Paladin's Grace by T. Kingfisher (Part 1) | 382.1 May 19, 2025

Show notes

Hey HBs! Remember how we said we weren't going to do book 1 in this series? We fibbed! After a series of unfortunate events, we needed to do a book we both recently read (and bonus: loved!). So! You get PALADIN'S GRACE by T. Kingfisher! Book one about a survivor perfume artisan and a big ol' sebastian hero... who knits! Y'all, Sabrina and her morals almost didn't make it.

Bonus Content: Mel's kids are shit at charades, Sabrina doesn't recognize non-marriage-romantic-relationship as valid and frowns upon any adult aerobics done for anything but procreation. Get with the program!

We're back with part 2 of PALADIN'S STRENGTH by T. Kingfisher. These mature characters are solving mysteries, saving nuns, and falling in love along the way!

Lady Loves:

Sabrina: don't let your imposter syndrome get you and push yourself to bask in the compliment! She was recently told that her coding "worked flawlessly" and she's been on a high ever since!

Mel: this might be obvious to some of you, but you can make ANYTHING that plugs in turn on and off on a timer! There are outlet add-ons and power strips that you can program to do it for you! You don't need a special timer version of each item! mind blown
