  [SPEAKER_02]: I obsessed with this book and it is up there with Julie Libby is right now.

• 5:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: It is up there with one of the best fall books.

• 5:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and not gay.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: But this one has substance and it is good.
• 5:50
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm obsessed and it's going to be I'm sad I kind of sad I read this first because it's going to be like all other fall books I read to this one are going to be compared to this one.

  [SPEAKER_01]: It might be um, well, I also just- I'm not the return it.

  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I will say that I in another book club like with Megan and Madison and them, we did midnight sun.
• 7:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was so bad.
• 7:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: I did after.
• 7:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 7:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I genuinely can't wait because I want to tell you that.
• 7:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: It had my heart and soul in high school.

  [SPEAKER_01]: I was saying, I literally sent you the picture.
• 7:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I need to send me a picture.
• 7:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I can add it to the phone number.
• 7:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I need to ask Megan if she has a might.
• 7:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: We went to hot topic.
• 7:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
• 7:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I bought the t-shirts and wore them to the midnight premiere.
• 7:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I made mine handmade apple t-shirts.
• 7:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: We were going to hot topic because we were like team Edward.
• 7:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you know, you know, 2008 to the amount of kids that I have coming in the classroom now wearing twilight shirts.
• 8:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm always like team Jacob or team Edward because that'll determine if I like you and they're like team Edward.
• 8:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, okay, then we're fine.
• 8:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're friends.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: We're friends.
• 8:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: I need to buy a new Twilight shirt.
• 8:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm a target, did I really, we need to come for the bond?
• 8:21
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
• 8:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just wanted to like immerse read this, they're like, I want to read it and listen to it at the same time.
• 8:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think I'm, I need to physically see the words on the page, so I can cringe.
• 8:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: You know, like, I want your present, but I want to hear someone tell me, like, this is the skin of a killer better.
• 8:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I want to hear that.
• 8:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ah, I want to hear it.
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so then I and tell them, oh, I got the lamb tattooed.
• 8:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you, if I had free will, free will existed when I was an Elevator or middle school in high school, that would have been tattooed across my life.
• 8:52
  [SPEAKER_02]: I legitimately think I used to write it on everything.
• 8:56
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think I cried reading that.
• 8:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, wow, this is just moving.
• 9:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's like, oh, this is true, well I literally have read this series through probably six times back in the day, and I watch it, I'm not, I watch it once a year, I do watch it once a year, whenever it starts feeling a little how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how a how
• 9:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so I, if you have not added our fable, the link is somewhere in here, very, very close by in the description.
• 9:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: Please go at it.
• 9:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: So we can enter and change together.
• 9:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to hear everyone's thoughts about everything.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Twilight, the adult version.
• 9:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: Like, not the adult version, but as an adult.
• 9:52
  [SPEAKER_02]: As an adult.
• 9:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: Not the adult version.
• 9:54
  [SPEAKER_02]: That would be right.
• 9:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: That would not be okay.
• 10:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: Anyways, go do that now.
• 10:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: So we can talk about it.
• 10:03
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's gonna be so good.
• 10:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Next month.
• 10:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be so good.
• 10:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait.
• 10:09
  [SPEAKER_02]: All right, so now on to a light wheeler.
• 10:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: What did you rate it?
• 10:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I've been throwing stars all in a vice-business lately.
• 10:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: If I'm Bobbin with it, you're getting five stars.
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: If I vibe for a 90% of it, you're getting four.
• 10:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: But
• 10:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: And like when I finished reading it I was like oh my god I love this book.
• 10:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like I usually do it based off of the feeling that I have as soon as I finished reading it and it was very up there for me even though it took me a minute to get into it.
• 10:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think it's because I didn't remember saying things and I that was obviously our part like we could have fixed that, but
• 10:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: There was also such a huge time job.
• 10:52
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 10:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I gave it a four.
• 10:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: But that's because nothing is going to top the way a metal singer made me feel.
• 11:01
  [SPEAKER_02]: You know what I mean?
• 11:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: Metal singer to make it was safe to ours.
• 11:05
  [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, and I did not get the same feeling from like, we'll, I still enjoyed it four stars as fantastic, but did it make me feel the same way.
• 11:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: I felt when I read Metal Slinger now.
• 11:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: It did.
• 11:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, I feel like it gave the same feeling that Iron Flame to a fourth wing did, like, yes, fourth wing.
• 11:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
• 11:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Took my breath away.
• 11:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Iron Flame was like crap.
• 11:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: And it was good.
• 11:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I'm going to love book three hundred percent.
• 11:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to love her.
• 11:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: So, Siri, it's just it to me, even though it is still good.
• 11:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think Rachel Schneider could write anything bad.
• 11:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: No.
• 11:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: To me, it's like second book syndrome.
• 11:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, like when you write a
• 11:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: She didn't have a reason to do any of that in her second book, which is expected, but like that just made it in the first one.
• 12:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and I think that's just expected.
• 12:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I don't think people think that through when they're like, oh, I got to hate this book.
• 12:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's not as good as metal singer.
• 12:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think it's not meant to be as good as metal singer.
• 12:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's meant to be a continuation of the story.
• 12:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so, right.
• 12:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think that's what draws us into the series that I agree with your fourth wing.
• 12:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: I plan cuz fourth wing six stars I plan four stars literally like on a storm catch it.
• 12:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: I've been on it five stars.
• 12:27
  [SPEAKER_02]: You know what I mean?
• 12:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right, so I just for like that's just that that's just how it is following how it should go But it does what it needs to do to get you into the series right because then like if you look at like
• 12:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: powerless fearless or reckless and then fearless, like it was like, yes, yes, and then no, yeah, which I would rather go, yes, and yes, right, then end on a bad net, honestly, because that may just be the end of it.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's how much I hate freaking fearlessly right now.
• 12:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I am curious, because they call this a doology like the fire
• 13:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, because it's it's the end of Jovian acre story.
• 13:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's very similar to what chorus abroad bent room with a servant and how she should treat it.
• 13:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: Ashes in the star crocheting, that is a completed duality, but then the actual story one came to use.
• 13:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, with different characters, but set in the same.
• 13:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so I'm curious, but like
• 13:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Isn't this all considered the crowns of Nyxido?
• 13:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and I think it's all going to be considered the crown metal series.
• 13:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that says, okay.
• 13:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that has a separate name.
• 13:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Shadowborn duet.
• 13:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then the crowns of Nyxido.
• 13:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know.
• 13:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's the one that goes with it.
• 13:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I really put it beside it.
• 13:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: Because it's the only one that um, crowns of Nyxido, the Nyxido one, do it.
• 13:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 13:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: So she has a name for the series and then in the duet.
• 13:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's the nightborne duet.
• 13:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: The other one was the shadowborne, but it's the Nyaxia series.
• 14:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 14:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: This one was just like the fire in metal.
• 14:04
  [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, hold on.
• 14:05
  [SPEAKER_02]: Is it kind of like what L. J. Andrews wrote then?
• 14:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: With, um, mystief.
• 14:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: Mm.
• 14:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: And that's the ever queen in the mystief.
• 14:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe but aren't there five books in this?
• 14:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe.
• 14:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think it's longer.
• 14:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm just curious, like, what is going to be called like the whole like the because it's not fire in metal because that's her that's jimmy and acre.
• 14:29
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
• 14:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: That I'm I'm very curious to know that as well.
• 14:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe when we can get her back on the pot will ask her what if she can even tell.
• 14:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, that's true.
• 14:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
• 14:41
  [SPEAKER_02]: How do you feel about the time jump?
• 14:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: I know that you want to.
• 14:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, how about that.
• 14:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I.
• 14:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have two-sided feelings, like one, we miss out on four years.
• 14:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so understanding the world in which it was working, like she took over as Queen, we completely miss that.
• 15:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: She gave acre at chance, which we saw in that letter.
• 15:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then she denied him like that letter thankfully that letter existed, but still like it took me a minute to understand what was happening.
• 15:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because I was like, what do you mean?
• 15:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's been four years.
• 15:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: But also like, I don't like when all of that time is talked about in a book.
• 15:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 15:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like if nothing really happened, I don't want to read about it.
• 15:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think it could have
• 15:37
  [SPEAKER_02]: preview chapter or something like semi-explained what happened during those four years.
• 15:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Could you kind of had to piece it together?
• 15:45
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 15:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: Or like, but I don't think it was enough to be like an novella, but I think like a little backstory to the previous four years would have helped immensely with people like what's like happening a book with the war.
• 15:59
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
• 16:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like Gordon, you know, I hate Warren
• 16:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: what has been happening with the work is I was like when you start talking about alliances and he's having to go to melee like that was kind of hard to keep up with from a okay like what's been happening and where are we at right now in perspective
• 16:19
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.
• 16:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, do I think they needed the four-year time jump?
• 16:24
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, but I think it could have benefited from a little bit of a backstory.
• 16:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's interesting that it's like four years, like that's very specific.
• 16:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is very, that's a really long time.
• 16:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, especially for a Jovenian Acre to have been separated that long.
• 16:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god, I am so pissed that he got married.
• 16:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: That shocked me.
• 16:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I, I heard it is said, yeah, he actually has a wife to go back to I said,
• 16:49
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry, what?
• 16:50
  [SPEAKER_02]: Is it a rewind?
• 16:51
  [SPEAKER_02]: When I read that, I was like, I know he didn't.
• 16:54
  [SPEAKER_02]: I know.
• 16:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: Ah, no.
• 16:56
  [SPEAKER_02]: No.
• 16:57
  [SPEAKER_02]: And she got me, because I was like, girl.
• 16:59
  [SPEAKER_02]: And not hopefully did he take away.
• 17:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: When, through the bond, Javi was there, and he started, yes, thank you to her.
• 17:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: That blew my mind.
• 17:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, that savage.
• 17:12
  [SPEAKER_02]: The accurate was kind of a douche canoe in this book.
• 17:15
  [SPEAKER_02]: A little bit.
• 17:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: She also pulled the greatest plot twist.
• 17:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: on.
• 17:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but you've had four years to get over it.
• 17:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now, that happened almost immediately, like after they separated, true.
• 17:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: The wedding night happened.
• 17:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then it was like a few years later, that they were talking about this because he said that he had not touched her sense.
• 17:37
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, true.
• 17:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, valid because she did being what's his name.
• 17:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Frederick or something, Frederick, that also, what did he tell you I was like, what's happening?
• 17:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: What's happening?
• 17:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I knew it.
• 17:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I said, wait.
• 17:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: This could not be.
• 17:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was almost ill. And then the end, like he came in and I said, I can't remember what he was bad for him in it.
• 17:59
  [SPEAKER_02]: Like I did do.
• 18:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 18:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, I drink 100%.
• 18:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: But then I was really funny.
• 18:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: That he worked with like her the whole time.
• 18:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: I was like, that's actually really funny.
• 18:08
  [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
• 18:09
  [SPEAKER_02]: And she.
• 18:10
  [SPEAKER_02]: And he saw, I'm back full, sorry, guys.
• 18:12
  [SPEAKER_02]: And he saw them doing the nasty.
• 18:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: Well, he like encouraged it.
• 18:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, sir, this is crazy.
• 18:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: How did he not want to kill Frederick?
• 18:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
• 18:26
  [SPEAKER_02]: But also, okay, this dream walking scenario is kind of what I hope we get hundreds of years.
• 18:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: If Zayden is doing his meal in era, there has to be some sort of communication between them.
• 18:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: has to be.
• 18:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: There has to be something.
• 18:50
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 18:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, unless we're not going to get nothing, between Zated and Violet.
• 18:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, I think we'll get something.
• 18:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: But I also kind of loved that those crystals that she wore like suppressed.
• 19:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I like that.
• 19:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: But he kept like grinding crystals to some acid and get in there.
• 19:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like that.
• 19:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought that the whole dream situation was
• 19:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: like happened in that like I think it was a really great way for them to be able to like communicate with each other and it not like interfere with what's happening.
• 19:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Also the part like with his bomb crazy.
• 19:26
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 19:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: Like, didn't we call that?
• 19:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like we called that in the last podcast.
• 19:33
  [SPEAKER_02]: Like with her, because she's the one back on, she was the lucky lady on a long haul.
• 19:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 19:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: We called that in the last podcast.
• 19:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think I remember that.
• 19:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like that was pretty obvious though, right.
• 19:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: She just showed up out of nowhere.
• 19:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 19:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do think, because Rachel will continuously got me with the like twists in the turns, like not major plot twists, but like twists and turns, like one, the fact that they killed acres father.
• 20:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, but also homeboys dad that was the King of the Aloha.
• 20:10
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes,
• 20:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Royce, Royce, Oh, I see.
• 20:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see.
• 20:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I am purely speculating.
• 20:47
  [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like Kai has been working in Angles since day one, since the beginning of metal slinger.
• 20:54
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so like in the next book, we are going to see it play out.
• 20:57
  [SPEAKER_02]: Because one, we all thought he was mind controlling Joby.
• 21:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and they still talked about that, like if they were manipulating their emotions.
• 21:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
• 21:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: and his father taught him to do that.
• 21:09
  [SPEAKER_02]: Is he the villain, is he the overarching villain?
• 21:11
  [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, in the full picture of that.
• 21:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: And now, at the end of the book, he's now mind controlling Aurora, because Aurora is supposed to be with Messer.
• 21:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, OK. That brings me to this.
• 21:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was reading this blog and I was talking about this girl's thoughts on it.
• 21:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: And she said,
• 21:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hmm, she said, I cannot believe we missed all of it, that them agonizing everyone another so Jovi and Acre, how Jovi came to power, what happened between Kai and Jovi, what happened between Messer and Aurora, and what's going on in Loha.
• 21:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: All of it glossed over for an entire book, just for them to negotiate what alliance, then go to the final fight.
• 21:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that was intentional.
• 21:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that this next book is Aurora and Messer's story.
• 22:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think we're going to get the, this is what's been happening in a law hall the whole time, and what had, what brings us up to the present with what's happening after the alliance, because after the war essentially like, you kind of like where do they go next other than reestablishing kingdoms and like bring in the law hall back, but like I think because once she got, I literally thought, Mr. it was dead, I was like Rachel, they had no way, there ain't no way, I don't have some problems.
• 22:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: but I think all of it is intentional because I think we're going to get a whole this is what's been going on during the time of the Jovi and Acres story.
• 22:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, because she has not the type of writer to leave massive plot holes.
• 22:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, she's not the type.
• 22:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So it was done
• 22:54
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, like I feel like we are getting just there side of the story.
• 23:01
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's kind of like like an unreliable memory.
• 23:03
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
• 23:03
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so we never saw like a chi side of the story or like a messer side of the story until the very end.
• 23:12
  [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
• 23:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because Jovi is was a horrible narrator, like not horrible, but she was unreliable.
• 23:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: The whole first book.
• 23:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
• 23:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so I feel like next book, like you said, we're going to get to see a lot of the plot holes.
• 23:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's when this book is like, I think that was intentional.
• 23:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think the purpose of this book was to show up, like, was to round out Joby and Acres story.
• 23:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: And we got so much of their love story in the first book that it would not have been necessary to give us all of those four years with just, because she'll tell, like, she told us, like, that's the end of their story.
• 23:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 23:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not the end of the story.
• 23:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was intentionally done to fast forward with what we saw with Jovian Acre to get the finishing out of what was happening, but also to set up what's coming into the next book.
• 23:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like it was like a true two second book like Bob.
• 24:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, and I am thrilled that it is,
• 24:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that the plot, like also that girl was complaining about how the plot was really fast-paced, but I was like, no, I think we needed that because there was so much building in that first book like setting us up for them being able to find and basically her take the throne.
• 24:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: So, Messer and Aurora are definitely gonna end up together.
• 24:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think so.
• 24:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: Are they a match?
• 24:35
  [SPEAKER_02]: Did you say that they were like a match?
• 24:37
  [SPEAKER_02]: Because I wonder if they have like that bond and he can like- Right.
• 24:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: Because don't they like share powers or something through a bond or like- Yeah.
• 24:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: They can do whatever they do.
• 24:46
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 24:47
  [SPEAKER_02]: So I wonder if that- because apparently Messer is like this all-powerful- Right.
• 24:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
• 24:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: Shifter.
• 24:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: I wonder if that's gonna come into play if they end up being like a match.
• 24:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do think I'd die like what you said about how Kai's been Manila yeah 100 but I didn't think about that.
• 25:05
  [SPEAKER_02]: Kai Because I was that villain did this kind of horror thing come from because Did Rindon not know did Rindon?
• 25:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Rinton's dad.
• 25:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Rinton's dad.
• 25:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
• 25:17
  [SPEAKER_02]: Rina's Kai's dad.
• 25:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
• 25:19
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, Rina's his dad.
• 25:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, okay, anyways.
• 25:22
  [SPEAKER_02]: So that was his name.
• 25:24
  [SPEAKER_02]: I was like trying to figure it out.
• 25:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, you're welcome.
• 25:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: So he's dead.
• 25:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, he was the son.
• 25:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: He was the son.
• 25:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: He was the son.
• 25:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: Which so was Edmund?
• 25:33
  [SPEAKER_02]: But I wonder if Kai's just been like, mastermind mind controlling everybody this whole time.
• 25:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: What if he all mastered Rina?
• 25:41
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, I mean, he killed him.
• 25:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: True.
• 25:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So he's early.
• 25:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I think that is like the ultimate villain he's going to be the one that story because like now Now Agres sister no
• 26:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: who's taking over, bow, bow is taking over the throne, right?
• 26:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's Eikersus, that is Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, Eikersus, E
• 26:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: And then Kai is over a lot, yes, and he is somehow influencing Aurora, yes.
• 26:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: which is so many questions.
• 26:43
  [SPEAKER_02]: We do have a lot of questions.
• 26:44
  [SPEAKER_02]: We need to run the pond.
• 26:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: We do need to run the pond, but I need to see her face when we talk about these things.
• 26:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Interior education.
• 26:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I need to be able to read her face.
• 26:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Interior education for sure.
• 26:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: I do think that, I don't know, but if he's already like,
• 26:59
  [SPEAKER_02]: in her brain.
• 27:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I mean, I guess if he wasn't her brain, then they could still be mates or matches, because Jovi and Acre became matches.
• 27:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: He could be overpowering the emotion.
• 27:11
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 27:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he's that powerful, I'm really curious from A.
• 27:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: messer helping her stay up like true because they need to establish the bond unless they already have and we just didn't see that in the four years and in the four years because then he could come through because that occurred saved jobie multiple times to the bond like fighting for her.
• 27:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Mm-hmm.
• 27:35
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's definitely like that.
• 27:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: Something's going to happen with that.
• 27:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, leave it to her to put the freaking out belong in here to show me the mess very dead.
• 27:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like she showed us that he went dead.
• 27:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
• 27:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, no, I'm not going to get to the last chapter in this be like, to be continued.
• 27:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: Questions that need answering Rachel.
• 27:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 28:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whatever it is, I think it was very intentional with the way that it was done.
• 28:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like it wasn't just like a, here I'm gonna rush this.
• 28:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: It took her a while to give this book out like, yeah.
• 28:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And here's a quick little story to finish up.
• 28:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Do I mean, I don't think that was the purpose of this.
• 28:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: I looked, I liked it overall, I liked it.
• 28:15
  [SPEAKER_02]: I think it was what I needed to be cracked, you know.
• 28:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't think Javi and I could store it needed to be drawn out anymore.
• 28:22
  [SPEAKER_02]: No, like, and I'm sure we'll see them in the next book.
• 28:26
  [SPEAKER_02]: 100% so it's fine.
• 28:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's time.
• 28:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: A green.
• 28:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: At least it's not like freaking rides to the starling and there's two completely new people in it's mostly from their point of view.
• 28:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's why I don't want to read that book.
• 28:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: At least we got it.
• 28:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: We needed to get.
• 28:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: We got what we wanted.
• 28:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 28:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm excited for the next book.
• 28:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so excited.
• 28:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait.
• 28:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whatever it may be called.
• 28:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have no idea.
• 28:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Literally we've been given nothing.
• 28:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Nothing.
• 28:52
  [SPEAKER_02]: Nothing.
• 28:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: They wish you must remember that.
• 28:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: Hey.
• 28:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's just time.
• 28:56
  [SPEAKER_02]: I need to know.
• 28:57
  [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
• 28:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: I need to know.
• 28:58
  [SPEAKER_02]: Give this a little bit in a side girl.
• 29:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: I bet she's already got a written too because this one has been written for a while and it shared a push it back because she became traditionally published.
• 29:09

  [SPEAKER_01]: I love the whole poly the whole purpose of the story and being on the boat, being on the yacht, being on a private charter.
• 32:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'd never read anything like that before, so I loved it.
• 32:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you were getting all the drama of the bachelor and all these people in their opinions and what's actually been twisted and love that, but for the longest time, I was like, ew, I can't stand that they used to be together.

  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, what is actually happening?
• 33:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't like them together.

  [SPEAKER_01]: Cause I don't like second chance.
• 33:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do not like second chance romance.
