Erotic poetry, tentacles, a scone-baking Dark Lord, and war crimes... somehow they all belong in the same episode.
This week, the ladies tackle their latest Dildo Dartboard Decisions pick: The Dark Lord's Guide to Dating by Tiffany Hunt—and it turns out to be one of the biggest surprises of the year.
Between a delightfully unconventional Dark Lord, chapter titles that get progressively more unhinged, and enough laugh-out-loud moments to keep the drinks flowing, the ladies' had an absolute blast. Along the way, 'Stina explains why she'll never fall for the classic "Knight in Shining Armor," Claire and Laurel accidentally introduce her to Portland Leather, and everyone discovers that sometimes the weirdest books are the most unforgettable.
What starts as another chaotic book club episode quickly becomes one of those rare reads that has all three ladies immediately clicking "Buy Now" for the sequel.
So pour yourself a glass of wine (Portugal optional 😉), settle in, and join us for an episode packed with laughter, spicy fantasy, unexpected heart, and just enough tentacle-related shenanigans to keep things interesting.

ACOTAR Candyland
**There was a plan... and then brunch happened.**
What started as a structured episode quickly devolved into the kind of delightfully chaotic conversation you've come to expect from the ladies. From the books they *actually* read in high school (and the ones 'Stina definitely didn't), to Brendan Fraser appreciation, and an unexpected detour into nerd culture courtesy of Henry Cavill, no topic was safe.
Of course, despite their best efforts, the conversation somehow found its way right back to the Sarah J. Maas universe. At this point, they've accepted that escaping the SJMverse is probably impossible—and honestly, they're perfectly okay with that.
Grab your favorite drink and join the chaos as the ladies chat books, fandoms, pop culture, and everything in between.

Cotton Candy Butt Plug
The ladies wrap up Brynne Weaver's delightfully chaotic Ruinous Love Trilogy with Scythe & Sparrow—all while desperately trying to caffeinate.
Miraculously, this installment committed far fewer food crimes than its predecessors, so everyone's snacks survived... this time.
Laurel actually remembered the book, 'Stina may have mixed up the entire timeline (blame the coffee... or what was added to the coffee), and Claire never managed to read it because, well... life happens.
As always, the conversation quickly derails into everything from Throne of Glass tandem reads to whatever random rabbit hole catches their attention next. If you're looking for a polished literary analysis, you're definitely in the wrong place. If you're here for laughs, cocktails, bookish chaos, and three friends who can't stay on topic to save their lives, you've found your people.
