[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome to the Momson Reed podcast.
0:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm McKenzie and I'm Kaylee and today we're going to talk about the banker that is crowned me dead.
0:18
[SPEAKER_00]: It is all over the take talk.
0:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Rightfully so.
0:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, rightfully so.
0:22
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a short read and we literally read it and my mind is still.
0:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Really?
0:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I, yeah, with Blush.
0:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, very reading this book.
0:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I am going to read the second one.
0:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it just doology?
0:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a duality.
0:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Fantastic.
0:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So here I want to see us three dualities.
0:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, three dualities.
0:40
[SPEAKER_00]: This is according to TikTok, the Tamest duality that she has.
0:46
[SPEAKER_00]: While we're on this object.
0:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Because this is, if you read it, a dark fantasy romance.
0:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't understand
0:56
[SPEAKER_00]: What people define is dark because we're getting, I'm getting people sitting on ice.
1:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm getting maggots in the back of the throat.
1:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm getting ice cream with questionable substances in it.
1:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I...
1:07
[SPEAKER_00]: don't understand what dark means.
1:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I need a clear cut like fantasy worldly.
1:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Faye, words that come alive.
1:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I get that romance.
1:18
[SPEAKER_00]: There's love, dark.
1:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it nasty or is it just like cruiser or is it like a biker where they're like, I think it's just like questionable.
1:32
[SPEAKER_00]: If there is a questionable scene happening, they label it as dark, like, okay, because you read that dark romance with Hooked, Hooked, yeah.
1:43
[SPEAKER_00]: We do need a clear cut definition.
1:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I need something.
1:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I read pan, and the one was dark, but I didn't think it was dark.
1:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was just wrong.
1:52
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, yeah, yeah, yeah, I didn't think Hooked was like, like, they talked about killing people or whatever, but like,
1:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it wasn't, I mean, like morally questionable, but I mean, like, are we the problem?
2:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Are we just the ones that can't?
2:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Or like, are we just like,
2:07
[SPEAKER_00]: category that we need.
2:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I mean, I need someone to tell me the difference between like they're about to do freaky stuff versus like I'm gonna be talking about things that are going to make me vomit.
2:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, like am I the problem that I'm reading this book and I'm like, this is supposed to be a dark book, I'm like, and I'm like, I think this is a dark outside of the, the maggots situation.
2:31
[SPEAKER_00]: There was nothing else that was like a red flag to me.
2:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, there was multiple red flags, but I was here for it.
2:37
[SPEAKER_00]: He was literally a demon death.
2:40
[SPEAKER_00]: He was blonde to that to the very end.
2:41
[SPEAKER_00]: So by that point, I was like, oh, what?
2:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Even then it's like a very dark room.
2:46
[SPEAKER_00]: But then that was the fantasy part of it.
2:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
2:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
2:48
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm like, like a lie for being.
2:50
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a kind stalker.
2:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he was so nice stalker.
2:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I see no issues with that.
2:55
[SPEAKER_00]: That could actually have been a real life.
2:56
[SPEAKER_00]: That's my problem.
2:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Like,
2:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if that's what I have a problem with that, don't know, if he was nice and brought me trail mix, I don't think I'd have an issue it'd be fine, but I am Sophie cutting him with that meme and these people who are like, you need to read artwork, so I'm like, no.
3:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I don't, I have not wolfed by a paisley hook was probably the most like textbook in my head dark romance that I've read because it was very
3:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it there was a line like questionable thing like there was blurred lines, you know what I mean where I could see where I could make Darcy's yeah if it was dark But like at the same time you don't call thrillers dark and there's people being serial killers so I'm like I don't I don't know there were some things that you told me about in that book that were obviously blurring lines.
3:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
3:53
[SPEAKER_00]: concerns.
3:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
3:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that obviously.
3:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
3:55
[SPEAKER_00]: So I felt like that one was like rightfully so dark.
3:58
[SPEAKER_00]: But this one I would have called it more of a gothic fantasy romance than a dark fantasy romance.
4:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
4:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
4:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Because dark makes me think like, whoa, what's going to happen?
4:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Like Rachel Gillick's books are to me gothic fantasy by man.
4:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
4:13
[SPEAKER_00]: This one I would have
4:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, people say it's the lightest one of her three, I would have considered this one a gothic fantasy romance not a dark on that note.
4:23
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you rate it?
4:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Slowly because of the maggots, I took point by boy.
4:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the maggots did it.
4:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I was on a plane reading the first three chapters and like being pregnant.
4:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I can just like over imagine things.
4:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I do not normally.
4:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't, like, the bio, the liquids I can't, it was like, I was ill reading it, because I get past the first five, but then that scene happened with the king before he got better.
4:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah.
4:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, nope, the one that magnet hit her in the back of the throw about through my candle.
5:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I've seen a lot of people say that they DNF in the first like few chapters.
5:08
[SPEAKER_00]: 100% I get it, I get it, but like this is me telling you to push through those first five times.
5:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess it's like to show you, like, we'll like to show how qualified she is to do it with this king who was rotting.
5:22
[SPEAKER_00]: because physically rotting to me after the first few chapters, like it didn't get anymore.
5:29
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it was very, I mean, it was just crazy to me that that was what she was talking about and it was written so beautifully.
5:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like this was a high level of writing, like her language and the way she like,
5:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Strong words together like that's I mean that part I feel like was the fantasy part But she did a really good job of job of that and I was shocked because I was like, I'm worried about she Legitimately reminded me of like a more gruesome right?
5:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't get like like what's that?
5:59
[SPEAKER_00]: She writes very poetic.
6:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and it was so good.
6:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I love books written like that
6:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I literally sent a message to her email and was like, can you come on the podcast, please?
6:10
[SPEAKER_00]: We would love you on the podcast.
6:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Why did Ashley watch your fascination for maggots?
6:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was really disgusting.
6:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think about the diaper fail.
6:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was disgusting.
6:20
[SPEAKER_00]: That like, now I don't have a leaf stomach at all, but when the maggot hit the back of her throat, I...
6:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I gagged.
6:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I did.
6:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, that is absolutely.
6:30
[SPEAKER_00]: If I had a red on the first trauma sir, I'd have been still in.
6:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I've been sick of it all.
6:36
[SPEAKER_00]: But thankfully.
6:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Thankfully, thankfully you're out of that.
6:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, if you missed it last podcast, McKinsey is with child.
6:44
[SPEAKER_00]: It's bigger this time.
6:45
[SPEAKER_00]: It's bigger this time.
6:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's see.
6:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Bombay.
6:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I was looking on the back of the book on my dad and the first line literally makes so much sense now.
6:51
[SPEAKER_00]: What does he say?
6:52
[SPEAKER_00]: wed me bed me slit my throat.
7:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, that's the first one.
7:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't you love when all of that like finally connects?
7:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, oh, I love the, okay, the first one is good.
7:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, and not the first line of the book, but like on the back of the book.
7:21
[SPEAKER_00]: No, that's, wed me, bed me, sleep my throat.
7:24
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I love that.
7:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I forgot that.
7:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
7:27
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I have crown me yours in, what is it for me?
7:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Wedge you, bed you, slit your throat.
7:34
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I'm like, okay, we're going to have to get into theories at the end of this, because I genuinely, go to meet by the end was like, who do we love?
7:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, I also was Jordan Crone about in this book.
7:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't know what she cried about.
7:50
[SPEAKER_00]: What was she crying?
7:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I think more people are crying over crown me yours.
7:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it's valid.
7:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I personally think that I rated this book five stars, but I think it's going to be a six star series for me.
8:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I, like, I'm genuinely excited to read the next book and it's just a short.
8:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a six-door series for me.
8:10
[SPEAKER_00]: So I thought it was interesting that fail like this is one of those books that I feel like you kind of once you reread your like.
8:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Hmm.
8:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like there were signs.
8:23
[SPEAKER_00]: There were signs.
8:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I gave so many signs.
8:25
[SPEAKER_00]: This plot twist for me was very up there.
8:29
[SPEAKER_00]: What the plot twist were you talking about?
8:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Him being dead.
8:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
8:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I could have sworn you said that was like really early on, but then no, I okay.
8:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So me.
8:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Hi me.
8:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I somehow put this together.
8:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Where was it at?
8:45
[SPEAKER_00]: it was page 45.
8:46
[SPEAKER_00]: This is only what a 270 page book.
8:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so that's like pretty far into it.
8:52
[SPEAKER_00]: It says, the curtain flutters once, just enough for me to catch the dark shape of a sleeve inside.
8:59
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, it's bailed death question mark.
9:01
[SPEAKER_00]: How I got that.
9:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Can I read you what mine saying?
9:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Because this is the difference between me and Kaylee.
9:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Kaylee's like thinking with her brain.
9:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I am just like, but no, my brain did not.
9:14
[SPEAKER_00]: My brain switched back and forth.
9:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I put that down and then I was like, wait a second.
9:19
[SPEAKER_00]: No, because she got me.
9:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I got God.
9:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I was fully on that he is Kayle's brother.
9:28
[SPEAKER_00]: He's Kale's brother.
9:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
9:29
[SPEAKER_00]: He is supposed to be the rifle king.
9:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
9:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I was on that train.
9:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, there's no way this man is up.
9:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
9:36
[SPEAKER_00]: It was whenever he told the story of death, to the king.
9:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he, when Ville was talking about the story, I was like, how does he know the story so well?
9:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's very intriguing.
9:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
9:51
[SPEAKER_00]: That he knows the story so well.
9:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Meanwhile,
9:58
[SPEAKER_00]: This was around the part where we just met the king who was running, right?
10:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Veil was acting like the assistant to the king.
10:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
10:07
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, oh, is this beauty in the beast?
10:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I was like, oh, maybe he's going to turn into a human, nice human.
10:14
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I said, is Veil Lumiere?
10:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, that's not a clue.
10:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe he's like a lamp.
10:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Like this castle's going to come alive.
10:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
10:23
[SPEAKER_00]: He came with our pregnancy brain with a hundred percent.
10:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, wow, he's probably.
10:27
[SPEAKER_00]: But, I mean, if we want to dive in, I mean, obviously Lumiere was an inanimate object, right?
10:31
[SPEAKER_00]: We could, we could, we could, we could, we could stretch that a little bit to stretch that.
10:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't say it was an inanimate object, but he was not of this world.
10:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Did the King kill all the way?
10:42
[SPEAKER_00]: By the time we saw him at the end, like, I don't think I saw that.
10:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the route was, like, mostly gone, yeah, because the crown healed him.
10:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because he was taking care of himself.
10:51
[SPEAKER_00]: By the end.
10:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
10:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I think after, like, the salt thing, the salt mine, okay, she said his wounds were just like scars.
10:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, that's what I was thinking.
11:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So can she not put her brother in the wall?
11:05
[SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't have the crown.
11:06
[SPEAKER_00]: To like, oh, true.
11:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, that's right.
11:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think the crown did most of the work, but he wasn't making it worse.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: The crown could actually heal something.
11:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
11:16
[SPEAKER_00]: But I, I really genuinely don't know how I got that he was death from that I think it was just like a thing that a thought that went through my brain so I wrote it down, you know, and
11:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I was just really confused.
11:31
[SPEAKER_00]: That's crazy.
11:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Then in chapter eight, page 60, I said, it says trust one I say that I know how difficult it is to look at something so revolting and still find beauty within.
11:40
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, so it's hate the king.
11:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, like, I don't, I don't understand.
11:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm genuinely confused.
11:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, there was so much being figured out between, you have,
11:54
[SPEAKER_00]: hurt like because we're looking at it from her point of view and so we think that King is one person but he's he's actually someone else but who is also someone else because we think he's doing something dirty and like being sneaky when the whole time veil is the one who is working behind the scenes and it's crazy to me like how so unreliable she was as an
12:24
[SPEAKER_00]: and I know who interested in it I believe too, because at one point when Kale was being rude or like when he came home drunk and stuff, I'm like so it's he the guy, yeah, we're gonna switch and like Vale actually be the good guy, he's just more like questionable and then
12:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Because, okay, what this book gave to me, and I might be completely off-base here.
12:49
[SPEAKER_00]: This book gave me what I wanted from the powerless trilogy.
12:56
[SPEAKER_00]: like with the brother dynamic yeah I thought we were going to have that kind of situation where we have kids she like did not feel anything for kale yeah okay here's powerless spoilers if you have not read it yet here's your warning with kit well broke faithful faith whatever that blast book is fearless fearless yeah
13:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, it with kid.
13:21
[SPEAKER_00]: He was great the whole time and he was supposed to be the good king and all that and then he ended up being bad.
13:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So I've been burned one to many times to where I would rather you show me, all right, that you are morally great and morally questionable and I just take that for what it is.
13:36
[SPEAKER_00]: rather than you be kind and then show up as more like questionable.
13:39
[SPEAKER_00]: But no, Kail in the end was like good all the way through.
13:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
13:44
[SPEAKER_00]: And that shocked me a little bit.
13:46
[SPEAKER_00]: But there were instances when he put a tans on her at the greenhouse and things that you were like crap.
13:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe Vail is the one that we trust.
13:54
[SPEAKER_00]: It was things like that that I was like, what the heck?
13:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm getting a lip lash because especially she went up to Vail because she had kissed Kail.
14:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, then immediately after that was when kill last shout, so you're like, oh, okay, maybe he is the bad guy, and then he's like, what do you mean he's He can we talk about veil for a second?
14:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, he was wrong Because how are you gonna be like you need to go find Kill and try to seduce him.
14:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's crazy, but then he'd be like
14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: if you want to test Brian.
14:32
[SPEAKER_00]: You know where to find me on my room.
14:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Literally.
14:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry, sir.
14:37
[SPEAKER_00]: You weren't deaf.
14:38
[SPEAKER_00]: That's your brother.
14:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Or is that we live?
14:40
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
14:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Which that should have been a red flag.
14:42
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I was going to do.
14:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I was willing to do that.
14:45
[SPEAKER_00]: That should have been a red flag.
14:46
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was, I mean, we knew more of a gray.
14:49
[SPEAKER_00]: So he might not have cared true.
14:51
[SPEAKER_00]: He might not have cared.
14:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, I'm genuinely,
14:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Unsure of what's happening next.
14:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I do like no idea what's happening.
14:59
[SPEAKER_00]: These are some of my favorite This is one of my favorite lines If the library held and answered to that don't you think I would have found it by now?
15:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Mink and stare straight at a thing and still not see it.
15:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, girl Girl Clocked out on a shirt because my husband is the actual worst when it comes to looking for stuff.
15:23
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved that so much
15:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree with that so much.
15:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I also loved.
15:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't planning on throwing myself onto the floor.
15:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I do that only for death and spilled soup.
15:34
[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, okay, I'm sorry.
15:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to do that for you.
15:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I do have another question.
15:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Did we ever find out who the girl that they were hiding was?
15:44
[SPEAKER_00]: that Kail was hiding that he could break the curse they thought it was like a cousin but they kind of like shrugged it off as like yeah so nobody I don't know if that has any like if that's going to come in because I don't feel like that was fully resolved and I could be totally off base saying that is going to come back it was just if it does it though that's a very odd thing to just throw in there and then not have any result from it.
16:08
[SPEAKER_00]: right.
16:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the fact that she's running to veil and telling him all the things, back how says, and then he's like, did you tell him?
16:20
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's like, no, no, I didn't.
16:25
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he's like, do you, do you like him?
16:29
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's like, no, I don't.
16:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he's like,
16:38
[SPEAKER_00]: put moonlight on it while they're doing the need she freaking pulls the car was on such a wild time and I just picture like the serial or something yes literally she is climbing the serial is what she's done literally and and that part
17:01
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I imagine the surreal doing.
17:04
[SPEAKER_00]: That part just got me and I was like, I was like, I was like, oh, get off of him.
17:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I literally was so concerned for her in that moment.
17:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that said you probably should have done it before I don't know.
17:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, I mean, he was kind of aggressive.
17:15
[SPEAKER_00]: He was kind of aggressive.
17:16
[SPEAKER_00]: He was kind of aggressive.
17:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, um, you should not be aggressive for you to not be a real person.
17:21
[SPEAKER_00]: He was slightly aggressive, but then death has never taken a lover like you were the first lover.
17:27
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's not.
17:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I know how.
17:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I know how to break the curse now.
17:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And then she goes in there I think she's about to die and he puts the crown on top of her head and she slits his throat.
17:38
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like,
17:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, wow, I was like, I know that girl didn't just do that.
17:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Remove, yes, she does.
17:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So we like, we know Kail is gone.
17:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so like we in the book.
17:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Kail is a large queen.
17:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Kail is dead and Bail is pissed.
17:56
[SPEAKER_00]: So what happens to him though if the curse is broken?
17:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know because you know what I'm still really about.
18:03
[SPEAKER_00]: The crown you or wed you, wed you, slit your throat.
18:11
[SPEAKER_00]: that is what I'm still really about.
18:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I have absolutely no idea where book to is going.
18:17
[SPEAKER_00]: But I did when I was researching stuff on like TikTok and whatnot.
18:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't see any spoilers for go too, thank goodness.
18:23
[SPEAKER_00]: But I did see that the mom and the brother, it is very important that they came to the castle.
18:29
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, I'm interesting.
18:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
18:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I wonder why?
18:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, because what would that serve a purpose for?
18:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
18:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what purpose I would serve.
18:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Because what is she going to do now that she's queen?
18:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
18:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they going to try and get rid of the rod?
18:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Is the rock gone now that she's queen?
18:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Or is it not gone yet until she kills him because she didn't let him.
18:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Did death create the rod?
18:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I think so.
19:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Because if the crown is not fed, then rod starts.
19:03
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, because I mean, the curse is broken on.
19:06
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't have to happen now that they figured out a way to break it.
19:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what's happening in book two.
19:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what's happening in book two.
19:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, it's happening in book one anymore.
19:21
[SPEAKER_00]: This was the shortest book, but there was so much packed into it.
19:25
[SPEAKER_00]: There was so much, it was like a quick read, but there was so much in it.
19:30
[SPEAKER_00]: From a moment one, like the very first moment, it was like bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam.
19:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I saw this comment that said, okay, but Vale is such a clever name because it's the Vale between life and death.
19:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't you hate crap like that?
19:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on, let's go.
19:46
[SPEAKER_00]: In your face.
19:48
[SPEAKER_00]: the whole time.
19:50
[SPEAKER_00]: They hold time.
19:50
[SPEAKER_00]: The whole time.
19:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And then someone was like, bail and kale.
19:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
19:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Why are they so close?
19:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they so similar?
19:59
[SPEAKER_00]: And someone had said, I think it was intentional to sell the their brothers thing.
20:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I was fully convinced that I thought the plot was like that their brother right fully convinced they were Brothers and that was not plot twist that was not the plot twist.
20:16
[SPEAKER_00]: No, but I I have definitely seen that Book two Break sure hard and shatters it and you will ball your scary let us carry I'm excited though.
20:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I I I I think I need to read it soon though before for good
20:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I need to read it soon because I leave for Disney on Sunday, and I was thinking about reading it on the way to Disney, but I don't want to be sobbing in the car.
20:43
[SPEAKER_00]: No, that's a vibe killing.
20:44
[SPEAKER_00]: That is a vibe killing.
20:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to the happiest place on earth, like broken hearted.
20:48
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you could be renewed there.
20:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So maybe I need to read it.
20:55
[SPEAKER_00]: now.
20:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
20:56
[SPEAKER_00]: How many pages is it?
20:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's 270 pages again like the same thing.
21:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think I need to read it now that way I can be depressed and then cheer up by the time it's time to leave for Disney.
21:07
[SPEAKER_00]: It's what I need to do.
21:09
[SPEAKER_00]: No 100% especially if it's that quick you'll finish it.
21:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
21:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
21:13
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to tell them our next month's bookpake.

21:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm, we love you, Rachel, but please don't do us dirty.

21:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
21:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
21:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It is Jovey's story.
21:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
21:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't understand why so many people have the NF like the other.
21:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I need to know what comes after that.
21:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
21:58
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, like I need to finish it so that I know.

[SPEAKER_00]: It was so staged.
26:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And it wasn't your typical cowboy romance.

[SPEAKER_00]: They all leave on solid fingers of a cliffhanger.
26:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I see that hair in your mouth.
