This Changes Every SJM World | Crescent City 71-80 Dec 15, 2025

Show notes

The Summit finally arrives—and everything unravels. In Chapters 71–80 of Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood, Bryce’s desperate attempt to save Hunt collides with long-buried lies, explosive lore reveals, and a public reckoning that quite literally plays out on a jumbotron. As Micah’s true role is exposed, the mystery of Luna’s Horn detonates into one of the biggest twists in the series, reframing Danika’s choices, the history of Parthos, and the power structures of Midgard itself. With portals, ancient libraries, and unmistakable crossover breadcrumbs on full display, these chapters don’t just change Crescent City—they reshape how every Sarah J. Maas world connects.

The Living Death, Liquid Night & A WHOLE LOT OF TEA | Crescent City 61–70 Dec 08, 2025

Show notes

In this week’s L.A.M.E. Book Club episode, we dive into Crescent City chapters 61–70 and… whew. Sarah J. Maas really said, “What if we emotionally demolish them mid-book?” We talk through Bryce’s brutal healing scene (aka peak “sweetheart” content from Hunt), the so-called Living Death punishment, and the absolutely unhinged reveal about Danika, synth, and what really happened to the pack. We also spiral about the Bone Quarter vs. the Sleeping City, rant about Hunt’s Very Poor Life Choices at the river drug deal, and scream when Fury “liquid night” Axstar steps out of the shadows. Plus, we get into our crack theories about Viktoria the wraith, the glass box at the bottom of the sea, and how book 4 might drag us all into river chaos. All of that, plus Rosie the Riveter pep talks, Michael Bay cutaways, liquid death tangents, and a Patreon afterparty where we match Disney movies to book recs (and yes, we have thoughts about Zootopia 2).

Cold Showers, Hot Theories & One Very Cursed Fish Tank | Crescent City 51–60 Dec 02, 2025

Show notes

We’re back in Lunathion with so many theories, besties. In this episode we’re breaking down Crescent City chapters 51–60: Bryce summoning Aidas (and that absolutely unhinged “let’s fight a demon with a demon” logic), the planet contraption in the Autumn King’s office and how it mirrors Rhys’ in ACOSF, the mystery of Hel as its own planet, and what “find what is in between” could actually mean. We deep dive the synth drug + obsidian salt, Danika’s secret crusade, Bryce’s scar and grief, Hunt’s most broken moment (shower scene!!), AND we spiral about Kelpies, nøkk folklore, Wicked parallels, Hadestown, and… shower temperatures. Stick around for our unhinged multiverse brain rot and let us know your theories in the comments. And if you want the after party and extra chaos, join us over on Patreon for bonus Crescent City content!

Is Truth-Teller THE Knife? Multiverse Theories & Otter Messengers | Crescent City 41-50 Nov 24, 2025

Show notes

In this episode, we’re diving into Crescent City chapters 41–50, and things get WILD. We’ve got Jelly Jubilee’s “toy box,” Kristallos demons in the sewers, Bryce and Hunt getting extra flirty (hi, almost-kiss ), and Sabine dropping a MASSIVE bombshell about Danika and the Horn. We also spiral into SJM multiverse theories (is Truth-Teller the missing knife?!), compare creepy sewer demons to the Valg, and absolutely lose our minds over the otter messenger. Plus: Nicholas Sparks x M. Night Shyamalan, the new Hunger Games trailer, Chad Michael Murray slander, and a little Thanksgiving sign-off. If you’re reading along, we won’t go past chapter 50, but we will reference ACOTAR and Throne of Glass, so tread carefully if you haven’t read those yet.

Is Hunt Destined to Die for Bryce? Oracle Receipts Only | Crescent City 31-40 Nov 17, 2025

Show notes

Bryce breaks the Oracle, Hunt gets called Orion, and somehow we still find time to drag Sabine and confess Melissa thought Egypt was in Europe. In this episode we’re diving into Crescent City chapters 31–40: Micah’s super sketch boss moves, Hunt’s doomed(?) Orion mythology parallels, the Oracle’s terrifying warning about Bryce, murder maps on the ley lines, Luna’s Horn theories, and why the Godslayer gun has us deeply concerned. We also spiral about human revolutionaries, fantasy husbands who don’t read fast enough, and how this all might tie into bigger SJM crossovers.

Did Sarah J. Maas Plan This All Along? | Crescent City 21–30 Nov 03, 2025

Show notes

We’re back and diving into Crescent City chapters 21–30, and honestly… we might’ve just connected half the SJM universe. From Luna’s Horn to the 8-pointed star, we’re unpacking every theory — including whether Luna might actually be Deanna (yes, we went there). It’s officially Christmas season in the L.A.M.E. Book Club household, Melissa’s officially on baby watch, and somehow we still managed to spiral into Rhun's genetics, horn lore, and starborn chaos. It’s fine. Everything’s fine. Stick around for the after-party on Patreon where we break down the Regretting You movie, talk about Dave Franco’s crying (or lack thereof), and announce our Fourth Wing coloring book giveaway.

Hot Angels, Witch Blood & Halloween Lore | Crescent City 11–20 Oct 27, 2025

Show notes

It’s our annual Halloween episode, which means chaos, costumes, and Crescent City theories collide. Melissa shows up as a Spy Kids thumb thumb, Ellie’s in full tinfoil-hat mode, and somehow we still manage to deep dive into SJM’s hottest angels, mysterious witch bloodlines, and all the lore that haunts the Crescent City universe. Come for the costume reveal, stay for the multiverse meltdown — because nothing says spooky season like realizing Micah might actually be too hot to trust.

Can You Love Jesus & Read Romantasy? Oct 06, 2025

Show notes

We’ve talked about books, tropes, and even smut before—but this week, we’re diving into something a little deeper. Can you love Jesus and read romantasy? 👀 We sat down with our friend Hailey (@haileyandherkindle) to talk about faith, fantasy, and how the two worlds overlap more than people think. From Narnia to ACOTAR, we’re unpacking how we balance our love for fantasy with our faith, what “discernment” actually looks like as readers, and how we navigate spicy books as Christian women. If you’ve ever wrestled with loving both God and your TBR… this episode is for you. 💫
