February kicks off with a Galentines/Valentines-inspired episode—and yes, we start with a little controversy.

In this week’s episode of A Court of Cortisol and Chaos, we talk about overrated book boyfriends (respectfully… mostly), then move into romance-forward recommendations for every kind of February reader:

• One Valentine’s Day read

• One Galentines Day pick

• One BIPOC / LGBTQ+ recommendation

We also get personal—sharing stories about our own relationships, how we met our significant others, and why romantasy as a genre matters so deeply to us.
