Hold on to your tits — this one’s a wild ride. This week we dive into the deliciously unhinged chaos of Brynne Weaver’s Ruinous Love Trilogy, starting with Butcher & Blackbird. What began as an unexpected pick from Laurel quickly turned into a hilariously disturbing good time.

Think classic film villains with a dash of Dexter energy, an endearing-but-feral MMC, and a neurotic, antisocial FMC who somehow steals the show. It’s dark, it’s chaotic, it’s weirdly wholesome… and we have questions about ourselves afterward.

Grab your favorite bourbon (bonus points if you’ve got Weller) or mix up a cucumber margarita and join us as we unpack the mayhem — including why this book has permanently ruined orzo pasta and cookies & cream ice cream for us.

Chaos, cocktails, and questionable life choices await. 🎧🥃🍹

This week Laurel, Claire, and ‘Stina dive fang-first into the chaotic world of book-to-screen adaptations—the good, the meh, and the absolute “who approved this?” disasters. From adaptations that completely lost the plot to the ones that actually understood the assignment, nothing is safe from our judgment.

We’re talking the cultural fever dream that is Twilight, the adaptations that did it right (Bridgerton, Outlander), and the ones that had us yelling at our TVs. Naturally, we also build our dream adaptation wishlist—because if Hollywood is listening, we’re ready for Fourth Wing, ACOTAR, and a few lesser-known gems to get their moment on screen.

And somehow… glitter dicks enter the conversation.

Pour yourself a drink and join us for an episode full of hot takes, chaotic energy, and a whole lot of bookish TV drama. 🍷📚

We’re back with Part 2 of our Fourth Wing deep dive… and things immediately go off the rails.

Does the title have anything to do with the book? Not really. Did we actually make a cocktail this time? YES. ‘Stina brings a “measure with your heart” Mexican Hot Chocolate riff that may or may not be mostly vibes. Do we stay on topic? You already know the answer.

It’s dragons. It’s detours. It’s drinks.

We’re just three women trying to survive our TBRs, our opinions, and the slow burn of unfinished fantasy series.

Grab a cocktail, saddle your dragon, and join us for the chaos. 🎙️🍷
