In this week's episode of Pages n' Pages, we dive into the sarcastic sci-fi book Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton and narrated by John Prihalla and Katherine Chin. We both listened to the audiobook and highly recommend it! This story takes place far into the future as humans are working on colonizing other planets. Every crew needs an expendable, someone who never fully dies, and Mickey Barnes is that for this crew. Mickey is the 7th iteration of himself, and this time, he doesn't want to die. For fans of Andy Weir and Martha Wells!

We read the why choose reverse harem paranormal monster romance A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Kathryn Moon! And we have to tell you, while it was spicy, we felt it left some monsters on the table! IE _ IF THERE IS A DUDE WITH HORNS YOU MUST FCK THE DUDE WITH HORNS DUHBut we digress. We had a ton of fun watching this reverse harem monster romance. The MC is a lusty human in Victorian-ish times and a Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde type seduces her and tells her of a place where she might be a perfect fit. Which is essentially a high-class monster brothel.

It's bonkers how fearlessly Kate pushes the characters to be mean to each other, all the while walking the tightrope of never making us hate either of them! Also—hate sex. So much exceptional hate sex. Sophie's latest, is https://www.sophiejordan.net/therakegetsravished.html (The Rake Gets Ravished). I'm not going to try to do it justice…instead I'll just drop this from the blurb and let you make the right choice: No one trifles with Silas Masters. Even if he could forget the dark-haired seductress who undid him, he can't allow anyone to steal from him. He will hunt down the sultry woman who haunts his dreams and show her just how sweet payback can be. Her next book features a lady blacksmith and a spectacularly sexy cover and she told us seeccccretttts about it that we can't tell you, but you can hear her mercilessly tease us at the end of the episode.

This time on What the Smut we are discussing A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Kathryn Moon. Lisa requested a book with more sex from the Facebook group Deliciously Dark & Dirrty Readers and this is the recommendation that she chose for us. It is certainly a winner! We definitely are in the mood to slut praise our heroine Ester for finding her calling in monster sex work. She knows what she likes and isn't afraid to take it. The book is broken into two episodes because we had so many awesome characters to chat about. We rated the heat level in this book as erotic due to the incredible selection of erections. Not every lady is cut out for sex work and fewer even for sex work with the things that go bump in the night. Thankfully Ester is not just any lady. We adored her devotion to her men and her vibrant spirit of exploration.  The first episode, Shameless Sex Work, brings up topics of safe sex, slut praising and Kandy tries to pop everyone's bubble about the myth of doctors vibrating women to orgasm due to hysteria.  We will be back next week with the conclusion to our discussion!    

Are you turned on right now? In this episode Michelle & Rose dive into their favourite book and take us on a wild ride through old London is the steamy book of: "A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor" by Kathryn Moon If monster men in a reverse harem sound like your cup of tea this is the book. for. you!

We're joined by Nisha Sharma to recap https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B07QMLP2QP&linkCode=kpe&preview=newtab&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_Y3MXGBPQQSPPMX2CK32E&tag=bonkersromance-20 (The Initiation) by Nikki Sloane! This book had us all questioning who gave Nikki Sloane permission to write this and the answer is that she's exactly the kind of brave author we started the podcast to celebrate. We revel in the intrigue, sexual tension, and (ahem) the ritual it eventually builds to. We bow down before Nikki Sloane. Nisha's latest is https://www.amazon.com/Dating-Dr-Dil-Nisha-Sharma-ebook/dp/B08W58Q5MX/ref=sr_1_1?crid=26N7PJ2UB7FX1&keywords=dating%20dr%20dil&qid=1647420178&sprefix=dating%20%2Caps%2C131&sr=8-1 (Dating Dr. Dil), a sexy, hilarious, clever reimagining of The Taming of the Shrew that turns it all on its head in the most brilliant way.

We're joined by one of our favorite BookTokers, Hillary (https://www.tiktok.com/@bookishhill (@bookishhill)), to recap Love and Monsters by Raven Flanagan! Our minds were blown in the best possible way when Hillary shared her path to becoming a bonkers romance reader and the journey she's been on for the last year! This absolute delight of a book features a human who finds herself accidentally transported to a monster world where she gets chucked into a dungeon with a demon who has many redeeming qualities for a cellmate. Not only can he efficiently deal with her period in a way we're frankly jealous of, but he's (ahem) massively well endowed and can procure things like hot baths while locked in a dungeon. We laughed excessively while recording it and we hope you will too while listening, but don't be fooled—we adored the book!

RM Virtues joined us to recap The Mummy! Jenny got to watch this Romancelandia favorite film for the first time and it was a delight! We fangirl over R.M., discuss why this film is in fact a tri-awakening rather than a bi-awakening, and generally flail at the magnitude of bonkers this swashbuckling romp pulls off.

We're joined by Robin Lovett to recap The Mabon Feast by C.M. Nascosta! We delve into Robin's thoughts on bonkers books and why none of us should carry any shame about them—as well as her thoughts on author core stories. Then, we recap the delicious snack that is The Mabon Feast, a sexy romance between a socially awkward witch and a very charming (and hot) spider centaur. What exactly is sloshing with his shimmering release? It may not be what you're thinking! Robin's latest is the fourth book in the glorious Alien Quarantine series.

The lessons keep on coming! In this final episode in my miniseries on what I've learned from romance, I encounter...monster erotica. I'm tardy to the party, so giggle along with me as I explore my "first-won't-be-last" monster fucking romance, and listen to an excerpt from an erotic monster story--full of tentacle sex--by guest author VB Beringer.BooksA Lady of Rooksgrave Manor is Book 1 in the short Tempting Monsters series. It's sweet, hot, steamy, intriguing and tender, all at once, which makes it the perfect intro to monster erotica. It's available on Kindle Unlimited. Guest writer VB Beringer specializes in fantasy, science-fiction and other erotica sub-genres. He read an excerpt from "Night Fever" from The Rift Walker erotic action-adventure series, available on Medium. Find links to his writing here. He creates custom erotica, people!TV ShowsThere are two seasons of the sweetly kinky Bonding on Netflix and this show could not be more sex positive about BDSM while also having a good bit of fun with it, too. Sex Education has to be one of the most delightful sexual coming of age stories ever committed to film. This series, about the teenage son of a sex therapist who decides to make some extra money by giving sex advice to his classmates, is absolutely delightful and the young ensemble cast is incredible. Gillian Anderson as the gorgeously randy sex therapist is a highlight. No monster fucking but pretty much every other kind of sexual challenge makes an appearance in this hilarious but tender show.

This week we read “A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor,” by Kathryn Moon On the brink of losing her position as a maid and with no prospects to go on, the offer of a place at Rooksgrave Manor—a house of ill and unusual repute—sounds like a perfect fit for a young woman with Esther's inclinations. Even better, the invitation comes by the hand of the handsome Dr. Underwood, a delicate gentleman with a ferocious alter ego who knows exactly what he wants from Esther. How did we rate it? What did we think? Find out on this episode of diktok. https://www.tiktok.com/@diktokpod https://www.instagram.com/diktokpod/

We're joined by Liz from thehttps://www.makeoutalreadypod.com/ ( Make Out Already) podcast to recap Sing Me to Sleep by R.M. Virtues! We discuss how Melody is into grandpa fucking and why Jenny is livid she didn't get to read this book (which has since been rectified!). Because y'all. It's about a sexy, protective sleep paralysis demon. I'm not telling you more than that. It's too good to summarize. Everyone needs to go read this book immediately.

We recap https://amzn.to/2ZlpXTo (I Married a Naga) by Regine Abel with Stacey Hamel! Many of you already know and love Stacey, but for those who don't, we thought it was high time to introduce you to her beautiful brain. She's an admin of our Facebook group,https://www.facebook.com/groups/195432502418826 (The Altar of Defiant Joy), and Patron Saint of the https://www.tiktok.com/@bonkersromance (Bonkers Romance TikTok). We've affectionately dubbed her our Adminotaur. We talked about many things, but the most important is clearly that Jenny finally got to recap a book with a motherfudging c*ck pocket! This book features a human woman who is forced into an arranged marriage with an alien snake man when she accidentally violates the law on his planet. But he's marrying her to save her from being executed and is actually a cinnamon roll, sexy provider whose snake parts convince his lady that humans are vastly inferior lovers.

We're joined by Alexis Daria to recap https://amzn.to/30xPE3w (Alien Quarantine Rescue) by Robin Lovett! This was Jenny's very first Robin Lovett book and she's obsessed! It starts in an all too realistic setting where the world has gone to hell after a pandemic and the heroine has been alone for five years…but very, very quickly changes to a marvelous fantasy when an alien lands in her front yard offering antibodies. Copious amounts of antibodies. We talked about how much we love romances like this when the love interests are from different species having to learn about one another, why Robin Lovett is an effing genius, that one time Jenny f*cked someone unconscious, and why semen is going to be a complete disappointment after this book.

This book has it all...time travel, a heroine fleeing a dark secret in her past, meddling fae, a murderous ex girlfriend, not one but two near death sick bed scenes, sensory deprivation, Highlander Times viagra, an accidental aphrodisiac scene, light kidnapping, and one swaggering Highlander who's so generously hung that comparisons to actual horses are made.

This monster can be a prejudice, fear, insecurity, trauma and so on. We believe that romance novels are as much about one's personal journey as they are about finding love. After all, love makes us vulnerable and forces us to bare our monsters to another.

The saying goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover" but it can't be helped - they're so beautiful sometimes.

In this week's episode, two major Twi-hards hop on the nostalgia train and discuss all things Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. From our early fangirl days to our recent Twilight renaissance, we dive into the series from start to finish. We are indeed “Super Massive” Twilight fans…mostly for nostalgia purposes, but also because the movies are terrible and yet amazing. We're both apparently very passionate about Twilight because we talked about for 1 1/2 hours. If you listen all the way to the end, you're a trooper! Books we mention in this episode: Where'd You Go Bernadette by Maria Semple, A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Katheryn Moon (Morgan says the name wrong many times in this episode), Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, New Moon by Stephanie Meyer, Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer, Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer, Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer.

Heidi wants to talk about two books this week she didn't finish - but for two very different reasons. 1. The first book - The Golden Dynasty by Kristen Ashley a fantasy romance was due to two problems. Her frustration that the authors made up fantasy language was never translated, so you never knew what the hero was saying. EVER! (A translator shows up but she isn't there very much!) And the heroine was about as interesting as a dish rag. (Also the author made some interesting choices about the Hero at the start of the book... more on that in the pod.)If you don't want the snark, starting at minute 19 - 2. A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Kathryn Moon is a Reverse Harem. Heidi tried this genre, knowing it isn't her thing. This book is really great, but Heidi just can't do RH. She wanted to talk about it anyway because those of you that like RH, might really like this book! This is a positive review, just not Heidi's thing. She fell in love with one of the guys and that was it, it was too hard to read about the heroine with the others. Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

We review "A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor," but don't worry. That DoV knife scene made it into this podcast, too.

The time has come for us to share with you what we're currently reading, watching, or salivating over in our newest episode! This week on Romancing the Monsters, we obsess over monsters, orcs, ranch owners and men of the mafia. Marge explains the special appendage on her newest alien discovery and S and Seff try to visualize what that could possibly look like. Oh, and we attempt to understand what a ménage à trois with monsters would entail… Basically, conversations turn in a very interesting dickrection!

This monster can be a prejudice, fear, insecurity, trauma and so on. We believe that romance novels are as much about one's personal journey as they are about finding love. After all, love makes us vulnerable and forces us to bare our monsters to another.
