The Lit Sisters are back with wild theories, spicy speculations, and an encyclopedia’s worth of mythology talk. Nicole and Marisa dive into love triangles (Elaine, Lucien, Azriel—pick a side!), suspicious fates, and whether Tamlin deserves a redemption arc (spoiler: it’s complicated). They also attempt to untangle the endless court drama, hypothesize about shadowy alliances, and wonder if THE MORRIGAN is hiding something big. Plus, they debate spicy book series, forgotten courts, and if more magic mean more drama.

The sisters dive into the chaos and romance of Nesta's finale, as she’s caught between axe-wielding brutes, mates that refuse to behave, and villainous monologues. From Nesta’s overly dramatic nightgown sacrifice (why, Nesta?) to Gwyn’s beast-attracting getaway, this episode has it all. Spoiler: The last boss isn’t just any old evil; it’s a power-hungry old crone who seriously miscalculates. It’s an adventure in every sense—and a test of both Nesta’s strength and her wardrobe choices.

Join Nicole and Marisa as they dive into Cassian’s questionable flirting techniques, Azriel’s awkward timing, and a cursed harp with the vibes of a creepy Disney ride.  Cassian tries (and fails) to be the knight in shining armor while Eris shoots his shot, and the gang makes friendship bracelets with a side of trauma bonding. This episode is equal parts chaos, sarcasm, and spice.
Ch 51-63

Thursday Oct 24, 2024

In this episode, the Lit Sisters dissect Cassian’s "diplomacy" skills (spoiler: he’s better with swords). Meanwhile, everyone’s reading smutty books, wielding suspiciously powerful weapons, and there’s some truly awkward tension when Azriel walks in on another not-so-subtle or romantic moment. Between Cassian getting flustered and the sisters giving their hot takes, it’s just another day of bat boys, wingmen, and magical mayhem. And yes, there’s a Kelpie. But we really wish there wasn’t.
Ch. 25-50

Thursday Oct 17, 2024

Nicole and Marisa are back at it with "A Court of Silver Flames." In between training fails and Valkyrie lore, they dive headfirst into the awkward sex tension that’s hotter than Cassian’s sneezing fits. Tune in for awkward flirting, questionable training techniques, and a house that's better at friendship than most people. It’s the messiest, funniest self-help journey you didn’t know you needed!

Thursday Oct 10, 2024

Nicole and Marisa kick off "A Court of Silver Flames" with a hearty serving of sass, hate-flirting, and plenty of eye-rolls at Nesta’s life choices. Watch Nesta fail miserably at yoga and stair climbing, while Cassian’s mind drifts straight into the gutter. It’s all sarcasm, sibling snark, and fiery back-and-forths as they navigate the ups and downs (mostly downs) of Nesta's journey.
 
Ch. 1-12

Join the Lit Sisters as they dive into A Court of Frost and Starlight, where the only thing frostier than the Night Court is Marissa’s feelings about Christmas shopping in fiction. Nicole tries to play peacemaker while Marisa channels her inner Scrooge. Expect sibling banter, sassy commentary, and heated debates over the importance of solstice decorations and magical menstruation (yes, really). It’s the ACOTAR holiday special no one asked for but can't stop laughing about!
