Episode 12: Glamours & Vindication

Happy new year, Nerds! In the theme of “new year, new you”, this week's podcast episode and read along of “A Court of Thorns & Roses” by @therealsjmaas (chapters 28-30) is all about Feyre returning home from the Spring Court.

Whitney, Mindy and Deb discuss, at length, Nesta’s trauma around Tamlin's glamour not working on her. Nesta suffers through watching her sister get abducted by a beast, an attempted rape, losing her would-be fiancé, watching her other sister and father be glamoured to forget everything, all the while carrying a scratched piece of wood in her pocket to remind herself that she wasn’t going crazy. And that what she remembered was real.  We love you and see you, Nesta!

Tune in to also hear about the foreshadowing and theories around Nesta and Feyre becoming Fae and how freaking weird Elaine becomes. We can’t wait to hear what you think!

Drink up this week's "Our Nerdiest Cocktail", "Rags to Riches".  The recipe can be found here!

We are obsessed with @kelseywoodsmusic on Tiktok.  Our favorite is Nesta's Waltz.  She also composes music based off the other Sarah J Maas universes.
