The "Icks" and "Awes" of Reading
Manage episode 404960496 series 3554043
Our latest episode is a whirlwind through the trending "icks" and "awes" that shape our reading adventures. This time around, we’re peeling back the layers of storytelling that captivate us, from the nuanced villains who command our empathy to the unexpected humor that makes us cackle. Our conversation meanders through the pitfalls of certain tropes—we're looking at you, unexpected pregnancy plotlines—and celebrates the emotional payoff of a well-crafted love triangle. Curl up with us as we muse over the aesthetics of book covers that are too enticing to resist and share our personal reading preferences, quirks included!
