Conspiracy Theories: Blood & Ash Edition pt. 2
In episode 69, we're looking at the second half of the FBAA/ALITF saga for any theories or guesses to get our hopes up for the next book, A Soul of Ash and Blood.

From questions of loyalty to heartbreaking betrayals, we try to unravel the threads of our own thoughts, seeking answers where possible and more questions where necessary. This week's part includes The War of Two Queens, A Shadow in the Ember, and A Light in the Flame. Join us in preparing for this month's new release! Got something to say?

In episode 67, we're talking about James Baldwin's If Beale Street Could Talk, a novel that explores the love story between Tish and Fonny, two young African Americans living in 1970s New York City. Between Fonny's wrongful imprisonment and Tish's preparation for their child, it seems as though they have every reason to lose hope, but Baldwin's frank writing style blends together the hope and fear throughout the book. The result is a beautiful and heart-wrenching portrayal of love in the face of adversity. Got something to say?

In episode 64, we're talking about the finale to Kerri Maniscalco's Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy. Kingdom of the Feared is the fantastic ending to Emilia's story, her journey back to herself. After months of mourning Vittoria's death, and then discovering Vittoria was not actually dead and also possibly the one behind all of their troubles, Emilia returns to her full power, breaks curses, saves her love, and has time to cook food between everything. She's proof that we can have it all, ladies (except magic powers? We're still unsure of how we feel about THAT part). This book also serves what we were so desperately waiting for: sex with Wrath. The bedroom cliffhanger in book two might have left us wanting more, but KOTF picks right back up where things left off, finally jumping into the spice we've been waiting for. Got something to say?

Season Finale: The Hottest & the Messiest Characters of Season 5
In episode 61, we're going down the list of season 5 characters deciding who to marry, f*ck, or kill. After several conversations deep, we quickly realize that Nektas holds the daddy of the season award. We make some shrewd judgements ranking the characters by most hot and most messy (sorry Edward and Bella). Never have we been more excited to continue the Hollows series and follow our hottest character of the season, Rachel Morgan. If you have any thoughts, email us at inbedwithbookspodcast@gmail.com, or dm us on Instagram @inbedwithbookspod. You can also reach us on our Discord.

Bethany finally gave the "okay" and the last read of the season is Dead Witch Walking by Kim Harrison, the first in The Hollows series. Taking place in an alternate world, eerily similar to our own, Dead Witch Walking introduces us to Rachel Morgan, a witch, and her investigative partners, Jenks and Ivy, who all quickly earn our love and Rachel's loyalty. A classic detective novel mixed with the charm of a fantasy novel, this book wastes no time jumping into the action and the drama of Rachel's life. This is the first of many books in The Hollows series (18 so far!), and we're so happy to share a few with you here on the podcast.
