HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! We are so excited to hearken back (get it :)) to Deborah Harkness’s first book in the All Souls series, A Discovery of Witches! We read this about 10 years ago and luckily all the nostalgic feels from this fantasy book came back.

Christine brings you a chamomile tea latte, cocktail version. Why? Because we needed to make a book cocktail using ingredients that Matthew & Diana say each other smelled like, of course. We call it the “DATTHEW” - This is the couple's name and we will not be taking feedback at this time.

We dive into Discovery of Witches and chat Matthew Clairmont (only allowed to be said in a French accent), wine and tea, patriarchal dynamics (wow we’re fun), negative reviews, idyllic settings, Ysabeau (ugh, love her), and what we would name our magic houses.

As per usual we bring you our castings and MVP of the episode!

It’s our last Fourth Wing episode!! This book gave us the romantasy jolt we could never forget, so this book holds a special place in our hearts.

Christine brings you a cocktail in honour of a beloved character Liam Mairi. He is the bestest friend and he needs a bestest friend cocktail. It is a take on a gimlet cocktail with muddled rosemary and strawberry.

We chat everything Fourth Wing finale. That means we get more flirty Xaden (and more), Violet’s signet, love triangle, and an epic battle that leaves us all weeping. THEN the cliffhanger UGHHHH.

As per usual we bring you our castings and MVP of the episode!

We are breaking down these books in 4 parts. We will not chat about the plot beyond the book we are covering. SO if you have not made it to Iron Flame or Onyx Storm yet, no worries here!

Our Fourth Wing journey continues with Part 3 of 4. The tension is building AHHHH.

Jamie brings you a cocktail for the best character in this book, Tairneanach, son of Murtcuideam and Fiaclanfuil, descended from the cunning Dubhmadinn line. She finally got to do her milk-washed paper plane cocktail!

We chat Fourth Wing, which includes some epic scenes - THE. KISS., someone dies (WHAT!?), Garrick and Xaden shirtless sparring, squad battle, and the Outpost visit where Xaden-Violet flirtations are rampant.
