Katie: Y’all, I want to give a shout out today to Patty for raising her Girl right. Being the great parent she is, Patty has gotten Girl started down the Judy Blume path. Being the great kid she is, Girl has some thoughts and feelings she’d like to share. Patty: Because PattyKates wasn’t enough of a departure, we’ve decided to do a review à trois with my daughter – who henceforth shall be referred to as Girl – being very careful to maintain a level […]
Chakra here, chakra there, chakra everywhere
Patty: Confession Time: When I approached Katie with the idea of doing a joint review, it was supposed to be a one-time thing, my way of getting her to complete her Half-Cannonball as she had kind of been in a slump. We had a blast and have kept the momentum going (sorta) through shark shifters and carnies, lip biting and watersnakes, and 500 Shades of Crap. They haven’t all been bad, mind you, but somewhere along the line I started to wonder what the point […]
In which Patty and Katie are scarred for life.
Katistasia: Our slogan should be “Reading crap so you don’t have to since 2015.” Oh, friends. We did something SO STUPID. We decided to read EL James’ Grey. It seemed like an excellent opportunity for snark. Evidently I’ve subjected us to 450 pages of lip biting. Pattistasia: I read the acknowledgements and already hate you. Katistasia: Not nearly as much as I hate myself. I NEED TO GOUGE MY EYES OUT. Seriously though, how can you claim to have written this especially for the fans […]
Rhys Ford needs a hug. Patty and Katie are whimpering in the corner.
Katharine: Rhys Ford emailed me a couple of weeks ago and asked if Patty and I would be interested in reviewing an ARC of her new book, Ink and Shadows. We said, “OF COURSE.” Like there was a question there or something. Whatevs. She did warn us up front that it was a bit of a departure, but I wasn’t really expecting this. Patricia: OK. I really think Rhys Ford needs a hug. Katie, you are familiar with human feeling things, hug her. Please. Omg […]
My Demon Lover this ain’t. Thank goodness.
Pádraigín: Katie always starts these with ‘gentle reader’. I don’t know you nor do I care to speculate on your gentleness, so… HEY, YOU: This week we read You Slay Me by Katie MacAlister. Amazon’s freaky-deaky algorithm gremlins made it pop up on my So Like, Try This and See What Happens list and I am nothing if not adventurous. (I’m not) Cáitín: I ain’t gonna lie: those Irish names give me fits. None of them are pronounced anything like they’re spelled. Pádraigín: Weird, right? […]
It’s called jumping the shark for a reason
Paaatty: Alright. Lemme just start this off by saying I cannot take a shark shifter seriously when I keep pronouncing his name in my head as “Cohen-rad”. Like he’s my surfer accountant. Which begs the question: can I take a shark shifter seriously otherwise? No. Kaaatie: I was pronouncing it Kohen-raahd. Why do authors insist on using these odd spellings? I don’t understand. Out of curiosity, I googled sexy shark images. There is some truly disturbing shit out there. Paaatty: WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? […]
