Welcome to the Booked On Fantasy Podcast!

Hosted by best friends Addison and Lorraine, Booked On Fantasy is your go-to place for all things fantasy. We explore the magical worlds of books, shows, and movies. We dive DEEP! In each episode, we examine the plot, themes, characters, make predictions, and more. Together, we offer fresh perspectives, exciting discussions, and oftentimes hilarious reactions!

We are a spoiler-free podcast — which means we've never read the books we're discussing before. We have completed our coverage of Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros and are diving back into the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas with Empire of Storms. Plus, check out our new segment, Pag(e)ing the Past, where we revisit nostalgic reads from our past that helped shape us. The first series we’ll be covering in this segment is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
