Latest / Genre’d: A Book Podcast

Off Book - Elyse on Fantasy & The Books That Made Her a Reader

Katy interviews co-host and sister Elyse about her first love—fantasy. They talk origin stories (thanks, Oma!), gateway recs for brand-new readers, what to try if you’ve “read it all,” and why tropes like fake dating/marriage of convenience never get old.

Expect Tamora Pierce nostalgia, a passionate plea to (maybe) finish a certain unfinished trilogy, a defense of romance in high fantasy, and a spicy primer on… Omegaverse.

Highlights: what fantasy actually offers (social commentary in disguise), recs by age/experience level, and Elyse’s genre “cheat” list when she needs something lighter.
