Shadows, Moonlight and Desperation

In today's installment of Nightbane, Isla continues to attempt to seduce Oro (she is so desperate it's kind of sad) while also proposing a public demonstration of her powers via a traditional Wildling feast. Shadow Daddy broadcasts a warning to all of Lightlark declaring war and offering an ultimatum: leave Lightlark or die with the island. Fearing the worst, Isla makes an appeal to Cleo to stay on Lightlark. We also witness the final version of Chris's version of Isla's musical voice. 😅 📖 Support Novel Ideas 📖 Join us on Patreon for bonus episodes and tomfoolery: https://www.patreon.com/TheLibraryofCursedBooks Support the Library of Cursed Books by buying a “cursed book” via Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/novelideaspod Check out our merch: https://my-store-eee38b.creator-spring.com/ Collab with Us: https://forms.gle/eAhPjNofem4HPYtS7 Business Inquiries: novelideaspod@gmail.com 📖 Affiliate Links 📖 Pango Books: https://pangobooks.com/ELSAROCHELLE New users can save $5 off their first order of $10+ by using code ELSAROCHELLE at checkout ♡ 📖 Get Social with Novel Ideas! 📖 Novel Ideas Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/novelideas Elsa’s Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/elsarochelle Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/novelideas.bsky.social Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/novelideaspod/ Twitter: https://x.com/novelideas_pod Linktree: https://linktr.ee/novelideaspod Elsa's GoodReads: http://www.goodreads.com/elsarochelle Elsa’s Linktree: https://linktr.ee/lacunathelost Chris’s GoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/162528952-c-mallinger Chris’s Linktree: https://linktr.ee/teerexington 📖 Sources 📖 Nightbane, Alex Aster

A Leopard by Any Other Name

We’re baaaaaaack! And so is our girl Isla. In today’s adventures, Isla seeks out an animal companion as well as Oro’s pet snake (if you know what we’re saying, lol). We also get more of that sweet, sweet enemies-to-lovers tension between Isla and Grim via Isla’s dreams/memories!

Welcome to Oro’s Rock of Love

In today’s episode, Elsa forces Chris to read the first almost spicy scene between Isla and Grim as we explore memories of a love forgotten. …Or at least a love erased from Isla’s memory until the untangling of her powers leads her to dream of her past with our favorite Shadow Daddy. Meanwhile in the present Oro teaches us that love is blindfolding your partner and hurling rocks at them. Seriously, it’s better than sex. 📖 Ask Us Questions 📖 NGL: https://ngl.link/novelideas 📖 Support Novel Ideas 📖 Join us on Patreon for bonus episodes and tomfoolery: https://www.patreon.com/TheLibraryofCursedBooks Support the Library of Cursed Books by buying a “cursed book” via Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/novelideaspod Check out our merch: https://my-store-eee38b.creator-spring.com/ Collab with Us: https://forms.gle/eAhPjNofem4HPYtS7 Business Inquiries: novelideaspod@gmail.com Suggestions for Neurotica Erotica: elsafromnovelideas@gmail.com 📖 Affiliate Links 📖 Pango Books: https://pangobooks.com/ELSAROCHELLE New users can save $5 off their first order of $10+ by using code ELSAROCHELLE at checkout ♡ 📖 Get Social with Novel Ideas! 📖 NovelIdeas Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/novelideas Elsa’s Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/elsarochelle Threads: https://www.threads.net/@novelideaspod Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/novelideas.bsky.social Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/novelideaspod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/novelestofideas Linktree: https://linktr.ee/novelideaspod Elsa's GoodReads: http://www.goodreads.com/elsarochelle Chris’s GoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/162528952-c-mallinger 📖 Sources 📖 Nightbane, Alex Aster

We’re baaaack! On today’s episode, we catch up a bit with what Alex Aster has been up to lately before diving back into Nightbane.

The Sweater Nobody Asked For (Part Five)

As truths are revealed, Elsa struggles not to scream as one of them has her so frustrated that she’s still not over it to this day. Was Elsa able to guess who the traitor was? Were you? You probably already know that we consider this book to be cursed, but just how cursed was it? Trigger Warnings: This episode contains a conversation about a character’s family responding cruelly to their coming out. If this sort of familial trauma isn’t safe for you to listen to, please skip this one or skip ahead when we get to this section (which starts at 19:21 and ends at 23:28). Your mental health is always the most important thing. This book also contains discussions about a character’s adoption, mentions of emotional abuse between partners and occasional mentions of recreational drug use. 📖 Support Novel Ideas 📖 Join us on Patreon for bonus episodes and tomfoolery: https://www.patreon.com/TheLibraryofCursedBooks Support the Library of Cursed Books by buying a “cursed book” via Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/novelideaspod Check out our merch: https://my-store-eee38b.creator-spring.com/ Collab with Us: https://forms.gle/eAhPjNofem4HPYtS7 Business Inquiries: novelideaspod@gmail.com 📖 Get Social with Novel Ideas! 📖 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/novelideas YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NovelIdeasPod Threads: https://www.threads.net/@novelideaspod X-Twitter: https://twitter.com/novelideas_pod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/novelideaspod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/novelestofideas Elsa’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ElsaRochelle Elsa’s Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/elsarochelle Elsa's GoodReads: http://www.goodreads.com/elsarochelle Chris’s GoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/162528952-c-mallinger 📖 Sources 📖 Argylle, Elly Conway Why Matthew Vaughn Still Believes He Could Make an ‘Argylle’ Sequel (Collider): https://collider.com/argylle-2-matthew-vaughn/

The Sweater Nobody Asked For (Part Four)

Is spiky hair the best way to identify an enemy? It is if you’re Glenn Dabrowski! Mysteries abound in the palais du plaisir as we piece together the words of a disgraced French noble as read in his diary (aka journal, aka notebook of daily thoughts). As certain clues fall into place, Elsa makes her first official guesses as to who the traitor in our midst may actually be. ((Correction on Elsa’s Twitch games; she is playing Pokemon Shining Pearl on Sundays instead of Silver Rival but this episode was recorded before the switch.)) Trigger Warnings: This episode contains non-graphic mentions of a sexual assault. If this is too much for you right now, please protect your mental health and skip this one. Your health and safety is always the most important. This book also contains discussions about a character’s adoption, mentions of emotional abuse between partners and occasional mentions of recreational drug use. 📖 Support Novel Ideas 📖 Join us on Patreon for bonus episodes and tomfoolery: https://www.patreon.com/TheLibraryofCursedBooks Support the Library of Cursed Books by buying a “cursed book” via Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/novelideaspod Check out our merch: https://my-store-eee38b.creator-spring.com/ Collab with Us: https://forms.gle/eAhPjNofem4HPYtS7 Business Inquiries: novelideaspod@gmail.com 📖 Get Social with Novel Ideas! 📖 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/novelideas YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NovelIdeasPod Threads: https://www.threads.net/@novelideaspod X-Twitter: https://twitter.com/novelideas_pod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/novelideaspod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/novelestofideas Linktree: https://linktr.ee/novelideaspod Elsa’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ElsaRochelle Elsa’s Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/elsarochelle 📖 Sources 📖 Argylle, Elly Conway Wiki Article On The Nazi Gold Train: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_gold_train
