📕💀🕯️Hey, readers - this week we’re taking some time to discuss our upcoming season of standalones only. Instead of choosing a full series this time around, each of us have chosen a book to review and discuss. We ended up with a dark academia vibe, which we are not upset about at all.

Join us to discuss our choices for the upcoming season: Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang, If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio, and The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova! Are you excited for these reads? What are your favorite standalones?

Listeners! This week we're reacting to the interview that shook the book community. That's right. We FINALLY got ACOTAR news.

From lore hints and cryptic answers to moments that had us pausing the audio to go, "Wait. WHAT?", this interview had the fandom buzzing, and so we obviously had to weigh in.

Did we learn anything new? Maybe. Did we spiral into theories? Absolutely. Was it informative? Debatable. But was it entertaining? Absolutely.

We're overanalyzing, theorizing, spiraling, and we hope that you join us on the crazy train. So grab your red string board because the speculation is getting out of hand...just like us.

So are you excited for the upcoming books? What about what SJM revealed about her personal life? What are your theories about whose story will take center stage in ACTOAR 5? 6? 7? Whatever number it is...

Welcome to the happy ending, readers~ This week we discuss some of the intricacies of Serena’s heat and how the book ends on both a high AND low note! We’d love to hear your thoughts this week.

Did you feel just as confused about the endings as we did? We wanted concrete answers! So many ends left untied. Join us as we wrap up Ali Hazelwood’s Mate with a lot of laughs this week.

Hey, readers! We’re back with part 3 of our discussion on Mate. This week we discuss all the sordid details concerning Serena and Koen’s union. These fools are finally facing the truth, and personally, we’re thrilled to finally get to the good stuff.

How will Koen handle the new information about Serena’s mysterious illness and her family history? Protective Koen is on full display this time around, and we’re taking note of all the ways his behavior gives away his true feelings.

Even still, he’s hesitant to give everything away…how many loopholes can they take advantage of before making the decision to break a very big promise? Plus, some of our early theories have come true by the end of the section - but what will this mean for the fate of Serena and the Northwest Pack? She’s taking swooning to a whole new level.

Join us this week and tell us what you think about Koen! Let us hear your thoughts! You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, Threads and Youtube @themidnightreaderspodcast. You can also join our growing community on Patreon for bonus content and more.

Welcome back readers! It’s time to get into the good stuff~

This week we’re finally entering Koen’s territory, and it’s feeling quite domestic. Yep, we’re going to the Den that raised Lowe and brought us the very sexy, intense Koen. But what does that mean for Serena?

There’s so much to unpack for Serena as we discover that she may have a tie to the Northwest pack that doesn’t include Koen. And her presence there is not welcome by everyone. Plus, Serena’s condition is worsening, and Koen is quick to figure out she’s hiding stuff.

What will he do? Will our theory come true about the reason Serena is sick? And how long before Koen finally admits he’s absolutely head over heels? We’re living for the tension all over these pages. Join the discussion this week!

Welcome back, readers! This week we’re starting Ali Hazelwood’s Mate!

Serena Paris stars in this sequel, and we open the book with a very interesting mysterious prologue.. Who is Serena Paris and what’s going on with her? And what’s Koen’s deal? Serena Paris has been thrown into a completely new world now that she has discovered she’s half Were.

Yet.. she hasn’t been able to shift since she met the dreamy Alpha of the Northwest pack. Koen is all control, all the time, and he’s not willing to give Serena any more attention than he has to.

However, their lives are more intertwined than they can even imagine. We can’t wait to dig our teeth into this book and discover what makes them tick. Join us this week and let's discuss!

Readers - we have been thinking of Minnesota and the people affected in America recently. We wanted to leave some resources to reach out and help those in need.

Check out these links to donate to mutual aid funds or learn more about those affected in the horrible immigration raids around the US and in Minnesota. We will be donating as well, and we wish the best to all involved.

Heeeyyyy readers. In the last section of Bride, some things get turned on their heads… some of us were not happy with the ending.

This week we discuss the resolution of the mystery (who was the mastermind?!), the poisoning of Ana and Misery, Serena’s whereabouts, and the dynamics of Lowe and Misery’s relationship. Including the dynamics of a knot, once again. We definitely get a little bit candid! It feels like Season 1 all over again!

What did you guys think about the ending of Bride? Was it a total let down...Or are we taking it too far? Let us hear your thoughts!

Happy Tuesday, readers! We’re back this week with some very spicy discussions about our favorite werewolf/vampire couple!

Things are finally heating up for Lowe and Misery, especially after Ana and Misery get mysteriously sick and Lowe’s protective instincts kick in. There’s no hiding this romance anymore, babes.

What will it mean for the forbidden duo when Misery begins to feed from Lowe? Plus, the mystery behind who is seemingly poisoning our girls and breaking into apartments starts to eat at us. Surely it’s not our favorite characters!

Oh and stay tuned for a fun discussion while I explain what “knotting” is. Yeah, it's getting freaky (again) on the pod. Let’s discuss! Let us know your thoughts.
