Laura finally finished a book series and also *shockingly* adores another TV show based on a videogame. Hannah has been listening to lots of great, queer YA books, and while getting into her thoughts on a movie she watched recently she changed her opinion on it completely. Then Hannah and Laura immerse themselves into the middle of Harry Dresden's case and the shenanigans that occur in Jim Butcher's Storm Front.***This episode contains SPOILERS for Storm Front by Jim Butcher.***Plot section begins at: 45 min 50 secs.Apologies for some minor audio issues throughout the episode.Media Mentions:Storm Front by Jim ButcherThe Poppy War by R.F.

Hannah and Laura are finishing up discussion on Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn by chatting about the characters and themes in the book. This is their shortest season ever, but they loved their time here.

Hannah and Laura are finishing up Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn and cover the last third of the plot. They are doing their best to keep up with this book, however, they both remember a classic Patricia moment. But before they dive into Bloodmarked, a book in which they hope the characters remain single,  Laura shares about a book that she loved that features one of her new favorite fantasy creatures and Hannah nearly hyperventilates in joy over some YA books that she read recently. Hannah also watched too many(?) episodes of a show that Laura's parents (probably) love.***This episode contains SPOILERS for Legendborn and Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn.

Hannah and Laura chat about Miley Cyrus, great audiobook narrations, casting popular actors in movies too much, and revisiting a favorite series via novellas within the same world. Then they cover chapters 20 through 40 of Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn.

Laura has been sobbing her way through a new favorite TV show, and apparently also not listening to Hannah when she tells her how many chapters to read of the book we are covering.  Hannah has been a little bummed out by a show that she's been rewatching, but she really enjoyed working on a puzzle recently!  Laura and Hannah are also unsure on nicknames and having several miscommunications, but they both agree that they LOVE Legendborn! ****Spoilers for Legendborn begin at 31 min 25 secs.

Hannah and Laura are trying to mend their broken hearts, and they don't know where to start.  Jade Legacy has wrecked them, but they try to work through all their feelings in this discussion of the book, its characters, and themes.  Also, Laura read a very anticipated book that really made her think a lot about internet presence and critiquing books/media.  Hannah was recently on vacation which allowed her more time to read some books she had started but not finished, and also reveals that she is an expert in a very specific topic....the movie Anastasia.Discussion of Jade Legacy begins at 22m36s. CW for this section of the episode: death; racism; violence; guns; drug use; abuse; pregnancy; sexual abuse; blood; suicide; domestic abuse; medicine/medical issues; chronic illness; kidnapping; bombingMedia Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeJade War by Fonda LeeJade City by Fonda LeeUntethered Sky by Fonda LeeChildren of Ruin by Adrian TchiakovskyYellowface by R.F.

Hannah and Laura have been personally victimized by Fonda Lee's book Jade Legacy. It's made them cry so many tears, especially during this final section of the plot.

Hannah is unwell. Laura is crushed. You guessed it! They're reading Jade Legacy by Fonda Lee! This week they cover the first third of the plot and groan a lot over a certain character's love life. They also chat about some sci-fi/manga that Laura has been reading, bookstagram darlings, and a psychological book that Hannah loved!TW for the plot section of the episode: violence; sexual assault; racism; war; drug useApologies for some breaks in sound on Laura's end.

Hannah and Laura just talked recently, so they didn't have much to talk about in the front half of the episode, but still managed to go off on some tangents. In the second portion of the episode, they finish up their discussion of the characters and themes in Fonda Lee's second book in The Green Bone saga, Jade War.Discussion of Jade War starts at 35:01.**Note** This episode was previously recorded. We stand in solidarity with the WGA and SAG-AFTRA. Moving forward, we will not be discussing TV/Movie related content in the beginning portion of our episodes until a fair agreement is reached.Media Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeJade War by Fonda LeeJade Legacy by Fonda LeeUntethered Sky by Fonda LeeChildren of Ruin by Adrian TchaikovskyGoodnight Pun Pun by Inio AsanoClaim to Fame---HuluLove Is Blind---NetflixSFF Addicts podcastR.R.

Hannah and Laura have gotten a little too comfortable while reading Jade War and Fonda Lee is maniacally laughing at them.  Probably.  They also talk about an awesome graphic novel series, a cute movie adaptation, and think they deserve Book-IT pizzas for books they are reading for the podcast. Hannah and Laura also want you to check out Indie Intermission 4 and support indie authors!TW for the plot section of this episode: violence; suicide; death; abuse; drug usePlot section begins at 25:30.Media Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeJade War by Fonda LeeJade Legacy by Fonda LeeNimona---NetflixNimona by ND StevensonLumberjanes by ND Stevenson, Grace Ellis, Shannon Watters, Brooklyn Allen, Maarta Laiho, Aubrey AieseChildren of Time by Adrian TchaikovskyKilling Eve---NetflixYellowJackets---Paramount+Succession---HBOmaxThe Sopranos---HBOmaxThe Righteous Gemstones---HBOmaxA Goofy Movie---Disney+7th Heaven---HuluWhat We Do In The Shadows---HuluMonstress Vol. 7: Devourer by Marjorie Liu and Sana TakedaViviana Valentine Goes Up the River by Emily EdwardsBe sure to follow OWWR Pod!www.owwrpod.com Twitter: @OwwrPodBlueSky: @OwwrPodTikTok: @OwwrPodInstagram: @owwrpodThreads: @OwwrPodHive: @owwrpodSend us an email at: owwrpod@gmail.comCheck out OWWR Patreon: patreon.com/owwrpodOr join OWWR Discord!
