Show Notes

Is A Court of Thorns and Roses just The Hunger Games with fae? Sophie, our first-time ACOTAR reader, can’t unsee it. Sarah and Sallie are rereading and have spotted the seeds Sarah J. Maas planted for book two. We go through chapters 1–5: a starving hunter, a very large wolf with horns, and a crossing into Prythian.

Spoilers for chapters 1–5 only – we won’t spoil anything from later in the series.

We also settle how to pronounce Feyre and Prythian (we think), and disagree about whether Feyre is any fun to spend time with.

Next readalong episode: everything up to and including chapter 16, out in two weeks. Our regular episode lands next week.
