Everything But the Book

WELCOME BACK, EVERYONE!Sarah and Lyss are here to slay the house down with their new season 4 opener. Get ready to talk motherhood, husbands, queer representation in media, hockey, economic distribution of wealth, and of course... books!Season 4 finds Sarah and Lyss discussing the hottest things in the book world - hockey romances, as well as revisiting the teen YA popular series from Cassandra Clare. Stay tuned, you don't want to miss what they have planned for this season of EBTB.

Well, hello there! The gals are back in town, have you missed us? What do you mean, no? Jeez, there's no need to be rude about it. We're talking new releases, old releases, things that grind our book gears, and expressing gratitude for this friendship built on a love for books. Strap in, folks.

On this episode we talk sound settings, special editions, Sarah tries to deny being a Swiftie, Lyss auditions for Dune 3 while speculating on K-Dramas, and eventually we start on one of the most popular releases of the year. New season, same socials! One of our favorite things about this show has been getting to connect with other readers. The easiest way to reach out to us is on our Instagram, our email, our website, Spotify Q&A, or on our Facebook!

We have covered some very popular reads on this show, but never one with quite so many accolades.  Winner of the Coretta Scott King-John Steptoe Award for New Talent (2021), The Ignyte Award for Best Young Adult Novel (2021), the NCETA Ragan-Rubin Award for Literary Achievement (2021), finalist for a dozen others, both an instant indie and NYT bestseller, our next book needs no introduction.  And that's just the beginning! The Legendborn Cycle currently has two published books (a third is planned, never fear) and we cover them both in today's episode. Has Tracy Deonn delivered the greatest YA Fantasy series of all time?  Let us know what you think of the show @everythingbutthebookpod on our socials and remember folks, the Line is Law! 

Listener warning; we laugh A LOT in this episode, to our headphone listeners we apologize deeply. We are going to resolve this next recording session. In the meantime...turn your volume down and LOL along with us.  Today the gals try to identify some of the most popular books on the scene by their lowest rated reviews. How many did you get?
