  • Tell Me I'm Worthless by Alison Rumfitt (Spoilers)
    2024/10/25

    TRIGGER WARNING


    Sexual assault, physical assault, racism, mind control, anti-seimitism, trans phobia, murder, bdsm, sex work, drug use


    We take a turn from the romantasy to read a horror book by a trans author (at Izzy's request). This book is a lot of things and boring is not one of them. It is a painful and disturbing exploration of fascism in Britain that is represented as a haunted house that convinces people to turn on each other.


    Aryn did not like it and was very confused by it. In this episode special guest Taylor and host Izzy help host Aryn understand and break down the symbolism and metaphors in this incredibly resonant and complex horror novel. This book is not for the faint of heart. Proceed with caution.

  • Tower of Dawn by Sarah J Maas (Spoilers)
    2024/06/29

    SPOILERS IN HERE Trigger warning for disability, violence, and abusive dynamics between some characters. No torture this time, but there will be mention of it. We made it to book 7 of 8 in the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas. The ever controversial Tower of Dawn is, according to many, supposed to be tandem read with Empire of Storms because the events are happening at the same time. Tower of Dawn is an entire book of just the side quest that Chaol and Nesryn go on while the rest of the characters are doing other stuff in Empire of Storms. We didn’t tandem read and it was not a problem. Don't let anyone bully you into doing that for Pete's sake.

    Anyway, we read this 600+ page side quest book so you don't have to. Izzy sustained psychological damage from reading it, but what else is new? #adventures #authorspotlight #podcast #booktok #bookrecommendations #bookreview #throneofglass #bookstoread #catsofinstagram #catsoftiktok #fantasy #fantasybooks #fantasybookreview #catsandbooks #kittens #sarahjmaas #authors #authortube PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/CatsandBooksPodcast Instagram @catsandbookspod
