Prepare for a whimsical journey through the realms of bookish fantasy and romance as we recount our latest reading adventure. We can't contain our excitement about the thrilling book releases on the horizon, including "Pride and Prejudice in Space" by Alexis Lampley and the enchanting Fairy Loot edition of "Kiki's Delivery Service." Our inner geeks are also buzzing over Ruby Dixon's upcoming minotaur stories, which promise to add a fresh twist to the fantasy genre.
Finally, we review and discuss the behemoth romantasy book, A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. Our hearts (and ratings) are divided over this novel. Kelly and Jonathan's differing takes on its Beauty and the Beast-inspired storyline reveal the book's slow progression and the interesting dynamics that evolve as the series unfolds and how foreknowledge of a series can affect your opinions. Our debate is lively, chuckling at sunk cost fallacies and swapping anecdotes of how character developments have swayed our opinions.
We delve into a passionate exploration of the fantasy-rich world and the intricate web of romance spun within. From examining the transformative journey of its protagonist to assessing the book's "spice" factor, we leave no stone unturned. Aa usual, we also have a spirited discussion about the impact of its cover art, and whether some of us will continue the series. Prepare for an engaging ride through the heart of fantasy and romance!
