Romantasy Episode: Mood Reading, World Building, Book Publishing Cycles, Werewolf Romance Books, Fantasy World Maps & more!

Sippin’ on Spice Book Podcast Season 3 Episode 13

Grab your favorite drink and settle in, because this week on Sippin’ on Spice Book Podcast, we’re bringing the heat! We’re diving into why not every book villain deserves a redemption arc (yes, we’re looking right at you, Tamlin 👀). 

We also share our very strong thoughts on Powerless by Lauren Roberts and Spark of the Everflame.

We get real about why it’s nearly impossible to binge multiple fantasy romances back-to-back, confess our questionable geography skills, and talk about how current world events shape the media and books we gravitate toward. We also debate whether we should revisit books we didn’t connect with the first time — maybe it wasn’t the book, maybe it was just our mood (because, let’s be honest, we are mood readers).

Plus, we’re breaking down how publishing trends move in cycles — what’s hot today might cool off tomorrow — and we’re making our bold prediction for the next big thing: werewolf and shifter romances. (We’re completely obsessed.)

We also chat high-level — with a few spoilers — about From Blood and Ash and Zodiac Academy, and spill our takes on which book couples should (and definitely shouldn’t) end up together. All that and more in this spicy, unfiltered episode!
