Crescent City | House of Earth & Blood
Welcome to our latest episode, where we dive into Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas!
Major spoiler warning ahead!
In true fashion, we sit down and unpack everything—characters, development, world-building, magic, our love/hate moments, and SJM’s incredible gift for immersive, descriptive visualization. We dissect our emotions, our connections to the characters, how they make us feel (or infuriate us), and of course, our thoughts on the term "Alphahole." Woof.
Bryce, Hunt, Ruhn, Danika and the pack, Lehabah, Jesiba, Juniper, Fury—so many unforgettable characters that still live rent-free in our minds!
