In this revisited episode of Literature on the Rocks, we’re cracking open Hooked by Emily McIntire once again—a morally gray, villain-forward reimagining of Peter Pan that lives rent-free in our heads. With a little distance (and a few more books under our belts), Sunny, Rachel, and Rox take a fresh look at James “Hook”: his obsession, his trauma, and whether his allure actually holds up on a second pour.

We’re rehashing the plot, revisiting our hottest takes, and yes—reliving the moment Rox realized (late) exactly what fairy tale this was. Pair it with our custom cocktail Pixie Lust, brace yourself for dark romance energy, and join us as we give this listener favorite a well-deserved refill.

Pour yourself a Sleigh My Name cocktail — because this week on Literature on the Rocks, we’re heading back to Fraizer Falls for our book club episode of Holiday Ever After by Hannah Grace!

Sunny, Rachel, and Rox read your comments, answer the book prompts, and dive into all the listener hot takes. Expect warmth, chaos, holiday banter, and at least one moment where one of us nearly cries (it’s December, emotions are high). As always, your comments make these episodes, so keep them coming!

This week on Literature on the Rocks, we’re unwrapping Hannah Grace’s festive new holiday romance, Holiday Ever After — a sugary-sweet, small-town love story that had all three of us kicking our feet like we were in a Hallmark movie… but with way better spice.

We follow Clara, a big-city corporate queen who escapes to the charming snowy town of Fraizer Falls, where hot chocolate is basically a personality trait and flannel is mandatory. Enter Jack, the town’s resident toy maker with forearms strong enough to carve and cuddle.

We’re breaking down the plot from start to finish, talking through all the swoony scenes, the small-town shenanigans, and the moments that had us ready to pack our bags for Fraizer Falls ourselves. And of course, we top it all off with our custom cocktail, Sleigh My Name, and signature shot rating.

If you love holiday romances, cinnamon roll heroes, festive vibes, and small-town charm, this episode is your new December comfort listen.
