Send us a textThis month we read and review Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn, which is book 2 in The Legendborn Cycle. Like all of our reviews, the first part is spoiler free. (Don't forget to check out the outtakes at the end of the episode!)Here's a little about Bloodmarked:The shadows have risen, and the line is law.All Bree wanted was to uncover the truth behind her mother's death. So she infiltrated the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur's knights—only to discover her own ancestral power. Now, Bree has become someone new: A Medium. A Bloodcrafter. A Scion. But the ancient war between demons and the Order is rising to a deadly peak. And Nick, the Legendborn boy Bree fell in love with, has been kidnapped.Bree wants to fight, but the Regents who rule the Order won't let her. To them, she is an unknown girl with unheard-of power, and as the living anchor for the spell that preserves the Legendborn cycle, she must be protected. When the Regents reveal they will do whatever it takes to hide the war, Bree and her friends must go on the run to rescue Nick themselves. But enemies are everywhere, Bree's powers are unpredictable and dangerous, and she can't escape her growing attraction to Selwyn, the mage sworn to protect Nick until death.If Bree has any hope of saving herself and the people she loves, she must learn to control her powers from the ancestors who wielded them first—without losing herself in the process.Do you have a book you'd like us to review on this show?

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Series Fatigue: The Dryad Storm by Laurie Forest Being excited about a new release can be scary. Being excited about a new release that is ALSO the conclusion to the series is another level of excited/scary. When that new release that is also the conclusion of the series then turns out to be a DNF for BOTH Laura Marie and Jessica Marie, then the question becomes? Was it them? or Is it really that bad? The Black Witch Chronicles comes to an end with The Dryad Storm, the book that was such a DNF that is sparked a question about fatigue and the willingness to journey through the slog. How much is the reader's time worth? When do you take ownership of your reading and acknowledge that you are not having fun? What other series suffer from series fatigue? If any? All that and more is discussed as ACOFAE Laura and ACOFAE Jessica pinpoint where the series lost them and why. "Anything for the pod, but not this."

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Glow of the Everflame: "Going through the motions not the Emotions." You know that feeling when a book series makes you FEEL something?

We're continuing Bree's fraught journey through the Legendborn world with Bloodmarked! Tracy Deonn's followup to Legendborn takes Bree far from UNC and the Arthurian Order and into her ancestors' other magical communities. There are so many hot magical boys and SO MUCH PLOT and by the end we need an aether shot at The Crossroads. We debate cambion morality, where we'd make edits and the dramatic change in narrative scope and setting from the first book. #justiceforselwynEPISODE MEDIACover artist Hillary D.

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: The Phoenix King: "Then die." You know how Laura Marie loves it when 'the thing" in a story happens? WELL buckle up because all the things are happening in Aparna Verma's The Phoenix King, previously The Boy with Fire. Politics, plot twists, religious fervor, and a red herring that took ACOFAE by surprise, The Phoenix King is a rich tapestry of new and old traditions. Technology and tradition are woven together to create a world where the gods might exist, magic might exist, but power and vengeance DO exist no question. When the old king bends to tradition and his daughter is set to take the throne, old enemies and old gods use the opportunity to make themselves known and cause the ultimate chaos. Filled with a ruthless heroine, mythical creatures, and a love story that is very sweet, The Phoenix King swept ACOFAE away.

Hannah and Laura are finishing up Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn and cover the last third of the plot. They are doing their best to keep up with this book, however, they both remember a classic Patricia moment. But before they dive into Bloodmarked, a book in which they hope the characters remain single,  Laura shares about a book that she loved that features one of her new favorite fantasy creatures and Hannah nearly hyperventilates in joy over some YA books that she read recently. Hannah also watched too many(?) episodes of a show that Laura's parents (probably) love.***This episode contains SPOILERS for Legendborn and Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn.
