Ep. 50—House of Earth and Blood: Ew, Let's Never Mention Raw Fishing Ever Again!

This week, it's time to tackle the real monster on our TBR, the book that we've all been putting off reading for far too long. Yup, you guessed it, we're discussing HOUSE OF EARTH AND BLOOD or as S would call it "Emotional Damage!" Crescent City opens its doors to a brand-new world where shifters, faes, vampires and the like co-exist. But is it really all sunshine and roses or is something brewing in the dark underbelly of this metropolis? Perhaps things aren't quite as they seem, especially when rebellions of the past start encroaching on the present... Trigger warning: mentions of grief, survivor’s guilt, torture, forced amputation as punishment (wings), betrayal from a loved one, attempted suicide, and loss of loved ones Book of the week: House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City, #1) by Sarah J.

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.
