L.A.M.E. Book Club Podcast

Sarah dropped the titles, blurbs, AND cover art for ACOTAR 6 and 7 today and Melissa is (solo, sorry our mics did not survive the emergency pod attempt) breaking down everything we just learned about Splintered Harmony and Forgotten Melody — aka the Valkyrie Cycle Movements. From an initial Ragnarok theory to a full pivot into "is Gwyn secretly a Lightsinger," plus what the blurbs might mean for the Lucien/Elain/Azriel love triangle, the Dusk Court, and those Crescent City connections we've been tracking since House of Flame and Shadow — these are all our predictions for book 6. Drop your own theories in the comments, we might feature them on a future episode!

Melissa and Ellie are back and diving into Red Rising chapters 15 through 21, where Darrow gets drafted tenth out of a thousand (basically the NFL combine but with more murder), and finds himself trapped in a Silver Elite–coded nightmare with a golden ring and a body count of one. Also covered this week: whether a hot dog is a sandwich (it is not, fight us), the ongoing "prestigious vs. prestigious" pronunciation war, our sudden and deeply unqualified discovery that Pierce Brown is, in fact, hot, and the horrifying realization that Cassius has no idea what Darrow just did to his twin brother. Bonus points if you can explain the house system to us before we lose our minds over it.

Darrow's world just cracked wide open — chapters 8 through 14 take him from the mines straight into a secret plot to turn him into a Gold, complete with surgery, new eyes, dance lessons, and a card test that broke both our brains. We're going chapter-by-chapter through Red Rising, and this is where the story stops being Hunger Games in space and starts becoming something all its own. Want more? These episodes are recorded ahead for our Patreon along with a Morning Star read-through and bonus afterparty content — join us there to read along before anyone else and get 15% off all merch.

Melissa and Ellie close out House of Flame and Shadow with chapters 94 through 102, covering Bryce's black-hole science experiment gone wrong, her very temporary death and resurrection (thanks, Hypaxia), the "they shared souls during the sex" debacle, the reunion of Ruhn and Lidia's boys, and one very disappointing Ariadne appearance — plus a Kanye West detour, an Incredibles/Prince of Egypt tangent, and the girls holding Rebecca Yarros accountable. This wraps the main feed's Crescent City coverage for now — next week we kick off our Red Rising series, so if you haven't read it yet, get on it. Threshing Day and ACOTAR 6 talk is coming closer to release. Patreon members: your afterparty is up now with even more thoughts we couldn't say out loud. Follow us everywhere @LameBookClubPod and grab merch at lamebookclub.com (Patreon gets you 15% off).
