue us if she heard this.” Expect live sou...

Onyx Storm: Part 5 - The One Where Violet Connects the Dots… Eventually 18.04.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole wade into the emotional wreckage of the Onyx Storm finale. Violet is either passed out, crying, being bathed like a Victorian invalid, or slowly connecting clues with the speed of a drunk conspiracy theorist. Mira’s bleeding (again), Brennan’s buckling under his martyr complex, and Bodhi’s one dramatic monolog...

Onyx Storm: Part 4 - The One with the Elitist Dragons Who Are Judgy AF 11.04.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole spiral into dragon elitism, dream invasions, awkward lingerie deliveries, and exactly how many lightning bolts it takes to say “I love you.” The Lit Sisters cannot agree on which isle they’d survive (Nicole chooses the creepy carnival, Marisa hides in a library), what “worshipping” really means, or how many we...

Onyx Storm: Part 3 - The One Where We Tour the Isles and Collect Red Flags 03.04.2025

Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where your favorite book-loving duo, Marisa and Nicole, leave the cabin but bring the chaos. This week’s mission: diplomatic drama and dragon-sized dysfunction across the isles. There’s a full-blown international meltdown, Xaden fights for his life, Violet’s compass is as lost as she is, and Dain gets slapped straight into character...

Onyx Storm: Part 2 - The One Where Xaden's Got a Love Monologue for Every Mood 20.03.2025

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as they debate whether Xaden’s intense love language is swoon-worthy or just plain extra. He is giving “I’m a tortured soul with a tragic past” energy, and honestly, it's exhausting in the best way. Violet’s dodging venin and trying not to die while Xaden’s busy making grand romantic declarations and picking fights with Princes. Meanwhile, Riddick’s comedic...

Onyx Storm: Part 1 - The One with the Emotional Support Sarcasm 13.03.2025

The Lit Sisters are back, and this time they’re tackling the first 14 chapters of Onyx Storm. Xaden’s teaching now (hello, Professor Hot Pants), Violet’s casually committing treason before breakfast, and there’s a dramatic villain monologue — because exposition is important. Oh, and let’s not forget the knee injury so gnarly even Brennan was like, "Ew." Spoiler alert: It’s a hot mess — but the fun...

Iron Flame: Part 5 - The One Where Xaden Pulls a Plot Twist We Weren’t Ready For 06.03.2025

Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as we spiral into full-blown emotional distress over the ending of Iron Flame! We tried to stay on topic, but somehow ended up debating trademark law (can we get sued for this?), the meaning of trust (Xaden, explain yourself), and whether dragon-powered therapy is covered by insurance. The wards may be up, but our sanity is gone—thanks to battles, betrayals...

Iron Flame: Part 4 - The One Where Mom and Dad Are Fighting 27.02.2025

Your favorite Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, are back to unpack Iron Flame's mind-blowing reveals, epic fights, and just the right amount of sarcasm. We’ve got surprise second signets, dragons with grudges, and a rival-to-bestie pipeline that no one saw coming. Also, can we talk about how Andarna is consistently trying to prove she’s not a baby anymore. Buckle up— in Andarna's Baby Bjorn, it’s a...

Iron Flame: Part 3 - The One Where Xaddy Xaden Goes Full Protective Mode 20.02.2025

Join us for the latest chaos on High Tales with the Lit Sisters as Marisa and Nicole navigate betrayals, torture, and a whole lot of lightning. This week, Xaden is in full “I will burn the world for you” mode, Dain makes a surprising comeback (who saw that coming?), and Violet channels her inner Zeus. Also surprise, General Mom has layers?! There is a dramatic Griffin-Dragon showdown, an unexpecte...

Iron Flame: Part 2 - The One Where Torture Class is a Group Bonding Activity 13.02.2025

Ah, the sweet scent of betrayal, backhanded compliments, and whatever the hell that interrogation room smelled like. This week, the Lit Sisters dive into the latest chaos—Dain still doesn’t get the hint, Xaden is totally not jealous (except he absolutely is), and Violet has approximately 0.2 seconds of peace before danger inevitably finds her. Meanwhile, the squad finally learns the truth, a jacke...

Iron Flame: Part 1 - The One Where We Debate Xaden’s Red Flags and Red Hotness 06.02.2025

Join the Lit Sisters as Marisa and Nicole dive into the first part of Iron Flame, where Violet juggles assassination attempts, forced survival training, and the world’s pettiest situationship. We debate whether omissions are lies (they are), Tairn establishes himself as the ultimate dragon dad, and Xaden gets shirtless in a fight—so really, everyone wins. Plus, Violet may be too good at poisoning...

Fourth Wing: Part 3 - The One Where Violet’s Love Life is More Chaotic Than the War 30.01.2025

Tune in as the Lit Sisters spiral through the explosive Fourth Wing finale—because wow, did we not see that coming. Nicole is fuming over all the avoidable drama, Marisa is dramatically staring out of windows like she’s in a music video, and both are questioning their life choices (and Rebecca Yarros’). The dragons remain the only ones making good decisions, while the humans are out here breaking...

Fourth Wing: Part 2 - The One with the Three-Page Kiss That Deserves an Oscar 23.01.2025

What do you get when you mix one grumpy dragon, a ridiculous amount of attempted murder, and a lust-induced existential crisis? Apparently, just another week at Basgiath War College. In this episode, Nicole and Marisa break down Violet’s latest adventures, including navigating Dain’s emotional baggage, Xaden’s very inconvenient hotness, and the fact that she keeps surviving assassination attempts...

Fourth Wing: Part 1 - The One Where Shadow Daddy Xaden Smolders While Dain Helicopters 16.01.2025

Welcome to Basgiath College, where the curriculum includes walking the Parapet of Death, climbing the Gauntlet of Nope, and bonding with dragons who judge you harder than your ex’s mom. Violet’s small but mighty energy is thriving, despite Dain’s overprotective smothering and Xaden’s bad boy "I might kill you" smirks that scream “HR complaint.” Meanwhile, half the class is dead by lunch, Jack Barl...

Flicker in the Dark: The One with the Xanax-Fueled Crime Scene Debacle 09.01.2025

In this thriller-inspired episode, the Lit Sisters, Nicole and Marisa attempt to decipher what’s more suspicious: Chloe’s pill stash, her fiancé’s preppy vibes, or her brother’s forest exits... oh yeah, and her dad, who’s already a convicted serial killer. Turns out, when you’re high on Xanax, everyone looks guilty. Join the Lit Sisters as they navigate surprise parties for the anxious, questionab...

ACOTAR Theories: The One Where We Go Maas-ter Psychic 14.11.2024

The Lit Sisters are back with wild theories, spicy speculations, and an encyclopedia’s worth of mythology talk. Nicole and Marisa dive into love triangles (Elaine, Lucien, Azriel—pick a side!), suspicious fates, and whether Tamlin deserves a redemption arc (spoiler: it’s complicated). They also attempt to untangle the endless court drama, hypothesize about shadowy alliances, and wonder if THE MORR...
