Speaker 1: Previously, I'm Relatables Baddies book Club. Is there one kiss
0:03
Speaker 1: in this book? Don't want to tell you just yes
0:09
Speaker 1: or no? Don't to tell you yes? Yeah, say yes?
0:10
Speaker 1: I find it doesn't give it? There is? There is
0:14
Speaker 1: the way? Or does I feel like actually kisses Dorian
0:20
Speaker 1: and Caro gets really jealous and does something dumb. I
0:25
Speaker 1: don't want to ruin it by like showing your facial dispressions.
0:27
Speaker 1: I'm just going to keep looking this way. Welcome to
0:30
Speaker 1: Relatables Baddies book Club, where we will embark on a
0:33
Speaker 1: journey reading some of the finest pieces of literature you
0:36
Speaker 1: have ever laid eyes or is if that's your preferred
0:38
Speaker 1: way to consume a book on Throne of Glass Chapters
0:43
Speaker 1: thirty through to forty, We're getting there. I have two
0:50
Speaker 1: things to say the start, Jake Yep. First one, what
0:56
Speaker 1: did you take from our studio last time we were
1:00
Speaker 1: recording some kind of uniform? Oh my pajamas? Yeah? Where
1:08
Speaker 1: are they? They're Actually you see his war right behind me? Yeah,
1:13
Speaker 1: right behind this wall. You're kidding, why don't you put
1:15
Speaker 1: him on? Mate? Because that just was like, I don't
1:19
Speaker 1: want to get in this spirit. This is an Akatar.
1:22
Speaker 1: It's still the same writer. Or give me some fucking
1:26
Speaker 1: pajamas that are thrown of glass and I'll wear them.
1:30
Speaker 1: I don't think they make them. There's not as much like, uh,
1:33
Speaker 1: what's it called fan? What's it called when they make
1:37
Speaker 1: like memorabilia. Maybe that's the word I was thinking, Yeah,
1:41
Speaker 1: merch merchandise, merchandise. Yeah, second one being is baddies. I
1:47
Speaker 1: think this is relatable. I've got really bad hay fever,
1:49
Speaker 1: some of a bit sniffley or you see some TP
1:51
Speaker 1: coming into shot when Jake's talking. I'm not sick, but yeah,
1:54
Speaker 1: it's the cold change in Australia. My nose hates itself.
1:57
Speaker 1: I'm really red in the nose too. You know why
2:00
Speaker 1: is it cold? It's freezing? Fuck. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.
2:07
Speaker 1: Not that bad, not that bad. No, it's not that
2:11
Speaker 1: cold whatever. Ad No, you're not bad. Talk. You didn't
2:18
Speaker 1: put your uniform on. I got something to say, Well,
2:20
Speaker 1: where's yours? I was seeing if you said that's too cold.
2:27
Speaker 1: So we're nearly done Throne of Glass, right, Obviously we
2:31
Speaker 1: will then go onto book two, and book two, remember
2:34
Speaker 1: about it, will be reading at the same time this one.
2:36
Speaker 1: I have finished what he's nearly done. But ah been
2:43
Speaker 1: reading Crescent City and fucking phenomenal. What the hell? No?
2:54
Speaker 1: Uh no, everyone's saying that about throwing a glass, like
2:57
Speaker 1: the whole series, not just this book, which is good.
2:59
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, though, why do we keep getting
3:04
Speaker 1: led astray? So here's the thing is, so no one
3:07
Speaker 1: has a bad thing to say about Akatar, at least
3:09
Speaker 1: I don't. I've never heard anyone say a bad thing,
3:11
Speaker 1: and in my opinion, Akatar was great. Yeah, then I'm
3:15
Speaker 1: talking to I'm also just going to stay on the
3:17
Speaker 1: Sarah J. Mass universe for this next bit rant or whatever.
3:20
Speaker 1: And then everyone's like, oh, you'll love Throne of Class.
3:24
Speaker 1: I've actually never heard anyone say a single bad thing
3:26
Speaker 1: about Thrown of Class either, and so I'm thinking, let's go.
3:29
Speaker 1: And then whenever people talk about Crescent City, they go
3:33
Speaker 1: you either, you know, like some people love it, some
3:35
Speaker 1: people find it to be a bit of a grind.
3:37
Speaker 1: Like so I was expecting just like to read it
3:40
Speaker 1: because I just wanted to read it, and it's going
3:42
Speaker 1: to be a grind, but like it's Sarah J. Mass,
3:46
Speaker 1: this shit fucking ectic far. Yeah, I feel like everyone
3:50
Speaker 1: was saying it's long. It's so long, like it's such
3:52
Speaker 1: a grind to get through, or yeah, if you like
3:55
Speaker 1: went into my brain, you know me quite well, would
3:58
Speaker 1: I say it's long or I like it? You? Oh,
4:05
Speaker 1: there is quite a few characters. But I have been
4:11
Speaker 1: listening to drama dramatized audio while reading. I'm sorted if
4:15
Speaker 1: there's a dramatized audio. But and so that's why I
4:17
Speaker 1: think you'll like it. Yeah, because it is dramatized audio
4:21
Speaker 1: is really good. When did Crescent City come out? I
4:25
Speaker 1: don't actually know. I don't know. I did look it
4:27
Speaker 1: up when I went to go by the first one.
4:30
Speaker 1: The first one's called House of Blood on Earth, I think.
4:33
Speaker 1: But okay, let me just give you a quick rundown
4:37
Speaker 1: of what it is. And this is just where I'm
4:39
Speaker 1: up to at least right. I'm not going to say
4:41
Speaker 1: anything about the book, but just like I'm going to
4:42
Speaker 1: get you to imagine what it's like. Okay, Yeah, A
4:45
Speaker 1: Throne of Glass came out in twenty twelve. House of
4:48
Speaker 1: Earth and Blood is that what it's called? Yeah, is
4:51
Speaker 1: twenty twenty so it's not that old. Nah. Interesting? Are
4:57
Speaker 1: you going to do your individual Cresident City book Club
5:00
Speaker 1: on Patreon. I actually am ready to record one Patreon
5:04
Speaker 1: exclusive ten chapters at a time, or just like your
5:07
Speaker 1: Bread's twenty two at the moment. Twenty two. Yeah, so
5:10
Speaker 1: lots happened to be fair, but right, So here's the
5:19
Speaker 1: best way I could get you to imagine it. Right,
5:21
Speaker 1: So imagine that Sydney as a city. Right, it's a
5:26
Speaker 1: big as city. Yeah, okay, So imagine Sydney, and imagine
5:30
Speaker 1: that Sydney is made up of not just humans, but
5:34
Speaker 1: also these other beings called vanir and the vein. The
5:40
Speaker 1: vanier come in separate forms. A vaneer could be a
5:45
Speaker 1: little like these little like tiny beings. Like you can
5:49
Speaker 1: get sprites, they're called sprites, and you can have a
5:52
Speaker 1: fire sprite, a water sprite and earth sprite, and they're
5:54
Speaker 1: just like these little tiny fuckers that kind of like
5:56
Speaker 1: float around and like are made of whatever element they are,
5:59
Speaker 1: and they're funny as fuck. And then you've got fay,
6:04
Speaker 1: You've got angels, you have shifters, you have like Demonica.
6:11
Speaker 1: There's like Hella races, like so many different races, right, Okay,
6:15
Speaker 1: and just think of it as a full functioning city
6:18
Speaker 1: like Sydney, but instead of just humans, there is all
6:22
Speaker 1: these other races and magic. Like it's a fully functioning
6:25
Speaker 1: city with a CBD. There's phones, they go on dates,
6:29
Speaker 1: they drink, they party, they nightclub like it's actually fun.
6:32
Speaker 1: They do drugs the it' snortlines and shit like it's
6:34
Speaker 1: actually fucking sick. What the hell? That's pretty cool. Then
6:38
Speaker 1: basically the gist of where I'm at, like, and this
6:41
Speaker 1: doesn't give anything away, Like the gist of the book
6:43
Speaker 1: is like there's a murder and it flips the main
6:47
Speaker 1: character's life sort of upside down, and now she just
6:52
Speaker 1: like gets to go solve this murder. It's like a
6:55
Speaker 1: murder mystery. It's a murder mystery. Bro, it's actually so cool.
6:59
Speaker 1: But she also has like cool background and it's actually
7:02
Speaker 1: the fucking sick thing. I don't know why people don't
7:03
Speaker 1: like it. Okay, yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Interesting. Hey,
7:06
Speaker 1: well maybe I'll listen to the book club on Patreon
7:08
Speaker 1: Nate night nine a month. I guarant I honestly would
7:11
Speaker 1: be fair. I'll probably edit it so like I'll skip
7:13
Speaker 1: through it so I'll be I can watch it. Then well,
7:15
Speaker 1: my plan is to just like be like very like
7:19
Speaker 1: start stop intro outro. Don't worry about it yet. Yeah, edits,
7:25
Speaker 1: I know what you're like. I'll make a clip out
7:26
Speaker 1: of it, but it's way worth it anywhay. So Cresncy
7:30
Speaker 1: is really good. I don't know if someone hasn't read it,
7:31
Speaker 1: I recommend it, Okay, interesting or maybe I'll listen to
7:34
Speaker 1: the dramatized audio as well. Maybe I'll do that one
7:38
Speaker 1: more thing before I get into it. I don't know
7:42
Speaker 1: if you can tell, but I always know that the
7:45
Speaker 1: cameras pick it up really well. Is if I've got
7:48
Speaker 1: bags under my eyes, ignore it. Well. You know I've
7:51
Speaker 1: been sleeping good dude. Last night for some reason, I
7:55
Speaker 1: wake up at like one thirty and I woke up,
8:01
Speaker 1: and quite often I get up straight away since I
8:03
Speaker 1: wake up to piss. But I sent you a video
8:05
Speaker 1: the other day. I tried it last night. I sleep
8:09
Speaker 1: on my side. This guy explains, right. He's like, so
8:12
Speaker 1: when you get up in the night, my biggest tip
8:15
Speaker 1: is people always think, well, I may as well pee.
8:17
Speaker 1: He's like, don't pee, right, He's like, if you just
8:20
Speaker 1: lay down on your back. Most of the time you've
8:21
Speaker 1: been sleeping on your slide and putting pressure on your bladder,
8:24
Speaker 1: lay on your back, and just set just like just
8:26
Speaker 1: like let yourself for back asleep and if you really
8:29
Speaker 1: really really need to peek, let's go peek whatever. And
8:31
Speaker 1: then he talks about like just different breathwork and stuff
8:33
Speaker 1: you can do if you're struggling. And so I lay
8:35
Speaker 1: on my back and I'm like, okay, I'll just like
8:37
Speaker 1: see if it goes away. And I actually just really
8:40
Speaker 1: needed to piss, and I was like, okay, well I'm
8:41
Speaker 1: gonna piss then, So I get up, I piss. I
8:44
Speaker 1: can see on the microwave it's one forty am, right,
8:47
Speaker 1: because I've actually been sleeping with my phone out of
8:49
Speaker 1: my room. Yeah, so it's one forty am. I go
8:52
Speaker 1: back into bed and I'm like, okay, cool, that's all right.
8:54
Speaker 1: Like I'm just laying there and I'm like, dang, dang,
8:58
Speaker 1: I really awake. I'm like, dang it. And so then
9:01
Speaker 1: I'm like, well he did. He gave a breathing technique, right,
9:04
Speaker 1: he gave his breathing technique. And I was like, look,
9:06
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not stressed. I'm going to fall
9:07
Speaker 1: back sleep, no problem. I start doing the breathing technique.
9:10
Speaker 1: This guy explains in the video, does nothing, absolutely nothing.
9:15
Speaker 1: I'm laying there. I'm laying there and I'm like, I've
9:18
Speaker 1: given this a good crack. I definitely think I gave
9:20
Speaker 1: it probably like a good forty five minutes to an
9:23
Speaker 1: hour of just like trying. And I was like, fuck me,
9:27
Speaker 1: I was like even trying to get my core temperature
9:28
Speaker 1: down by taking the blankets off. I was, have you
9:30
Speaker 1: beat up since two am? So then I start reading
9:34
Speaker 1: and I'm like, look, i'll read for a bit. Cool, cool,
9:37
Speaker 1: cool whatever I'm reading. And then I'm like, this isn't
9:41
Speaker 1: doing anything, and the book is just really good, so
9:44
Speaker 1: this is just not helping. And I go thinking in
9:47
Speaker 1: my head, I'm like, I bet you it's a bit
9:50
Speaker 1: like I bet you I've been awake for longer than
9:53
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, right, And so I was like, I've
9:57
Speaker 1: got a couple options here. You know, I've got to
10:00
Speaker 1: be at the studio at nine am, like be ready
10:03
Speaker 1: to record at nine am, and I know I have
10:05
Speaker 1: a meeting after it. But after that I planned to
10:08
Speaker 1: stay here and work. But I can work from home
10:11
Speaker 1: and have a nap if need be. So I got
10:13
Speaker 1: up at it was three point thirty. Your kid and
10:16
Speaker 1: I sat at my table and I worked on my
10:18
Speaker 1: computer until five, and then I went and just like
10:22
Speaker 1: fucking sat on the land and watched a show on
10:24
Speaker 1: my laptop. And I've been away since one forty. Mate,
10:28
Speaker 1: that guy's cursed the way, and I was like, whoa,
10:33
Speaker 1: I feel for you a way one forty that's crazy.
10:36
Speaker 1: And so here's the annoying thing, is like this never ever,
10:38
Speaker 1: it's like yesterday. That's like yesterday, dude, I haven't been
10:42
Speaker 1: I've been away for twenty fucking twenty four hours. I
10:45
Speaker 1: barely slept, to be fair, I went to I was
10:48
Speaker 1: probably asleep by nine point thirty. So I've had some sleep.
10:53
Speaker 1: That's better than nothing. And I just thought I wanted
10:55
Speaker 1: to say, I just want to preface. If you see
10:56
Speaker 1: bags in my eyes ignored, So still we're both struck.
10:58
Speaker 1: Then I've got a hay fever in your tie. How
11:00
Speaker 1: did you sleep last night? What did you do? Actually?
11:02
Speaker 1: Really well? The night prior is his book club. But
11:04
Speaker 1: the night prior I went to of Monsters and Men's
11:10
Speaker 1: How was it? It was good? I went to my brother. Yeah,
11:14
Speaker 1: so I got home at like one a ms as well,
11:17
Speaker 1: So like that was the night prior. So this night
11:19
Speaker 1: that just just went by, I slept great. Well, I
11:22
Speaker 1: mean I'm ready to go mate any more. I hope
11:27
Speaker 1: your memory is gonger because mine isn't. My memory memory
11:30
Speaker 1: just doesn't work the same as yours. Like it just
11:32
Speaker 1: like hops, skipping and jump and is done. Yours is
11:34
Speaker 1: like every little detail. How about you try and run
11:37
Speaker 1: the recap today and I'll just budd in probably a lot.
11:41
Speaker 1: I'll say one thing, no, no, no, no, no, fucking
11:44
Speaker 1: Dorian actually did this. Let's get into it. We're recapping
11:51
Speaker 1: every chapter of thoughts and theories to every clond twist
11:55
Speaker 1: will break it down for you. Wait before I you
12:01
Speaker 1: know what I did at five am as well as
12:02
Speaker 1: I dropped my phone in the toilet. That just added
12:04
Speaker 1: to my day. In the toilet in the water, Yeah,
12:08
Speaker 1: you're fucking lucky. You love that water. That's what you
12:13
Speaker 1: drink to do that. I have a little light in
12:19
Speaker 1: my toilet, but it ran out of charge, and so
12:21
Speaker 1: I went to do a WII and I was like, oh,
12:22
Speaker 1: even though I'm awake, I don't want to turn the
12:24
Speaker 1: light all the way on. So I had my phone
12:25
Speaker 1: and I was trying to like light it up like this,
12:27
Speaker 1: and I dropped it in the toilet, so I don't
12:29
Speaker 1: have a case on it right now, mate, you all
12:33
Speaker 1: live is a mayor. I'm going to leave that in
12:36
Speaker 1: all right, bad we left things off. It was chapter
12:39
Speaker 1: twenty nine going into thirty and there was just like
12:42
Speaker 1: a chapter of Selena and Dorian playing billards all that pool. Yeah,
12:48
Speaker 1: and they'll get him to know each other a little
12:50
Speaker 1: bit more. And I remember much rather dark was that
12:54
Speaker 1: Selena and Kale were going to get close, but the
12:57
Speaker 1: opposite happened. I hate this because, in like hindsight, I'm like,
13:01
Speaker 1: damn it, there were so many sides. No, no, I
13:05
Speaker 1: look you, there was science and there is right, and yeah,
13:10
Speaker 1: Kale is a man of duty and respect and honor. Yeah,
13:14
Speaker 1: don't forget that, Yeah, don't forget that. But we jump
13:19
Speaker 1: into let's do chapters thirty and thirty one, and I
13:22
Speaker 1: think after Billa's that wake up to, they wake up
13:25
Speaker 1: to another body is found and they get Remember keep
13:29
Speaker 1: in mind, these bodies are mangled to fuck. Yeah, it's
13:32
Speaker 1: got like scratch marks all over and like ripped. I
13:34
Speaker 1: think this one's stomach was like ripped to pieces or
13:37
Speaker 1: something like. This wasn't done by a human. Can I
13:39
Speaker 1: say something? Yeah, you know what? In Crescent City the
13:47
Speaker 1: murder is also very gruesome. Sary j Mass has a thing. Well,
13:51
Speaker 1: they say they're all connected. I assume at one point
13:54
Speaker 1: there's going to be like a moment. Imagine imagine if
13:56
Speaker 1: like you're at the same point. Imagine if imagine if
13:59
Speaker 1: it's what's killing it, the thing the fucking champions in
14:02
Speaker 1: Throne of Glass is what did the murder in Crescent City?
14:06
Speaker 1: You could have like a double orgasm. You'd be like, yeah,
14:09
Speaker 1: I actually that'd be like if I was masturbating, were
14:11
Speaker 1: rubbing my fucking aprost at the same time. What's apparently
14:16
Speaker 1: that's a crazy orgasm for a man you are getting
14:20
Speaker 1: weird of by the day, my friend, it's so weird.
14:22
Speaker 1: I apparently it's a really good orgasm. Okay, Okay, give
14:27
Speaker 1: it a go and get back to me, I think.
14:29
Speaker 1: And at some point they had a conversation where they
14:32
Speaker 1: want Solanna's help a little bit in finding out who's
14:35
Speaker 1: doing these murders because Klee's got no clue. He doesn't
14:37
Speaker 1: have a Scooby doo. What's going on? Yeah, Kale's like
14:40
Speaker 1: just like, I don't know I'm failing. Yeah yeah, yeah,
14:45
Speaker 1: So she goes takes a look at her, and they're
14:47
Speaker 1: having more conversations, and Solana says at one point she
14:51
Speaker 1: she wanted to be a healer at the very very start,
14:54
Speaker 1: that's all she ever wanted to be. Yep. And they're
14:56
Speaker 1: both opening up about their past a little bit, and
14:58
Speaker 1: we were finding out a little bit too that Dorian
15:01
Speaker 1: has a bit of resentment maybe is the word. Yeah, Yeah,
15:05
Speaker 1: he doesn't like his dad. Yeah, he doesn't like his
15:07
Speaker 1: dad at all, or like, yeah, he's got a bit
15:10
Speaker 1: of a vendetta against him that he wants to prove
15:12
Speaker 1: to be different. Yeah, it's kind of hard. It's like
15:14
Speaker 1: he doesn't agree that his dad's like a conqueror. Yeah.
15:17
Speaker 1: But at the same time, he's like telling himself he
15:20
Speaker 1: doesn't have a choice, yeah, when it's like everyone has
15:25
Speaker 1: a choice, you know what I mean, Like he he's
15:29
Speaker 1: choosing the easy path of saying he doesn't have a choice,
15:32
Speaker 1: when it's like you could if you really disagree with him,
15:36
Speaker 1: fuck off. One. I think too that like it's it's
15:42
Speaker 1: cool because like I guess, like in Akata, how did
15:48
Speaker 1: someone put it really well, it's always a happy ending.
15:51
Speaker 1: Like the positiveness always wins and the negative always gets
15:54
Speaker 1: like thrown to the side. But sometimes I want the
15:56
Speaker 1: negativity to win. I want a conqueror and the killer
15:58
Speaker 1: to win. You know what. Yeah, I'm still having trouble
16:04
Speaker 1: picturing Selena as a mass murderer. But she's not a
16:08
Speaker 1: mass murderer. She's not a murderer's murderer. She's a sassin.
16:12
Speaker 1: It's the same thing. But she seems to have so
16:15
Speaker 1: much remorse and empathy towards everything, you know what. I
16:20
Speaker 1: I don't picture has a murderer either. No, I'm just
16:24
Speaker 1: thinking some baddie who fucking everyone likes, and she's got
16:27
Speaker 1: a really good personality, real tough upbringing, but she just
16:29
Speaker 1: happens to be a murderer basically, just like someone that
16:34
Speaker 1: was adopted and had just like a troubled childhood and
16:39
Speaker 1: somehow he's literally just yet murderer. And she and she
16:42
Speaker 1: even talks about like I don't know if you up
16:45
Speaker 1: to it yet, but just be giving thing away, Like
16:46
Speaker 1: she talks about how she doesn't enjoy killing. No, she
16:51
Speaker 1: doesn't know, she does it because she has to. I guess,
16:52
Speaker 1: I guess that's the whole point. She does it because
16:54
Speaker 1: that's all she like could do to survive. But at
16:57
Speaker 1: the same time, it's like everyone has a choice, Selena. Yeah,
17:00
Speaker 1: it's like you had to enjoy some of it and
17:04
Speaker 1: you got really good at it. And then like there's
17:06
Speaker 1: a hop, skip and a jump. There's heap going on
17:08
Speaker 1: in the background with them two getting closer. There's a
17:10
Speaker 1: lot of dialogue in these chapters of just like Solanna
17:14
Speaker 1: and Dorian getting a lot closer and like having flirtatious banter.
17:17
Speaker 1: It's like it reminded me of like a high school relationship.
17:21
Speaker 1: So yeah, I suppose that pays to when Sarah wrote
17:26
Speaker 1: this when she was like twelve and then rewrote it
17:27
Speaker 1: when she was twenty or something. Yeah, something, and then yeah,
17:29
Speaker 1: she rewrote it to make it a bit better. But
17:31
Speaker 1: it's like definitely that early yeah for romance. But we're
17:36
Speaker 1: up to the next competition and she wakes that morning too.
17:40
Speaker 1: Was one of the servants in her room? I think maybe?
17:46
Speaker 1: And was it one of the servants? I think it
17:48
Speaker 1: was she worked to someone in her room. The next
17:50
Speaker 1: test is potions, which is kind of Yeah, it's always
17:53
Speaker 1: usually Kale that goes and gets her. Yeah, but was
17:58
Speaker 1: it the servant or was it like some want a dream?
18:00
Speaker 1: I can't remember and she said, look to your right,
18:02
Speaker 1: Oh no it was. It was the first Queen of
18:08
Speaker 1: Ada Lane and she's a fair she's fae. And then
18:11
Speaker 1: she had a dream and dream. Yeah, yeah, she came
18:15
Speaker 1: to in her dream. But it's like it's in the dream,
18:17
Speaker 1: but it's also like not like it is real, like
18:19
Speaker 1: she actually does come. And she comes and she's like,
18:23
Speaker 1: all right, basically I've come here again to be like
18:27
Speaker 1: make sure you win this fucking championship. And Slamna's like, look,
18:32
Speaker 1: I want to win it, not necessarily for you, more
18:35
Speaker 1: for me. You're just lucky that I actually want to
18:37
Speaker 1: win it. Yeah, And then she's like, anyway, here's an ambulant.
18:42
Speaker 1: Keep you safe. Pretty sure you get the ambulant ages
18:44
Speaker 1: go anyway, but she goes, I'll give you one tip
18:47
Speaker 1: if you're struggling, look to your right, look to She doesn't, yeah,
18:50
Speaker 1: she she doesn't tell Alanda that it's poisonous. Yeah yeah, yeah,
18:54
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, and then help skipping a job. The next
18:57
Speaker 1: competition is poisons are about a start, and then they're
19:01
Speaker 1: going through all the different poisons and all like the
19:03
Speaker 1: bell the Bellbane and all the different things, and Kale
19:07
Speaker 1: sucks at it. Not Kale Cane sucks at it. They're
19:10
Speaker 1: all like dropping like flies. And then Selanna's coming and
19:13
Speaker 1: she looks to her right and it's that p law
19:15
Speaker 1: Dui bloke who's like really good at potions. He's an assassins.
19:19
Speaker 1: His specialty is poison. Yeah, and everyone was giving him
19:22
Speaker 1: shit at the start because he was like, oh small
19:23
Speaker 1: and duib and he's like, I'm a potions master and yeah,
19:27
Speaker 1: Everyone's like who cares? And they kind of like team
19:29
Speaker 1: up to get it right in the right order. You
19:31
Speaker 1: got to place all the potions in the right order,
19:34
Speaker 1: and then did they have to drink it too? So
19:36
Speaker 1: and then if you and then if you get it wrong,
19:39
Speaker 1: you're like drop dead and they've got to take you
19:40
Speaker 1: to the infirmary. So I think what happens is you
19:43
Speaker 1: have to drink, so you order them in like what
19:47
Speaker 1: position you think is like most poisonous to the least
19:50
Speaker 1: poisonous or something, and then one of them is just
19:53
Speaker 1: no poison at all, and then you have to drink
19:55
Speaker 1: which one you think is no poison at all? Yeah,
19:58
Speaker 1: And a bunch of people like they had the antidotes
20:01
Speaker 1: on end, but like a bunch of people get poisoned.
20:03
Speaker 1: But yeah, she got lucky by having a quick squeeze.
20:06
Speaker 1: And did she come second appeal Ale, Yeah, they both
20:10
Speaker 1: they both just won and I guess, like I think
20:12
Speaker 1: he came second, but ye, actually he helped her out heaps.
20:15
Speaker 1: I know the challenges were shit, but like I don't know,
20:16
Speaker 1: I guess it's more about like the people not the
20:21
Speaker 1: The challenges were pretty boring. I feel like I could
20:23
Speaker 1: do those challenge. Ships were like creativity level like three yeah,
20:27
Speaker 1: not even three two. Like, I guess what they're trying
20:30
Speaker 1: to be is the King's champion though when he wants
20:32
Speaker 1: him to go do all his dirty work, so like
20:35
Speaker 1: they're probably gonna have to deal in poisons and like
20:37
Speaker 1: be able to shoot a fucking arrow from you know,
20:39
Speaker 1: one hundred two hundred meters type thing, true logical ways
20:43
Speaker 1: and climber castle wall like all that stuff. Yeah, that's
20:48
Speaker 1: about it for chapters thirty one and thirty two. Sorry,
20:51
Speaker 1: that's about it for chapters thirty to thirty one on
20:53
Speaker 1: to thirty two and thirty three. Nhimia takes h Solanna
20:58
Speaker 1: to the kennels where Dorian tells her they plan to
21:01
Speaker 1: kill one of those pups because he was a mutt,
21:07
Speaker 1: not pure bread, and yeah, there are as a very
21:09
Speaker 1: bloody pure breads back then. Eight Yeah, and he just
21:12
Speaker 1: wasn't very well trained and he's not they use their
21:14
Speaker 1: dogs like hunting or whatever. She's like, Selena's like no, no, no, no, no,
21:18
Speaker 1: please don't kill him. And I'm like, you're a fucking murderer.
21:21
Speaker 1: Why do you care. It's a good question, you ask
21:26
Speaker 1: a good question. And then I don't think at that
21:29
Speaker 1: point Dorian did anything, but we find it out later
21:32
Speaker 1: that he does. But I was just wigging that whole point.
21:36
Speaker 1: And then also to me, like is this dog going
21:39
Speaker 1: to become just like a huge part of the series now,
21:41
Speaker 1: like her best friend. Oh, I didn't even I didn't
21:44
Speaker 1: put two and two together. Hey yeah, I don't know.
21:48
Speaker 1: I wonder because because I also thought it was weird
21:52
Speaker 1: will hop skipping a jump. At the end, Dorian gives
21:54
Speaker 1: her the puppy as a present, Yeah, as a gift,
21:57
Speaker 1: and I'm like, why are they giving this, like Assassin
22:01
Speaker 1: who's in a competition a dog, because because Dorian's schmitten. Yeah,
22:06
Speaker 1: but surely someone's like, what the fuck you, Dori. Bro, Like,
22:10
Speaker 1: surely someone's gonna be like, what are you doing giving
22:12
Speaker 1: her a dog? She could die to Bro, I know,
22:14
Speaker 1: like just you wade as well, like she you think
22:17
Speaker 1: she she makes out that she's like this m path
22:19
Speaker 1: towards like animals and ship right, and then she gets
22:22
Speaker 1: the dog and she's like, oh, hectic, thanks, like I'm
22:23
Speaker 1: gonna name him fleet foot because he's gonna be faster
22:27
Speaker 1: than you're pure breads or something like that. And I
22:29
Speaker 1: was like whatever, and she's like, I want him in
22:31
Speaker 1: the kennels every day being trained, like I want him
22:34
Speaker 1: to be a good dog. I was like, do it yourself, Yeah,
22:39
Speaker 1: your dog. And I was thinking she's barket orders like
22:41
Speaker 1: she's a bloody ruler. Yeah, you're you're a slave three
22:46
Speaker 1: bunts ago. I don't want him pissing and shipping in
22:48
Speaker 1: here in my room. It's like, why did you get
22:50
Speaker 1: a dog? Dad? What do you mean? You just want
22:55
Speaker 1: all the perks of dog beble to put any work here?
22:57
Speaker 1: You want a cat, That's what you want? A cat
23:00
Speaker 1: that's honest to God is what I am gonna start
23:03
Speaker 1: saying to people that have dogs that like don't want
23:06
Speaker 1: to take them for walks and shit, and they just
23:07
Speaker 1: want to have them as like a little lap thing
23:08
Speaker 1: and just let this dog just be like this anxious
23:10
Speaker 1: mess because it stays inside this whole day, all every day.
23:13
Speaker 1: It's like, no, you wanted a cat, just get a
23:15
Speaker 1: cat because dogs dogs are cool oray, yeah, okay. So
23:21
Speaker 1: what's going on here is a couple of side quests.
23:23
Speaker 1: Like during each chapter, there's like little sub chapters nearly
23:26
Speaker 1: and you'll get different povs. So Caltaane is getting some
23:30
Speaker 1: gnari headaches and she's full of smoking opium and it's
23:32
Speaker 1: getting the high as fuck, right, and remember Duke Parrington's
23:37
Speaker 1: her love it to be. They're not wed yet, but
23:40
Speaker 1: they will be, to keep that in mind. And now Nahemia,
23:44
Speaker 1: she's obviously the princess of like Elway, I think is
23:47
Speaker 1: how you pronounce it. And she's come to Elena and
23:52
Speaker 1: she's been like, yo, just found out the king while
23:57
Speaker 1: on his travels captured and killed five hundred ill were rebels, Yeah,
24:03
Speaker 1: and they were just like pretty devoted and she was
24:08
Speaker 1: like obviously upset and I don't know she'd live been
24:10
Speaker 1: an enemy enemy territory, yeah, which is but she can
24:14
Speaker 1: she can she confide it in Selena she's got a friend. Yeah,
24:17
Speaker 1: and I guess, yeah. Is that like to add fuel
24:20
Speaker 1: to the fire? I guess kind of. I don't know.
24:23
Speaker 1: It's all a little bit like mad bread crummy in
24:26
Speaker 1: my opinion. And then chapters thirty four and thirty five,
24:29
Speaker 1: Dorian's still saying he doesn't agree with a lot of
24:31
Speaker 1: the stuff his dad's doing, blah blah blah blah blah,
24:34
Speaker 1: and tells her that there is going to be a
24:37
Speaker 1: mass ball at Yillmus. Yeah, it's like she was like Christmas.
24:42
Speaker 1: What was the one in Akatar? I thought it was
24:45
Speaker 1: that and they just called it. Is there a yumis
24:47
Speaker 1: in Akata? No? I remember the Yeah, Solstice, I was
24:51
Speaker 1: thinking that's what yull miss is. Yeah, probably, but it
24:53
Speaker 1: wasn't hyped up as much, and there wasn't like any
24:55
Speaker 1: I suppose there's no magic, but it's not as much
24:57
Speaker 1: fucking they're not allowed to use magic. But Selanna and
25:00
Speaker 1: and it's low to go. Yeah, in all way, have
25:03
Speaker 1: they had the Yulman's boy yet? No? No, no, they're about
25:06
Speaker 1: to ah. But Dorian notices the amulet that Selena's wearing
25:10
Speaker 1: looks like the eye of Elena. Elena, I was thinking
25:15
Speaker 1: it was dumb that she was wearing it, and then
25:16
Speaker 1: he tells goes on to tell some story about like
25:18
Speaker 1: it's been lost for like a thousand years and what
25:21
Speaker 1: it used to mean, and then she's wigging out, saying
25:23
Speaker 1: like why is Dorian talking about magic when his father
25:25
Speaker 1: has banished it for so long? And then she's like, oh,
25:29
Speaker 1: I probably shouldn't be wearing this. She needs to wear
25:32
Speaker 1: it for protection. Yeah, I guess be like fucking put
25:34
Speaker 1: it onto your shirt or something, put it between your
25:36
Speaker 1: boobies in your pocket. Yeah. At this point, is is
25:42
Speaker 1: Selena teaching Princess Nahemia better English? Yeah? They are, So
25:48
Speaker 1: she's been doing this study. So they're actually like mad
25:50
Speaker 1: good friends. They spent like an hour every day together
25:52
Speaker 1: like study in English, right, because they both speak because sorry,
25:57
Speaker 1: Selena speaks really fluent in both languages, and so I
26:00
Speaker 1: don't know, I can't really remember what happened, But like,
26:03
Speaker 1: Nahemia gets a bit distant, right, She's a bit distant.
26:06
Speaker 1: And then in the library that they've given Slain access to,
26:10
Speaker 1: she goes in there and she sees Nahemia, and Nahemia
26:13
Speaker 1: is like sees her, and she just like bugers off.
26:14
Speaker 1: She's like, yeah, go away whatever, and she's like, oh,
26:16
Speaker 1: dang I upset you. But she goes over and she
26:18
Speaker 1: sees what Nahimi was reading, and she was reading a
26:22
Speaker 1: book about the wardmarks and all these like wardmarks of
26:27
Speaker 1: wa Elaine is like mad interested in because there's like
26:30
Speaker 1: always been the wardmarks that have always been plastered around
26:33
Speaker 1: the killings. There's wardmarks around the castle and then like
26:37
Speaker 1: specifically where those gargoyles are. She's just wigging out about
26:40
Speaker 1: his wardmarks AnyWho. And basically, yeah, Nahmia has just gone
26:44
Speaker 1: cold Turkey and just like ghosted her. So she knows something.
26:48
Speaker 1: She's suss on Nahemia and she's starting to suspect Nahemia
26:51
Speaker 1: could potentially be the killer. Yeah, and then hop, skip
26:56
Speaker 1: and a jump. Last couple chapters are before the Yilmas Ball.
27:01
Speaker 1: Dorian gives that puppy, she calls it fleet Foot, and
27:05
Speaker 1: then he bugers off to Yilma's ball. And then Slanner
27:08
Speaker 1: comes up with this massive plan with one of the slaves.
27:10
Speaker 1: This is where the slave came in. So like she
27:14
Speaker 1: dresses up, she looks like a baddie ten out of
27:16
Speaker 1: ten and then she's like, we just walk out of here,
27:19
Speaker 1: and you say, why why you let Slanner? You got
27:21
Speaker 1: to get to the ball. Yeah, so the guards don't
27:23
Speaker 1: stop her. Yeah, so the guards don't stop her. She
27:26
Speaker 1: goes to the ball. Kale's there, not wearing a mask.
27:29
Speaker 1: He's too cool. Kal like comes up and talks to
27:32
Speaker 1: her for a bit. Also, Slanner's looking like a baddie. Yeah,
27:37
Speaker 1: I know. This is when I was like first pitching
27:39
Speaker 1: and she's put on weight and she's looking she's like
27:41
Speaker 1: saying like she's sure. No, she got a period back
27:44
Speaker 1: at one point too, and Dorian wigged out and he
27:46
Speaker 1: didn't know how to talk to her. So she's looking
27:51
Speaker 1: like a battie. And then also she dances with Dorian
27:55
Speaker 1: all night. That yeah, all night, and then she dips
27:59
Speaker 1: for a little bit. It doesn't say by to him,
28:01
Speaker 1: and then he comes back to her room like pretty quickly,
28:05
Speaker 1: like he wouldn't have had much time to talk to
28:06
Speaker 1: anyone else, she realizes, and they get into it, having
28:09
Speaker 1: a deep conversations, and then she gives him no, he
28:13
Speaker 1: gave her a little smooch. But then she kind of
28:17
Speaker 1: like wigs out and like gets all scared and pulls
28:20
Speaker 1: away and that makes it mad or awkward between them both,
28:23
Speaker 1: and then he's like oh and then he's like, oh,
28:26
Speaker 1: just have a good night to be fair. It's like,
28:29
Speaker 1: what is he doing? Oh yeah, he's in love but
28:32
Speaker 1: love conquers all and she's there's a bit of a
28:35
Speaker 1: love triangle going on here with kle Dorian and Selena.
28:38
Speaker 1: Yeah in my opinion, Oh, I agree, And I read
28:42
Speaker 1: chapter forty. Was I meant to? I don't know, yeah,
28:46
Speaker 1: I can't remember. But Duke Parrington tells Lady Cartain who
28:51
Speaker 1: Selena really is, which is like bomb drop yeah, and
28:56
Speaker 1: Kartain is like what. And then they go on to
29:00
Speaker 1: a plan about how Cain thinks he can kill her
29:05
Speaker 1: in the final challenge, but they don't want to leave
29:07
Speaker 1: it up to fate, so they're talking about drugonaut just
29:10
Speaker 1: enough that she's off her game and then but they
29:13
Speaker 1: can't really tell that she yeah, yeah, so that's and
29:16
Speaker 1: they want Lady Cartaine to do it too. I think
29:20
Speaker 1: she's got the sleight of hand. She's like, she's a
29:23
Speaker 1: bit iffy because she's like it, doesn't want to be involved.
29:25
Speaker 1: But that's where we left it, and they're thinking that's
29:27
Speaker 1: how so Kine's going to kill her, but with the
29:30
Speaker 1: help of a little bit of drug in Yeah. And
29:32
Speaker 1: also like keep in mind that Kaltaine's obsessed with Dorian,
29:35
Speaker 1: wants to marry Dorian. She doesn't actually like do parents
29:38
Speaker 1: that much. Yeah, it's kind of like old, fat and ugly,
29:40
Speaker 1: I think. And he gives that vibe. And we also
29:46
Speaker 1: know that she's going to do anything to be with Dorian,
29:48
Speaker 1: so getting rid of Selena is like in her best
29:51
Speaker 1: interest and she's like a cow doing Yeah. And that's
29:54
Speaker 1: that's where we ended lots of fearless predictions to one
29:59
Speaker 1: of the fictional man and that we always done and
30:05
Speaker 1: streaming again. This is the Relentables Book Club. Let the
30:09
Speaker 1: throw in the darks begin. Alrighty thoughts, feelings, and predictions.
30:15
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm feeling grade A. I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
30:20
Speaker 1: It's very different to Akatar, but I like, I like
30:23
Speaker 1: the vibe it's giving. I feel like this book was
30:25
Speaker 1: a big setup, but it was a boring I I agree. Like,
30:29
Speaker 1: I think this book is almost similar to a Quarter
30:32
Speaker 1: of Thorns and Roses. Like Quarter of Thorns and Roses
30:35
Speaker 1: when you really think about it, it's a relatively boring book. Yeah,
30:40
Speaker 1: Like we were excited because it was all new, but
30:43
Speaker 1: it's like relatively boring in terms of like sorry, objectively
30:46
Speaker 1: boring compared to the rest of the series one percent.
30:49
Speaker 1: And I feel like, I don't know, I feel like
30:51
Speaker 1: it's good for new readers or like novices like myself
30:55
Speaker 1: who just want like a semi easy read, and it's
30:58
Speaker 1: like it's pretty easy to follow, but it's still interesting.
31:01
Speaker 1: And then after like this much information, it starts to
31:04
Speaker 1: turn up like you don't have to be I feel
31:06
Speaker 1: like Fourth Wing you have to be like fully invested in,
31:08
Speaker 1: like looking at every single fucking word, like and I
31:11
Speaker 1: actually quite I'd like that because I'm pretty well I
31:15
Speaker 1: integrate myself into the fucking Yeah, because what I was
31:18
Speaker 1: having to do with Fourth Wing was like I'd put
31:20
Speaker 1: the book down. I was like, I got to think
31:21
Speaker 1: about this shit where it's like I don't like all
31:22
Speaker 1: that where you're about to get into like the classic
31:28
Speaker 1: last twenty percent of the s J Mass Yeah, I
31:30
Speaker 1: forgot about the Sara J Mass effect. So predictions, this
31:33
Speaker 1: is where my predictions could hit A Oh, so I
31:39
Speaker 1: think they Lady Captain is going to drug Selena okay,
31:43
Speaker 1: but she's that much of a fucking beast that like
31:46
Speaker 1: she still wins and kills Kane because it's in like
31:50
Speaker 1: a one on one battle or like a one we
31:53
Speaker 1: there's all three of the last three or four competitors,
31:56
Speaker 1: competitors all going against each other, and I can oh, yeah,
32:00
Speaker 1: I reckon. She does get drugs, but she's that good
32:02
Speaker 1: that she still wins. And then Cale's just a good bloke.
32:06
Speaker 1: I feel like he's actually not going to play that
32:08
Speaker 1: much of a big part in the end. What does
32:10
Speaker 1: Dorian Selena? Do they fall in love? I don't think so.
32:14
Speaker 1: He has to do something with his dad butt, but
32:16
Speaker 1: he doesn't kill him. He like, oh, does he get banished?
32:21
Speaker 1: Does Dorian and Selena get banished and they run away
32:23
Speaker 1: after the competition? Oh, that'd be cool. What's the best
32:29
Speaker 1: facial expression of me to not give anything away what
32:31
Speaker 1: you just did? Yeah, just like keep straight face. Yeah,
