Cute Aggression, Feral Obsession
<p>We’re one BRat down, but no less chaotic! Caity’s cuteness aggression is whispering in her ear to bite, shake, and chomp until the cows come home. Protect your spinal corn and get ready for a more free-form version of our usual Rat Chat! It’s a Feral Rat Chat week here on Rainbow Book Rats: a Queer Romance Podcast. Brought to you by four feral besties who have left their book nests to nerd out about their favourite reads with you, and on this special edition episode, we’ll be telling you about the books we’ve read, and discussing what we’re going to read next! </p><p>Caity keeps her parts away from the superglue as she gushes about T!ts Out Slits Out by Emma Elizabeth, and JD hops in to help hype the deliciously filthy secret bathroom hookups in Charisma Check by Charlie Novak! Since Caity’s been on a roll with reading this week, she also tells us about Pinned by Love by Elaine J. Daniels. Sometimes, all you need to go from rivals-who-won’t-wrestle-together to wrestlers-who-use-the-ropes-for-some-X-rated-action, is a little forced friendship time.</p><p>Also on Caity’s list of books read was a certain monster book that you know JD is beyond feral for, so it wouldn’t be a complete episode without Caity giving JD her thoughts on Suck by Cora Rose and E.M. Lindsey.</p><p>Next, JD and Kit team up to tell us about a cinnamon roll plant dad who gets dragged into helping unleash the dragon in Dragon AU by A.M. Rose, and Kit keeps us guessing, but gives us some intriguing details about Entangled by Gale Ian Tate. </p><p>Check out episode nine (Ohhhhh, That’s Tasty) for extra discussion of Suck, and episode one (Sad Boy Show Out) for more about Immersed, the prequel to Entangled.</p><p>Whether you’re looking to discover a new favourite indie author or reminisce about queer books you already love, get listening to the Rainbow Book Rats podcast today!
