ACOFAE Podcast presents: a discussion surrounding audiobooks and traditional reading
Laura Marie and Jessica Marie FIRMLY believe that all reading is valid and that whatever format you use to consume a book is perfectly wonderful. However, there are people out there that say that listening to an audiobook doesn't count. Oh, the drama. In this episode passions are running HIGH. Conversations about ableism and ageism are had and points are made that might make you step back and go "huh I never thought about it like that".
Don't tell Laura Marie's grandma that she wasn't reading. She'd have slapped you.
Rest in Peace, Anthony Bourdain.
Spoilers: No spoilers. Book mentions include The Cruel Prince , Throne of Glass , Legendborn
Author Mentions include: Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout and Scarlett St. Clair
Trigger Warnings: Discussions surrounding ableism and classism

028. The Shadow Wand: "Hide your power? 'No!' Believe in lies about yourself? 'NO!' The last 'no' comes out in a roar."
ACOFAE Podcast presents: The Shadow Wand
There is so much to say. Dragons. Assassins. Mind control. Magic. Training montage. Learning to love and accept yourself and others. Working through trauma and grief. And Laura Marie and Jessica Marie's favorite thing: awareness of the bigger picture. Book 3 of The Black Witch Chronicles has all of this and more and it is wonderful. They're worked up and talking fast about Elloren and her journey, everyone else’s journey, and there's a little mild speculation about book 4 out December 2021.
Again, if you aren't ready to FIGHT then you are part of the problem!
Laura Marie says Aislynn but it should be Sage- you'll know where
Spoilers: No major spoilers, but mentions of ACOSF, The Cruel Prince, From Blood and Ash, Six of Crows, Game of Thrones, ACOTAR, Heir of Fire
Trigger Warnings: Physical violence, suicide, mental health, domestic abuse, trauma, racism, sexism, classim

030. Serpent and Dove: I'm wonderful, appreciate me now!
ACOFAE Podcast presents: Serpent and Dove
The experiment begins! Building off last week’s audio/traditional reading episode, Jessica Marie is reading a physical copy of Serpent and Dove and Laura Marie is listening to the audiobook to see if they come to the same conclusions about the story. It's magic, witches, the Church, stuffy men and glorious women. All the elements are there to make this a fantastic read, but is it?
Mentions: The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, Outlander (tv series), Throne of Glass, The Originals, Rick and Morty
Trigger Warnings: the patriarchy and treatment towards women
