Episode 141 – Midnight Bayou
To ease ourselves back into reading garbage after our winter break, we had returning guest Christine join us for another book by Our Lady Nora Roberts. This time around, we read Midnight Bayou, a Louisiana love story for the ages between a man and home renovations. You’re going to have to turn your volume way up if you want to listen to this episode over all that Mardi Gras ruckus!
Readers advisory: Here.

Episode 118 – Naked in Death
As the talents of Our Lady Nora Roberts cannot be held by one pen name alone, we were joined by fellow Nora devotee Christine to investigate Naked in Death by J. D. Robb. It’s a romantic suspense novel set in a future that is in some ways better than our present day (the USA banned guns!) and in some ways much worse (coffee beans are nearly extinct due to deforestation)! Still, no matter what year it is, Nora is here to provide us with excellent strong female protagonists and the male love interests who almost deserve them.
Content warning: This book and our discussion of it contains sexual assault and, um, death.
Readers advisory: Here.

Candy Pairing: Christine says Starbursts, Kait says Oreos, Renata says chocolate covered espresso beans.
Coming up next: After by Anna Todd.

Episode 117 – Year One
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and we feel fine, since we’re spending it with Kathryn from the Truer Words podcast! Our Lady Nora Roberts has launched a post-apocalyptic series with Year One. Don’t worry–even though 90% of the human population has been killed by a mysterious, magical virus, Nora wouldn’t kill the dog.
Content warning: This book and our discussion of it contains sexual assault, graphic illness, and, well, the death of 90% of Earth’s population. The dog is fine though.
Readers advisory: Here.

Episode 93 – Angels Fall
Our February observance of Nora Roberts Month continues, as we read Angels Fall with author and longtime Nora devotee Christine Ricketts. It’s a quirky small-town romance between a traumatized chef and a mystery writer who hates vegetables. What could go wrong? A murder? An elaborate town-wide gaslighting campaign? A lack of fresh #herbs? All this and more, but spoilers…it ends happily ever after.
Content warning: This book and our discussion of it contains a fictional mass shooting.
Readers advisory: Here.
Footnotes: Concept of Waffles Newsletter
Candy pairing: Christine says hotel chocolates, Kait says trail mix, Renata says #herbs.
